Water Alarms

The WA500 Water Alarm sounds locally when it comes into contact with water, usually in the form of a leak from a water heater, plumbing or air-conditioning pan. General also sells a wireless version,(the WA700 Water Alarm with a 120-foot range. That’s typically sufficient to allow placement of the water sensor-transmitter in the basement and the receiver in an upstairs bedroom. The receiver can simultaneously monitor up to four sensor-transmitters; two come with the system and are also sold separately.
