Have you ever dealt with flooding in your home? I’m not talking about natural disaster type flooding, but the failure of a sump pump, dishwasher, or even a toilet. I have seen a sump pump go twice in my life – once in my stepfather’s home, and at a friend’s home. By the time anyone found out, there was thousands of dollars in damage. While our basement thankfully doesn’t need a sump pump, there are still plenty of things that can flood – the washing machine, dishwasher, toilet, or even the refrigerator! Thankfully, D-Link now has a way to alert you when links happen – allowing you to handle water problems before they get worse with the D-Link Wi-Fi Water Sensor.
D-Link Wi-Fi Water Sensor: What is It?
Looking for a way to protect your home from water damage? If so, we think you will love the D-Link Wi-Fi Water Sensor. This innovative mobile device plugs into a water close by a water unit and sets off an alarm when water is detected, and will send an alert to your phone, letting you know that you need to deal with water before it causes serious damage to your home. All you need is a smartphone, wi-fi capable router, and at least one available power outlet. Best of all, it works with other my D-Link devices, allowing you to pair it with a smart plug, wi-fi camera, or even a wi-fi siren that you can set off from your phone. Who knew protecting your home from water could be so easy? To learn more, make sure to watch the short video below!
D-Link Wi-Fi Water Sensor: Our Thoughts
Personally, I think this is one of the coolest ideas ever. While we thankfully weren’t able to test out having a water leak (thank goodness), I am happy we have a bit of insurance in place to make sure things don’t get out of hand. Best of all, the system is very easy to set up, and really is one of those things that you just leave and forget about unless there is an emergency. If there is, your phone will get a notification, telling you there is an issue and you need to check it out immediately. Honestly, I think every home needs one of these devices, since no one wants to have who knows hundreds or thousands in damage caused by just water! Based on our own experience, I am delighted to give the D-Link Wi-Fi Water Sensor an A rating!

This is awesome, I need to check this out for our home!
This is awesome and so important!! We had water leaking from our centrak air and didn’t know about it for weeks!! Such a pain in the butt!! This could’ve really saved our carpet!! Thanks for sharing!
This sounds like a wonderful product!
As someone who experienced water damage in the home from a leak, this is such a great product and necessary in every home.
The first house I lived in had a basement that flooded. It cost a lot of money to waterproof. After that, there was mold to remove, This sounds like something I wish we had at the time.
Wow, they have something blue tooth these days for everything. I guess I better catch up with the times.
wow i di not think the washeing mmachine to flood but it can happen and probly does alot if you like freexe up
This is very good idea. Last thing you want is a flooded house.
My mom needs this as her basement floods sometimes due to the AC unit. I’ll tell her about this…or maybe this would be a good holiday gift!
This is a really good idea. I’ve had 2 incidents that this would have really come in hand for.
This would make a great Christmas gift for my dad. His basement just flooded. Thanks for sharing!
i have lived in several homes severely water damaged and this is brilliant. getting one soon!
This would definitely be something I would want, as I know people who’ve had flooding in their homes that caused quite a bit of damage. Thanks for posting!
Oh yes, right by the washing machine is the place for that puppy. I once entered my garage (innocently) to find two inches of water covering the entire floor! It was a disaster.
What an innovative product! I love this idea. Nobody wants to have to deal with unexpected flooding issues!
Having had water damage in my home due to a broken hose under the sink while we were at work, I think this is just a great product to have.
I like the design of this sensor. It is something that I will think about for buying for my residence.
Wow, what will they think of next. What an interesting product to try.
this is so techy!
sounds great. I’ve had this problem once with a water heater.
this is such a great and creative idea….i can never imagine getting my home flooded
WOW!! this is really nice, I didn’t even know they had something like this, I am sure I can find a few people who really could use something like this, for there home and family,,,,

This is so awesome! The products they make now days are amazing.
Yeah, this is one of those products you don’t want to ever need, but good to have. My dishwasher malfunctioned once and poured soapy water all over the kitchen floor. Luckily we were in the living room talking, when my husband saw the suds. I often go to bed to read while the dishes are washing, so it could have been a bad bad deal.
I’ve never had to deal with a sump pump. But I’m a home & appliance repairman. I’ll tell you what, this is a superb idea. It takes some money out of my pockets as I do cleanup & repair from such incidents, but still a great idea.
It just amazes me all the little gadgets they have come out with. This would be nice to have. Thank you so much for sharing
That’s a clever invention. I don’t have a smartphone.
What will they think of next?! We’ve had huge issues with slab leaks. This would be a great product for us…and anyone that wants to protect their home from water damage.
I need this. my hot water heater leaked and damaged m y floor
