MOCREO LW1 Remote Water Leak Detector: Protect Your Home with Peace of Mind

Why Choose the LW1? Safety Made Simple.

We are dedicated to providing you with reliable, easy-to-use water protection. Our goal is to reduce your worry by delivering the clearest, smartest alerts possible.

Top Features for Your Safety

  • 5-in-1 Instant Safety Alerts: Protect your home with five layers of security. When a leak is detected, you will receive immediate SMS, App, and Email notifications, while the Sensor/Hub alerts you at home with a Loud Siren and Flashing Red Light. For iPhone users, the iOS Critical Alerts will sound even if your phone is on “Silent” or “Do Not Disturb,” ensuring you never miss an emergency, allowing you to take action before damage spreads.
  • Unique Side-Water Monitoring: Most sensors only check the top and bottom. The LW1 features a special side-sensor that tracks the severity of a leak, detecting water as shallow as 2mm (1/8 inch) before it becomes a flood.
  • Freeze Prevention Alert: If the temperature drops to 32°F (0°C) or below, the system sends a “Freeze Alert.” This helps prevent burst pipes in the winter and monitors AC condensation issues in the summer.

1. Where to Place Your LW1 Detector

The LW1 is designed to fit into every “problem corner” of your home to detect drips, seepage, and leaks:

  • Basement & Utility Room: Place near water heaters, sump pumps, or sewer pipes. It monitors dark, hidden corners where water often gathers unnoticed.
  • Laundry Room: Position it behind your washing machine. It provides instant alerts for sudden flooding caused by burst hoses or overflows.
  • Kitchen: Tuck it under the kitchen sink to catch slow pipe drips, or slide it into the narrow gap beneath your dishwasher kickplate.
  • Bathroom: Place it at the base of your toilet to detect hidden leaks from aging wax rings before they damage your flooring.
  • HVAC & Appliances: Ideal for monitoring AC condensation lines, refrigerators (ice maker lines), or fish tanks to prevent seepage.

2. Two Ways to Stay Informed

This system protects your home in two flexible ways:

  • Simple Local Alarm: Works immediately with no setup! If water touches the sensor, it emits a loud 105dB alarm and flashes a bright red light.
  • Smart Remote Monitoring: Connect to a MOCREO H6Pro or H5Pro Hub for extended protection.
    • Ultra-Long Range: The signal covers up to 2,000 feet (600 meters), perfect for large homes, basements, or detached garages.
    • Alerts Anywhere: Receive real-time alerts via App, Email, or SMS
      • Note: SMS is currently for U.S. numbers only
    • Note: The LW1 requires a MOCREO H6Pro or H5Pro Hub for remote features.

  • Severity Tracking: The system intelligently informs you of the risk level (Low, Medium, or High).
  • Know the Exact Location: Name each sensor in the App (e.g., “Basement Pipe” or “Kitchen Sink”) so you can find the leak source instantly without searching.

5. Convenient Controls
