Owners and managers of commercial and multi-family properties will want to take note of a new Toilet Leak Sensor Pilot Program. The program offers a 50% rebate on the installation of a toilet leak-detection monitoring system including the first year of monitoring – up to $15,000 per property!

The goal of the Pilot Program is to gather more data to develop a firm water savings estimate resulting from the installation of toilet leak sensors for multi-family and other multi-unit properties (hotels, dorms, etc.). This program will support water use efficiency in multi-unit buildings by minimizing the amount of water lost to toilet leaks, which can be substantial.

The hardware consists of a sensor attached to the water supply of each toilet, network repeaters, and a gateway that sends data to cloud storage. A computer application shows water use in real time and alerts to any leaks as they occur. The system detects different types of leaks, so maintenance staff can quickly address them.
