damage prevention system

The brand most recommended by insurers

NOWA is the very first brand to have proven itself in water damage prevention. It was the first to be recognized by insurers for its great reliability. In fact, many of them find it so reliable that they have chosen it to protect their own buildings. The NOWA system is a proven technology that we’re constantly improving.

How does the NOWA 4S water leak detection and control system work?

With NOWA 4S’ sleek and effective water sensors placed in strategic spots in your home, water leak detection and control have never been more reliable. As soon as any of the sensors detects water, a secure encrypted communication is sent to the control panel, which then shuts off automatically the electric valve installed at the main water line and notifies you through the PRESENCE mobile app or control panel. The whole process is virtually instantaneous from leak detection to notification.

Since each NOWA 4S control panel can pair up to 64 wireless sensors and has a signal range of up to 5,000 square feet, NOWA water prevention systems can be installed in homes, condominiums, cottages, and commercial buildings alike.

Simpler. Safer.

Nothing complicated.
Only practicality.

The screen interface is intuitive, and the functions are limited to what is essential, in just three simple taps. With automatic updates, your system always has the latest and greatest innovations from NOWA, with no action required on your part.

Hybrid technology for unbeatable security.

Unlike other systems that only communicate via Wi-Fi, NOWA 4S uses both Wi-Fi and the LTE cellular network to sync up with the online portal in real time. No more worries about outages.

Stopped instantly.
Notified instantly.

Our system is designed to be the most non-intrusive possible. Our detectors will not start beeping loudly when a leak is detected. Meaning they will not wake you up in the middle of the night, or beep endlessly when no one is even home.

By the time the NOWA 4S control panel or PRESENCE mobile app notify you of an incident, the worst has already been prevented. You can rest easy or leave with your peace of mind intact.

Putting off prevention:
the numbers speak for themselves.

Repeated water damage claims can cause premiums to skyrocket and drain the self-insurance fund. As premiums and deductibles increase, a condominium’s financial situation can become unsustainable and the building uninsurable. In other words, protecting yourself against water damage with NOWA is also a preventive measure that’s good for your finances. You’ll benefit from immediate discounts*, in addition to stabilizing your expenses over the medium and long term.
