Eddy vs LIKK Technologies
Eddy vs LIKK: which leak detection system is right for your building?
LIKK and Eddy are close on paper: a wireless sensor network that reaches through concrete, automatic shutoff and a service model with no large upfront capex. The difference is the human layer. Eddy operators confirm and coordinate every event, and the program follows the building from construction into operations.
Why choose Eddy over LIKK
LIKK is a capable sensor-and-shutoff platform. Eddy adds the staffed response and the lifecycle around it.
Operators who call, not just automation
LIKK runs an automated detect-and-shutoff platform. Eddy adds a 24/7 monitoring center whose operators confirm the event, work the escalation list and stay on the line until the property team responds. A staffed water-incident center is not the same as an autonomous platform.
Construction through operations on one program
Eddy plans against the MEP drawings during fit-out and carries the same hardware and monitoring into occupancy. LIKK's deployments center on operating buildings.
Carrier-ready documentation
Every confirmed Eddy event closes with a Leak Incident Report built for carriers, with documented premium savings of up to 20% and deductible reductions of up to $150K.
Shutoff that scales to the mains
Eddy IQ integrates metering and shutoff on smaller lines, and Eddy Link drives motorized valves up to 18 inches on the larger lines, on Eddy's own valves or valves already in place.
Eddy vs LIKK: feature by feature
The hardware models are close. Here is how the two compare on response, lifecycle, reporting and shutoff.
Monitoring and response
Eddy
In-house monitoring center staffed 24/7 by operators trained on water incidents who confirm the event and coordinate the response per the building runbook.
LIKK Technologies
Automated detection with multi-cycle verification and intelligent shutoff. A staffed live monitoring center is not publicly specified.
Why it matters: Automation closes the obvious events. A human closes the ambiguous ones and coordinates the response your team actually runs.
Connectivity
Eddy
LoRaWAN at 915 MHz, engineered for concrete cores and tall buildings.
LIKK Technologies
Proprietary network stack that operates independently of building Wi-Fi, designed to reach through concrete and steel.
Why it matters: Both are built to reach where Wi-Fi and cellular fail. This is a point of agreement.
Automatic shutoff
Eddy
Eddy IQ on smaller lines and Eddy Link driving valves up to 18 inches on larger lines, on Eddy's own or existing valves.
LIKK Technologies
An intelligent shutoff module that integrates the sensor platform with multiple valves across the property.
Why it matters: Both stop the water. Eddy reads and drives existing meters and valves, so a retrofit does not start from scratch.
Detection methods
Eddy
Eddy H2O 3-in-1 sensors plus inline flow metering on the mains and risers.
LIKK Technologies
LIKK H2O wireless sensors placed at high-risk locations, with verification cycles before alerting.
Why it matters: Point sensors and flow intelligence catch different failures. Carrying both matters.
Construction-to-operations coverage
Eddy
Same hardware and monitoring from fit-out through occupancy, with no second install at handover.
LIKK Technologies
Deployments center on operating buildings.
Why it matters: The most expensive leaks often happen during construction, before anyone is on site.
Insurance reporting
Eddy
Leak Incident Reports formatted for carriers, plus portfolio summaries and documented renewal outcomes.
LIKK Technologies
Risk-mitigation service framing. Carrier-formatted, per-incident reporting is not publicly detailed.
Why it matters: Renewals turn on a documented response chain a carrier can underwrite against.
Commercial model
Eddy
Managed service with a dedicated project manager and a Building Success Manager after go-live.
LIKK Technologies
Risk Mitigation as a Service, structured to avoid large upfront capex.
Why it matters: Both spread cost over time. Eddy pairs the service with named owners for the deployment.
