“I will sing the praise of these nifty little devices to the world because had I not been alerted, we would have been walking into a flooded school 48 hours later.” – Christina Nolte, the school's on-site owner.
Imagine ringing in the new year only to discover the next day that the school where you work or your child attends had flooded due to a pipe bursting while everyone was away for the holiday.
Thankfully, this was not the case for a school in Virginia. The school had PHLYSENSE installed, a 24/7 property monitoring and water-sensor device. When a pipe broke in the early hours of January 1, 2025, the little device detected the water leak. It sent a phone alert to the manager of the school about a leak coming from the janitor’s closet. The alert enabled her to quickly take action to stop the leak and clean up the water in the school.
“Had I not been alerted, we would have been walking into a flooded school 48 hours later,” said Nolte. The school avoided over $100,000 in losses and opened on time the next day, all thanks to PHLYSENSE.
