Smart Property Management: Protect, Prevent, and Respond in Real-Time

Unoccupied properties are especially vulnerable to damage from undetected leaks, humidity build-up, gas leaks, and unauthorized access. Without daily oversight, even minor issues can quickly escalate, leading to costly repairs and diminished property value. Smart property management solutions leverage advanced IoT sensors and real-time alert systems to give property managers the tools they need to monitor and protect unoccupied properties remotely.

Water Leak Detection

Water leaks are among the most common causes of property damage, potentially leading to costly repairs, structural damage, and tenant disruption. Detecting leaks early helps prevent damage and reduces repair costs.

Install water leak sensors in areas prone to leaks, such as bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and near HVAC units or water heaters.

Water sensors detect moisture or pooling water and immediately send alerts when a leak is detected. These can be installed in any location with potential for leaks, sending alerts to the property manager’s mobile device or email, ensuring swift action.

Humidity Sensors for Mould Prevention

High humidity levels create a breeding ground for mould and mildew, which can damage property, reduce air quality, and lead to health issues for occupants.

Humidity sensors monitor moisture levels in areas like basements, bathrooms, and kitchens, where high humidity is common.

Place humidity sensors in moisture-prone areas. If the humidity exceeds a set threshold, the system sends alerts, and, if integrated with HVAC, can adjust ventilation to bring levels down. Consistent monitoring helps ensure that conditions remain safe and comfortable, lowering the likelihood of mould growth.

Gas Leak Detection

Gas leaks are serious safety hazards, potentially causing fires, explosions, and health risks from toxic gas exposure.

Gas leak sensors detect harmful gases like natural gas, propane, or carbon monoxide. These sensors help prevent dangerous incidents and keep occupants safe.

Place gas sensors near gas lines, furnaces, stoves, and water heaters. The system continuously monitors for hazardous gas levels and sends immediate alerts through email or SMS when levels rise above safe thresholds. Our application can also trigger the IoT Controller to automatically shut-off the valves for added safety.

Door Contact Sensors for Security

Door contact sensors offer added security by monitoring access points, helping property managers know when doors or windows are opened or closed. This is useful for tracking both regular usage and potential unauthorized access.

Magnetic door and window contact sensors notify property managers of activity, improving security and allowing managers to respond to unexpected access.

Install contact sensors on all doors, windows, and any potential access points in the unoccupied property. When a door or window is opened unexpectedly, the system immediately sends a real-time alert via SMS or email, notifying the property manager to take swift action.
