TECHNOLOGY
Safe
NOWA’s PRESENCE service ensures risk-free continuity by leveraging the full potential of the new generation of NOWA 4S water leak detection and control systems. Unlike older generation systems using Wi-Fi, this new NOWA system communicates via an LTE cellular network. The advantages of this approach are undeniable:
Reliable
No Wi-Fi network, whether personal or mesh, provides you with as reliable service
continuity as an LTE network. With PRESENCE, you are safe from momentary Wi-Fi
outages
due to maintenance or human error that may go unnoticed, such as changing a password
or
unplugging a router.
Autonomous
Each control panel has its own SIM card and direct link to the LTE cellular network.
This way, each condominium in a building communicates independently with the cloud
portal without the need for a potentially risky and costly Wi-Fi infrastructure.
In real time
Data is synced to the cloud in real time. Any change in the status of one of the
control
panels or a sensor in any of the condominiums in your building is detected and
automatically updated on both the cloud portal and the manager's devices. You and
the
NOWA PRESENCE team are immediately notified of any incident.
INSTALLATION
Ultrasimple
The PRESENCE service is designed to make installation easier and faster than ever before. By choosing PRESENCE, you eliminate the tasks that can make work on site more complex. Plus, you'll reduce the time and cost of installation.
Installation in three simple steps.
Step 1 : Installation of the automated valve and control panel by a certified plumber.
Step 2 : Positioning of sensors according to the protection plan and pairing with the control panel.
Step 3 : Activate and sync the control panel with the PRESENCE cloud portal via an LTE network.
Everything that is removed from the equation is a gain for you.
No technological infrastructure is required. No cabling work. No router or Wi-Fi access point. No connection to the condominiums' Wi-Fi network. No need to drill into walls or concrete slabs to run wires. We install a ready-to-use system. As soon as it is plugged in, it is ready to sync with the cloud portal.
SAVINGS
Profitability
The correlation between the installation of a NOWA system and the reduction of water damage claims is direct—and the financial impact can be significant. Deductibles for claims are drastically reduced, if not completely eliminated. You may not experience any increase in your annual insurance premiums; oftentimes, they are immediately reduced*. In other words, instead of dipping into your funds, you generate wealth that can be reinvested into your building or services.
*For the vast majority of insurers.
Ask for your personalized assessment.
What do insurers think?
Water-related claims have become the leading cause of uninsured condominiums. Today, it is common to see a condominium become uninsured. Insurers meticulously calculate the risk that you represent and the cost of this risk. Therefore, they have moved to another level; they focus on detecting water leaks and maintaining the connectivity of the system you choose. The PRESENCE service fully meets their demands.
PROTECT YOUR INSURABILITY.
Implementing a NOWA system in all your condominium units immediately stabilizes your insurable risk with most insurers.
PREVENTION FOR THE LONG RUN.
Buying a condominium is a significant investment you will finance over several years. We believe that your protection against water damage must be able to cover you. NOWA’s PRESENCE service is designed with prevention and protection in mind—all the time and for the long haul.
