How Smart Valves Safeguard Properties and NOI

Remote-controlled water shutoffs that stop leaks instantly — protecting buildings, residents, and NOI from costly water damage disasters.

 

Every property owner knows the nightmare of water damage. A single leak can destroy units, disrupt residents, frustrate hotel guests, and trigger six-figure insurance claims. That’s why smart water management is no longer optional. It’s essential.

Sensor Industries’ LoRaWAN Smart Shutoff Valve gives owners and operators a new level of control. By combining wireless connectivity, battery power that lasts more than a decade, and real-time remote operation, this technology ensures that leaks are stopped before they become losses.

Why shutoff valves matter

Water leaks are the number one cause of property damage in multifamily housing and hospitality properties. Traditional response times leave too much room for risk. A toilet flapper running overnight, a pipe bursting in a guest room, or an unnoticed drip in a utility closet can turn into thousands of gallons lost — and thousands of dollars wasted.

A smart shutoff valve closes that gap. The moment a leak is detected, water flow can be cut off at the source. That means protection for your buildings, your residents, and your bottom line.

Designed for real-world demands

The Sensor Industries Smart Shutoff Valve is engineered for the real conditions of multifamily and hospitality properties.

The ROI of prevention

Leak events create costs on multiple fronts. Beyond repairs, owners face higher insurance premiums, operational disruptions, and lost revenue from vacant or out-of-service units.

By implementing smart shutoff valves, operators reduce water loss and repair expenses, avoid disruptions that hurt reputation and occupancy, strengthen their case for favorable insurance coverage, and protect NOI with proactive asset management.
