I want to thank you for your great product! Your water leak detector in my basement sent me an alarm for high humidity. There was just a slight trickle of water coming through the basement wall, but the line outside the foundation was leaking at a rate of about 900 gallons per day! Way to… Read More

Just a testimonial, because I’m a fan. I installed two ROOST “Water Leak & Freeze Detectors” recently, one under my dishwasher and another under my refrigerator (with ice maker). Both were nicely packaged, well-designed and well-made, easily linked to my wifi, and simply placed under the appliances, out of sight behind the front panels. The… Read More

I installed three Roost water leak detection devices in my home to provide some peace of mind in loss prevention for a busy family always on the go. I didn’t expect that one of the devices would come to the rescue so soon, but not more than two months after installation, I received a notification… Read More

I’ve had the Roost leak detector for about a year now. The other night around 2:00 am, my phone started going off. I looked at my phone saw a notification that Roost had detected a leak. We have been having a lot of rain lately, so I went downstairs and saw that my sump pump… Read More
