How PCL prevents water damage during construction.
One of North America's top builders uses Eddy's connected leak protection to keep projects on schedule, reduce on-site water-event risk and support stronger insurance terms across active job sites.
- Reduce water claim frequency
- Document alert response performance
- Standardize 24/7 monitoring response
The challenge
Construction sites across North America generate billions in water-damage claims a year, leading to delays, rework and rising premiums. PCL needed a way to take on-site water risk to near-zero without slowing trades or rebuilding the program from scratch on every job.
The solution
Eddy installs wireless sensors at high-risk fixtures and risers, automatic shutoff on the main feed and the 24/7 monitoring center on the alert chain from temporary risers through commissioning. Real-time monitoring and automatic shutoff prevent major water events on active sites, and the program scales to multiple projects without bespoke setup each time.
The same hardware that protects the site during construction stays live through occupancy, so the operating-building program does not start from scratch.
Coverage
Monitored high-risk areas
- Temporary construction risers
- Domestic and HVAC mains
- High-risk fixtures during fit-out
- Mechanical rooms
Functionality
- Real-time wireless leak detection
- Automatic and remote water shutoff
- 24/7 monitoring center support
- Construction-to-operations continuity
Outcome
A scalable construction-protection program that reduces risk during the build, supports stronger insurance conversations and continues to deliver value once the building is operating.
