Detection has gotten faster.
Chapter 01 · The detection problem is solved
Smart sensors can isolate a leak in seconds.
Ultrasonic flow meters, automatic shutoff valves and connected monitoring have made detection a solved problem. Catching the leak is not what trips most buildings up anymore.
Riser 04, Floor 22, flow anomaly detected. Isolating now.
Eddy detects fast.
But fast detection isn’t the bottleneck.
Confirmed alert to shutoff on the monitoring program runs in minutes, not hours. Without that program, an overnight pipe leak goes 6 to 8 hours undetected. A weekend HVAC failure runs 36 to 60. The bottleneck is the gap between alert and action.
What an undetected event runs to without a 24/7 monitoring program.
Hours an event runs undetected without a 24/7 monitoring program, by scenario. With Eddy, detection is seconds to alert and isolation within minutes.
