The Ultimate Buyer's Guide for Purchasing Gas Meter Water Leakage Test Bench
Best Water Leak Detector Systems
In our tests, we focus on two key areas: leak detection and convenience.

We test both the professionally installed systems that detect leaks by monitoring water flow and pressure through the pipe and DIY systems that use wireless leak detectorspuck-sized, battery-powered devices with metal probes that detect the presence of water at the source of the leak. Put one in a cabinet under a sink, beneath the supply line to a toilet, or at the base of your water heater, and the smallest drop of water will activate the sensor. I personally now have six of these sensors scattered around my houseno more waterfalls for us, thanks. Some professional systems also make use of remote wireless sensors, as an added layer of protection.
For the professionally installed systems, our test engineers connect them to a water line and allow water to flow through them freely to test for large leaks. They also test for drip leaks by capping the end of the line and loosening it slightly to allow water to drip out. For the DIY systems, our engineers mount the shutoff unit onto a pipe with a quarter-turn valve and wet the probes on the leak sensors to simulate a leak, causing the sensors to send a wireless signal to the shutoff unit so that it turns off the water.
Our convenience test evaluates ease of installation and the features offered by the systems, such as whether they allow you to manually turn off the water, are weatherproof for water lines that are located outdoors, or offer battery backup (to keep the system up during a power outage).

All of the detectors were able to detect simulated leaks, so we differentiated them based on the variety of ways they can detect leaks, says Richard Handel, CRs test engineer for water leak detector systems. The best systems use both flow sensors, to detect large and small leaks in water supply pipes, and remote wireless leak detectors.
