A smart water monitor watches your water use in real time and can spot leaks you would never notice. Here is the Salem guide.
How it works

What it catches
A slow-running toilet, a leaking pipe, or a hose left on — the monitor sees the continuous flow and alerts you, often before damage happens.
The auto-shutoff option
Some monitors pair with an automatic shutoff valve that closes the main when a major leak is detected, even if you are away.
