The average repair cost when water damage is discovered late. Most start as a leak no one saw: under dishwashers, washing machines, or fridges with ice makers.
No one saw it. Until it was too late.

Three threats, one sensor
One sensor. Three threats that wreck your home.
Most leak detectors only see water. CubicDetector also reads temperature and humidity, so you hear about a problem while it’s still just an inconvenience.
01 · Water
0 ml
Detection threshold
Water at the source
Dual-mode sensing: contact pads on the device plus a 1.2 m extension probe for behind drawers and under appliances. The 85 dB alarm fires the second water touches metal.
02 · Freeze
< 2 °C
Default alert
Pipes before they freeze
Reads temperature from −25 °C to 60 °C with ±1.5 °C accuracy. You're notified before a pipe ever reaches the burst point, not after.
03 · Mold
0–100% RH
Humidity range
Mold before it spreads
Mold needs around 60% relative humidity to take hold. CubicDetector samples the air every 30 minutes and flags conditions that trend the wrong way.

The full system
A sensor calls for help. A valve answers it.
CubicSecure closes the main valve on its own. Pair it with CubicDetector and any room-level alert closes it too. One protects the rooms. The other protects the house.
02 · Acts
CubicSecure acts
Smart shut-off valve on your main supply. Closes automatically when it detects a leak, on its own or via a paired CubicDetector. Endorsed by Länsförsäkringar and Folksam, with 10% off your home insurance.

FAQ
Questions before you buy
How many CubicDetectors do I need?
Place one anywhere a leak could go unnoticed for hours: under the kitchen sink, behind the dishwasher, near the washing machine, by the boiler, in the basement. A small apartment is usually fine with 1–2. Family homes land around 3–5. Houses with a basement typically need 5+. The coverage planner above maps it out for you.
Do I need Wi-Fi?
For push notifications, yes, CubicDetector connects to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n). The on-device 85 dB alarm and red LED still work without it, so you'll hear a leak even if your network drops.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 3 years on a single CR123A lithium cell. The detector goes into low-power mode between checks and only stays awake when there's something to report. Battery life depends on how often the device is in active Wi-Fi or alarm mode.
Will it false-alarm in a humid bathroom?
No. The water alarm only fires when liquid water bridges the metal contact pads, not when the air is humid. Humidity is reported separately as a slow trend, not as an alarm.
What's the extension cable for?
It's a 1.2 m extension cable (1219 × 27 × 8 mm) that you can route behind a drawer, under a fridge, or along a baseboard. The probe of the cable senses water, for extra tight spaces.
Can it close my main water valve?
Only if you also have CubicSecure. Pair them in the Quandify app and a leak alert from any CubicDetector will trigger CubicSecure to shut the main supply automatically.
How do I install it?
Twist off the top, pull the battery insulator tab, twist the top back on. Place it where you want, or use the included wall mount and adhesive. Pair with Wi-Fi from the Quandify app. About two minutes.
What's the warranty?
Two years from purchase. CubicDetector is CE, RoHS, and Wi-Fi certified.

Ultrasonic technology that prevents leaks.
The new product also does not only rely on batteries but can be powered via USB-C cable. Water Grip is also available in variants for several different types of pipes.
They started with a smart water meter for property owners. Now, Quandify is growing at a record pace and launching a new meter that alerts for water leaks.
