Abstract

A water leak detection (35) and active surveillance system applied to a single or multiple dwellings that timely alerts (45) and contacts a decision maker of the leak so that a corrective action intervention may be implemented. The system includes multiple water detection endpoints and a base station (50) that is connected by wireless telephone (60) or other communication means. The system implements a water shutoff action to the water source of the effected dwelling.
