Looking for a smart water sensor

[TJTex331]

I am looking for smart water sensors. These are the type that will detect water leaks and alert you on your mobile. I need some that sit on the floor to detect any water leaks and one that I can put into my sump to tell me if the water level is too high indicating that the pump has failed. I live in Canada so I need some info on ones that are compatible with our 110V power

Does anyone have recommendations?

For sump level alerts, check out YoLink. For spotting floor leaks, X-Sense or SwitchBot could work. They all work in Canada, use 110V (with a hub if needed), and ping your phone with alerts

my advice is to get a dedicated smart sump pump alarm. They're specifically designed for this purpose. besides YoLink, a brand like PumpSpy makes a system with a probe that you can hang at a certain height in the pit.
It will alert you if the water level rises past that point, and some can even monitor the pump's power and performance.
As for power, most of these just plug into a standard 110V outlet in Canada, just like a regular appliance

I found the YoLink Water Leak Sensor + Level Sensor setup cool. The leak sensor lays flat to catch water on the floor, and you can pair it with a float-based level sensor in your sump. Runs on AAA batteries and connects via LoRa (so it's not killing your Wi‑Fi). Smart and expandable.

Try the Wayne WSM1000. It keeps tabs on your sump pump by using a float sensor in the pit to tell you if the water's getting too high. Just plug it into any regular outlet, and it connects to your WiFi.

you know, you can take this one step further. Instead of just getting a mobile alert for a floor leak, consider getting a whole home smart water shutoff valve.
This device installs on your main water line and, when it detects a leak from one of your floor sensors, it will automatically shut off the water to your entire house. This is the ultimate peace of mind and can prevent thousands of dollars in water damage.

The YoLink setup sounds super smart, especially with LoRa keeping Wi-Fi free. How long do the AAA batteries usually last in real use? Thinking of adding a few around the house and want to make sure it's easy to manage.
