Major water leaks can be very damaging to MultiFamily and Student Housing. Whether the leak is small (like a faucet that keeps running) or large (like a pipe break that floods the property), the damage and waste add up. Here are some numbers from Water Damage Defense about leaks:

• 14,000 people in the U.S. experience a water damage emergency at home or work every day
• The annual cost in the U.S. to insurance companies from water damage and mold is $2.5 billon
• 75% of water heaters or boilers fail before they are 12 years old
• Water leaks from U.S. homes can exceed 1 trillion dollars per year, which is equal to the annual water use of Los Angeles, Chicago, and Miami combined

Below is a video that shows how devastating an apartment leak can be. Fortunately, smart technology can sense leaks early on, and notify Property Managers. The sooner a leak is detected, the less damage there will be.
