BEST LEAK DETECTION EVER

In this video, Chris shows how he installed several YoLink leak sensors with a speaker hub plus a bulldog motorized valve control in his house. This system detects leaks and automatically shuts off the water supply to prevent damage.

Awesome video! Very well explained, buying my first house so these will be an immediate buy!

[danielmunoz]

This is a excellent demonstration of the product. Thank you so much.

[Oneofmanys]

Great video!! Thank you
What is the range for direct access without the internet hub?

[DavidStein-cz]

Very cool. Every home should have this!

Any thought on how to pair to Home Assistant or HomeSeer?

I discovered YoLink almost two years ago and now have 20 sensors and valves. I have temperature sensors that automate the AC for the Rabbits, I have valve controls so I can turn off the main house or the garden on/off, etc. I have a driveway sensor, etc. and I use door contacts for my guest house. I also use Motion and leak sensors.

I have this system as well. Got it about a year ago. I got the kit on Amazon with 4 leak sensors and the original hub, no valve actuator. I have been pretty impressed with the reliability and battery life so far. I would like to extend the electrodes with a length of wire and a little sponge on the ends to reach into tight spaces, just haven’t done that yet.

An added benefit that I didn’t foresee, it lets me know when I have a power failure at home as the hub sends a notification when it goes offline.

Excelente video, muy bien explicado. Muchas gracias!

Question : So if paired directly with the “black box” is it also still paired to the hub? Or is it an either or situation?

I recently had water damage from a backed up condensate drip line for my air handler in the attic. Not only was the drip line blocked, but the float shutoff switch in the drain pan was inoperative. Water had been building up in the pan for days until it overflowed and came through the garage ceiling. This would've been a LOT worse if we were out of town. Subsequently, I found this product and immediately purchased it. This is a small price to pay for peace of mind, and it's only a fraction of the cost of my insurance deductible.

Can you set up multiple senors to direct connect with the bull dog valve

[bulletdancestorm]

I have the little manual ones that just emit 200db and just use batteries. I have one under the water heater and the slop sink next to the washer. This is some high tech stuff

[the-real-angus-young]

Wow, i have never heard of this type of product before.
I bet its worth letting your insurance company you have this installed too.

Cheers 🤝

Great video. Question, do you happen to know what torque is delivered to shut off the main valve? Will it work on valves which get tough to operate over time? Any experience with this by you or viewers?

[dancruze]

Excellent review. Told me what i needed to know. 👏

[gracetuallasanluis]

Great and informative video! Where do you specifically place the sensor for your refrigerator?

[mr.thinkpositive]

Thanks for a great video!
I installed the hub, water sensors & Bulldog just like you did for the house water. What would you suggest to protect my hydro air heating system from a burst pipe? Should I put another Bulldog on the main water feed to my boiler and sensors in a pan under the air handler which is the most likely problem area? Thank you

[wpny]

Thank you, that's a great video that focuses on the point.

I'm very interested in this brand but I'm seeing many mixed reviews of signals not being received on the app.

Have you experienced any failed signals or any other bugs? Thanks!

[damonras]

The bulldog valve in your video looks a bit different than the one you linked to on Amazon. If I don’t have a power outlet near my valve can I still use the bulldog?

[CrazyGadgetGuy]

I have this in my home and it works great.

[walshep]

Is it worth having an extra for the hot water valve or not, most leaks are from the main water .
