Wish I had known about these little guys years ago. My story: I was out of town for the weekend when my neighbor called me to inform me that my house was flooding, water was coming out the front door and the garage door. The bottom of the water heater had blown out and it was only 6 years old. Needless to say, it was a nightmare experience and I wish I had known about these water alarms, it would have saved me a lot of headaches and grief.
Jay Brandt and Steve Kelchlin, are co-owners of Water Response Innovations, Inc, a San Diego based company.
