3-in-1 wireless leak detection sensor
Eddy H2O
Eddy H2O is a 3-in-1 wireless sensor that detects water, temperature and humidity where leaks start. It alerts the moment water touches it, reports over LoRaWAN with no building Wi-Fi and runs 7 to 10 years on one battery.

Watch Eddy H2O catch a leak at the source.
Simulate a leak to follow the alert from the floor to your team and the monitoring center. Then look inside at the battery, radio and sensors.
3-in-1 wireless sensor
Eddy H2O
Sits on the floor wherever leaks start. Water that reaches the two contacts on its base sets off an alert right away. It also tracks ambient temperature and humidity.
- Detects water, temperature and humidity
- Reports wirelessly over LoRaWAN to the building's Eddy Gateway
- Installs in under a minute with no drywall cuts
Run a scenario
Each scenario, step by step
A leak under the sink
- A supply line under the sink starts to drip.
- Water spreads across the floor toward the sensor.
- Water bridges the two contacts on the base.
- The sensor sends the alert over LoRaWAN in seconds.
- The alert and its exact location reach your team and the monitoring center at the same time.
Clearing the alert
- Once the base is dry, the alert clears.

What it does
Eddy H2O is the point-of-leak sensor that pairs with the Eddy IQ flow meter to give buildings both detection and response. Place it next to dishwashers, fan coil units, water heaters and risers and the LoRaWAN network reports the moment water makes contact.
Every Eddy deployment ships with a connected shutoff valve, so an H2O alert is more than a notification. It is the start of a confirmed response chain.
Immediate water-contact alerts
Reports the moment water makes contact. The monitoring center confirms and routes the alert through the building's escalation list.
3-in-1 sensing
Water presence, ambient temperature and ambient humidity in a single puck. Threshold-based notifications are configurable per zone.
Under-a-minute install
Drop-in placement with optional sensor holder and baseboard accessories. No disruption to occupied suites.
Concrete-friendly LoRaWAN
915 MHz long-range radio penetrates concrete walls and mechanical shafts where Wi-Fi and cellular drop out.
7 to 10 year battery life
Primary lithium battery rated for 7 to 10 years, so deployment scales without an annual battery program.
Where it fits
Eddy H2O sits next to plumbing and water-related appliances. The system uses it together with the Eddy IQ to provide combined point-of-leak and flow-based protection.
Laundry rooms
Washing machines, dryers and utility sinks, where a slow supply-line leak runs for days unseen.
Kitchens
Under sinks and behind dishwashers and fridges, the fixtures that drip first.
Bathrooms
Toilets, vanities and tubs, the most common source of in-suite water damage.
Mechanical rooms
Water heaters, boilers and fan-coil units, near the building's highest-volume risk.
Risers and concealed spaces
In-wall risers and behind-wall runs, where a hidden leak cascades between floors.
Elevator pits and common areas
Catch flooding before the next car descends. Common in high-rise multi-family.
How it connects
How an Eddy H2O alert travels.
No wiring and no building Wi-Fi. The sensor reports over LoRaWAN, a wireless signal that passes through concrete and steel, to the nearest Eddy Gateway. The rules you set decide what happens next.
Swipe sideways to see the whole drawing
- Eddy H2O sits on the floor of a high-risk area, close to its water source, in a sensor holder or upright in a baseboard holder. It needs no wiring and runs 7 to 10 years on a primary lithium battery.
- When water touches its contacts it reports wirelessly over 915 MHz LoRaWAN, a signal that passes through concrete and steel where Wi-Fi and cellular often fail, to an Eddy Gateway within 300 ft of most devices, about one every two floors in a high-rise.
- The gateway connects to the Eddy cloud over Ethernet or LTE. The cloud sends SMS, email and app alerts and the monitoring center calls. A read-only API shares the alert with your BMS. A rule can close a valve through Eddy Link or Eddy IQ.
Works with
Eddy H2O is one part of a single Eddy program. Every device reports into the same dashboard and the same 24/7 monitoring center.
Eddy IQ
Adds flow-based detection and an onboard shutoff valve on ¾ and 1 inch lines, so leaks get caught at the source and in the pipe.
Eddy Link
Drives the building's shutoff valves, so a water alert from Eddy H2O can close a main, zone or riser automatically.
Monitoring center
Every alert reaches trained operators 24/7, who call your team through the escalation protocol.

Eddy H2O FAQ
How long does the Eddy H2O battery last?
7 to 10 years. It runs on a primary lithium battery, so there's no wiring and deployments scale without an annual battery program.
Does Eddy H2O need building Wi-Fi?
No. It reports over Eddy's own 915 MHz LoRaWAN network to the building's Eddy Gateway. The long-range signal holds through concrete, and the system needs no building Wi-Fi or tenant network.
What does Eddy H2O detect?
Water, temperature and humidity. Water touching the contacts on its base sets off an alert right away. Temperature (14 to 185 °F) and humidity (0 to 100%) alert on the swings you configure.
Where should Eddy H2O sensors go?
Wherever leaks start. In suites that means under sinks and dishwashers, beside washers and water heaters and at toilets and vanities. In common areas it means mechanical rooms, risers and elevator pits.
How is Eddy H2O installed?
In under a minute, with no wiring or drywall cuts. It sits on the floor, in a sensor holder or upright in a baseboard holder.
What happens when Eddy H2O detects water?
The alert and its exact location reach your team and the Eddy monitoring center at the same time. Operators follow the building's escalation protocol, and where the project's rules call for it, a shutoff valve closes automatically.
