1. What is a water alarm and how does it work?

A water alarm is a device that detects the presence of water in areas prone to leaks or flooding. Once water is detected, the alarm sounds a loud 90 dB siren to alert you
immediately, helping you take action before major damage occurs.

2. Where should I install a water alarm?

Install the alarm in areas most at risk for water leaks or flooding, including:

Under kitchen or bathroom sinks
Next to washing machines and dishwashers
Near water heaters or boilers
In basements or laundry rooms

Yes. The FA-WA001 is certified to European safety standards (EN 61010), ensuring that it meets strict quality and performance guidelines for water detection and home protection.

needing a power outlet. It’s perfect for any room in your home, especially in hard-to-reach or electricity-free zones.

The included battery offers up to 1 year of continuous protection. A low battery warning sound will alert you when it's time for a replacement.

7. How loud is the alarm?

The alarm emits a 90 dB siren, which is loud enough to be heard throughout your home, even in noisy environments like laundry areas or basements.

8. Can the alarm detect small leaks?

Yes. The sensor is highly sensitive and capable of detecting even small amounts of
water—helping you catch leaks early before they become costly problems.

Yes. Simply dry the sensor and replace the battery if needed. The alarm is designed for repeated use, making it a long-term solution for leak detection.

10. Is this water alarm suitable for homes in South Africa?

Absolutely. In South Africa, where plumbing infrastructure and weather conditions can
increase leak risk, this alarm offers reliable protection in areas with geysers, washing
machines, or aging pipes. It’s a smart investment for any home.

11. Will the alarm work during a power outage?

Yes. Since it’s battery-powered, it remains fully functional even during a power
cut—providing uninterrupted leak detection at all times.

12. How often should I test or check the alarm?

Test the alarm monthly using the built-in test function (if available).
Replace batteries when alerted by the alarm’s low battery sound.
Inspect for signs of corrosion or buildup around the sensor area.

13. Can this alarm be used in commercial settings?

Yes. While ideal for homes, the FA-WA001 is also suitable for offices, server rooms,
storage areas, and commercial kitchens—anywhere water damage could be a risk.
