Installing the smart water damage protection system without an Internet connection
Sedna5 is a complete and stand-alone smart water damage protection system consisting of a valve and five water leak detectors. When it’s connected to the Internet and that you have installed the Neviweb app on your smartphone or tablet, it can notify you by e-mail or push notification as soon as a water leak or a frost risk is detected and that the valve has closed. It also allows you to remotely open and close the valve using the app.
The Sedna5 water damage protection system can also work without an internet connection or smartphone. It protects your home as effectively against water damage. The valve will automatically shut off when water is detected, and the water leak detectors will alert you with an audible alarm.
