nstall the probe unit so that the metal probes are horizontal. A water leak can
only be detected if water touches both of the metal probes; if water touches only
one of the probes, a water leak will not be detected.

Installation location
I
nstall the water leak sensor in a basement, kitchen, utility room, or anywhere you
want to detect a water leak. Common installation examples include near a washing
machine, hot water heater, or a location where a water leak has occurred in the
past.
Note:
R Install the probe unit so that its metal probes are about 1 mm (1/32 inches)
above the floor. If the probes touch the floor, the sensor may make false
detections. If the probes are too far from the floor, water leaks can only be
detected after the leaked water has become deep enough to touch the probes.
R Install the main unit 1 m (3 feet 3 inches) or higher above the floor. The main
unit is not waterproof; if it becomes wet, the sensor may become damaged and
water leaks will not be detected properly.
