Tools and Hardware Reviews of Glentronics, Inc. BWD-HWA Basement Watchdog Water Sensor and AlarmCustomer Review: The perfect alarm! Summary: 5 Stars
I had no idea that my a/c unit was leaking. The tube/pipe got clogged with some debris. The water alarm sensed the water and went off. Had I not had this alarm, my new floors would have been ruined. The water was puddling in the back of the a/c closet, and until it had reached the hallway, I never would have known! That would have been too late.....
Customer Review: Too many false alarms Summary: 2 Stars
I installed this in my sump pump basin. Over the winter condensation collected to the extent that it set off the alarm. This happened twice. The contacts should have been designed to dangle separately from a support. The support collected the moisture causing the two contacts to complete the alarm's circuit.
There is no switch to turn off the alarm - so while it is screaming LOUDLY you have to take the battery out. I don't know why it didn't stop after I dried the moisture from the contacts.
Customer Review: Water Alarm Summary: 5 Stars
If it wasn't for this product, I would have lost my entire basement, boiler.hot water heater and major appliances. It saved all of them by alerting me to the first sign of water during the nor'easter of last April.
Customer Review: Water Alarm alerts you to water problem Summary: 5 Stars
The Water Alarm also has a 6-foot sensor wire, so that you can extend the sensor into a sump pump, or the alarm will sound before water spills out onto the floor. The alarm plugs into the wall plus has a 9 Volt battery backup. We use ours for the sump pump & it works wonderfully!
When the alarm goes off...we pull up on the sump pump floater string & the sump pump starts right away and the alarm turns off right away.
The alarm is loud. Our house is a ranch style, a bit over 1,100 sq ft...the sump pump is in the basement...opposite corner than our bedrooms on the main floor...I could still hear the alarm going off in the middle of the night.
This item works as it says it will, I'd purchase this item again. We purchased our's at a major hardware store in our area for about $10
