Product Description

Meet Flood Buzz Water Leak Alarms

Meet the lean, mean, water leak-detecting machine: Flood Buzz alarms are small but powerful devices that emit loud alarms as soon as water touches them. There are no moving parts, no extra components to break, nothing to install, and they are fully reusable with internal batteries that last up to 3 years.

Every Flood Buzz product works in the same basic way. When water from a leak touches the two metal prongs on the bottom of a Flood Buzz water leak alarm, the water closes the circuit and the Flood Buzz emits a loud piercing screech. There are no moving parts, no extra components to break, nothing unnecessary.

Title: So easy to use
Review: I bought these leak alarms after a had a little mishap with my kitchen plumbing. Not sure why some reviewers stated the leak alarms were not loud enough. The alarms I received were very audible even with the cabinet drawers closed. The alarms were so easy to use and install, just remove from packaging, place in desired location and that’s it. I tested them prior to installing and found very little water is needed to set them off, extremely sensitive. The leak alarms are worth the money and peace of mind. I placed the extra alarm in my AC closet since the drain line occasionally will clog and overflow. Great product!

Title: Excellent product. Household must have.
Review: So simple to use. Every household needs to have this excellent detector. It is small so it easily fit into tiny spaces. The alarm is loud and high pitched. You can’t miss it even when the cabinet doors are closed.

Title: Great Investment!
Review: These things definitely tell ya if you have water. They work very simply by the 2 metal prongs on the bottom of them, if there is water touching those prongs, they beep and they don't stop until you physically pick them up and remove them from the water (or I guess if the battery runs out, but we haven't had that problem yet.) On 5 occasions now, these things have told us immediately that there was water and saved us from having a massive cleanup. It doesn't take much water at all either, we put them directly on the concrete floor in the utility closet and the moment there was any water, they started sounding, so you don't need to wait until there is a catastrophe amount of water (even a quarter inch of water is a lot, so I like that these basically go off with even the smallest trickle of water.) They are not very loud though, that is my only complaint. We have these in the basement, and if we are upstairs in our bedroom (just one floor above) with our door closed, we cannot hear it going off. We can hear it slightly with the door open though, so I wish that they were just slightly louder. Also, these are very basic, you cannot sync them to an app on your phone or anything, so if there is water when you aren't home, these won't tell you that. Overall, for the cost, these were DEFINITELY worth it!

Title: Effective alert with low water
Review: Makes a noise that can be heard from another floor of the house when there's a tiny bit of water seepage in the basement during heavy rain.

Title: They work great!
Review: I had a leak and the alarm went off! It ended up being small, but the important thing is it worked perfectly and fast. I trust them completely.

Title: Easy to Use and Worth the Peace of Mind
Review: I’ve got these Flood Buzz leak detectors behind my nugget ice maker, water filtration system, and RO water system, and they’ve been great for peace of mind.Pros: • Super Simple: No setup at all—just take them out of the package and put them where you need them. • Loud Alarm: The alarm is seriously loud, just like a smoke detector. I feel confident I won’t miss it if there’s ever a leak. • Perfect Size: These are small enough to tuck behind appliances without any hassle, and you barely notice they’re there.Cons: • One-Time Use Battery: The battery can’t be replaced, which means once it’s dead, you have to buy a new one. Not a huge deal, but something to keep in mind.Overall, I’m really happy with these. They’re a simple, no-fuss solution for keeping an eye on potential leaks, and I’ll definitely be picking up a few more for other areas of the house. Totally worth it!

Title: Small, unlikely to accidently tip-over, loud enough to hear across the house
Review: We are positioning them near historical leak points around the house. We have had other, larger alarms, with the probes on the bottom that tipped over easily an then wouldn't sense a leak in the tipped over position until the water level was at least 1" deep. They will sound-off with just a small puddle. These do not send a notification that they sensed a leak to your cell phone. You need to be within earshot to know a leak was detected. They are loud enough to be heard in the house, but not when you are away from the house.

Title: Alarm sound is weak
Review: It works as it is supposed to do. But there probably be some who wish that the audible sound to be louder. The alarm is very low. But for the price and qty I received I'm not complaining. Also don't expect to get push notifications it doesn't do that. Moen does both but cost last time i checked it was between 45 to 50 bucks.

Review: When I first bought the Buzz alarms I thought maybe they wouldn't work so well. Well I sure was surprised to find out it does work and well. The alarm sound is good, it warned me of a flood (actually a puddle) in my basement from heavy rains. Will buy this alarm again.

Review: These work fine,but when I read they were reusable I thought batteries were changeable.They are not.They can be dried off and reused again if you get an alarm.So they do have a lifespan and then you throw them away.So much waste in this world.

Review: I tested the 6 units individually by standing each in a minimal layer of water on a flat bathroom sink, and all worked very well! These are very easy to use as it's a place and forget application. I did set a calendar reminder to re-check them every few months.The only negative here is that the product must have been in storage for about a year before it was shipped as the 'replace' date stamped on each unit is for just 25 months from receive date, whereas the product is rated to be good for 36 months.Nevertheless, I have peace of mind having placed these redundantly by dishwasher, fridge, and washing machine.

Review: These will save you a lot of major water problems. I’ve had the bigger ones but I couldn’t get them under my dishwasher which is a huge problem if it starts to leak.I placed them anywhere you have a chance ofa water leak and because you get so many for a good price.

Review: I know now that it works really well. I washed the floor and slopped a little water close to the pod. It makes a progressively louder noise. Very well done. It stopped squealing as soon as I removed it from the water. I have them under all sinks, toilet, close to dishwasher and washing machine.
