FAQ
How does Water Grip water monitor and leak detector work?
If a leak is detected by Quandify's clamp-on water monitor, the smart product will automatically alert you through the app. It will display a notification and alarm so that you can quickly address the leak.
Quandify's Water Grip is an ultrasonic smart product that measures water flow, temperature and leaks. It monitors the water pipe that it is set on, to detect any early signs of leaks. Compared to a simple water sensor that can be placed on the floor,
Quandify's smart water monitor can find and alert when leaks are discovered in the pipe, before it turns into a leakage. This contributes to reduced water damage claims and water damages in general.
Quandify’s Water Grip uses ultrasonic technology to detect leaks instead of relying on water temperature. This enables precise measurements and superior security against leaks that can turn into water damage.
Because it also measures temperature, it can alert to corrosion and freezing, two of the main causes of pipe bursts.
Do I need a plumber to install it?
No, traditional water safety devices, like water shut off valves, require plumbers to install. Water Grip on the other hand requires no plumber and can be installed by anyone within a few minutes.
Where in the home should I place Water Grip?
Quandify's Water Grip can be used locally in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry room or any other space. It can also be placed on the water inlet pipe in the home, where it can alert to all leaks.
The local placement will alert to leaks in that particular space, e.g. leak in the kitchen. Placing it on the water inlet pipe will alert to any and all leaks.
Does Water Grip fit all pipe sizes and dimensions?

Where can I find the water pipe to place Water Grip on?
Homes typically have different water mains and pipes. Here is a quick guide to locating your ideal pipe:
House, villa, summer house or similar
Locate the main water pipe, the inlet pipe, in your home. It can typically be found in the basement, cellar or utility room.
Apartment, newly built
Locate the main water pipe, the inlet pipe, in your home. It can typically be found in a closet, bathroom or utility room behind an access panel.
You can also locate a local pipe, for example under the kitchen sink.
Apartment, older
In older buildings, there are typically several plumbing stacks. To find the most suitable pipe, look for the inlet pipe in your home. If this can not be accessed, choose a local pipe, for example a pipe that is routed from the floor.

- Locate the water inlet pipe or the local pipe that you will install Water Grip on.
- Clean the pipe. Make sure there is no paint, insolation or other materials covering the pipe.
