Prevents a leak from causing major damage
Water damage accounts for the largest share of insurance claim costs, with more than 40,000 cases reported each year. A large proportion occurs in kitchens, often involving relatively new appliances. The damage is costly and can take up to three months to repair, while personal belongings may also be lost. Prevent costly water damage with type-approved products. The LK CubicDetector leak detector provides an immediate alert upon contact with water. The LK CubicSecure water safety unit monitors the entire tapwater system and can automatically shut off the water supply when an abnormality is detected. As the products are type-approved by RISE, this can often also provide benefits such as discounts on insurance premiums, a lower excess and, in some cases, financial support towards installation.
The LK CubicDetector water alarm is installed in areas at risk of water leakage and provides an immediate alert upon contact with water, both audibly and via your mobile phone. For confined spaces, it can be supplemented with a sensor cable. The LK CubicSecure water safety unit monitors the entire tapwater system, detects abnormalities and automatically shuts off the water supply in the event of a leak. The system can also be controlled via the MyLK app, providing quick control before any damage occurs.
CubicSecure detects possible micro-leakage through pressure tests every night at 4:00 AM. The customer receives a notice after the second leak and the valve is closed after the third notice.
The product shuts off the water if the continuous flow during 45 minutes is more than 6-1499 liters/hour. Option to deactivate and start the water yourself is available in the app.
In case of pipe rupture leakage, where the flow corresponds to 1500 liters per hour or more, the valve closes immediately after 90-120 seconds.
It is exciting with this type of new technology. With this system, our tenants and we as property owners will gain a better understanding of our consumption and perhaps in this way help our tenants to live more sustainably.

One less thing I have to worry about. Also good to gain visibility into our water use.
Gustaf, Villa owner
CubicSecure installed through the insurance company detected a leaking toilet and flush button that was wasting water, making the user happy and saving unnecessary water consumption. It also helped save water when the user was away for the weekend with a loose pressurized garden hose last summer.
