Residential Water Supply & Pump AutomationEquipment Management3MediumHomeowner$ implied

A homeowner or well system operator needs a device that automatically cuts electrical power to a well pump in the event of a water leak from the pressure tank or supply line.

Existing solutions only shut off the water valve, not the pump power, which means the pump can continue running and potentially burn out or cause further damage.

App Concept

LeakSense Pump Kill

LeakSense Pump Kill is a smart relay that monitors for water leaks near the pressure tank and supply line using a wired or wireless moisture sensor. When a leak is detected, it immediately cuts power to the well pump, preventing pump burnout and water damage. It integrates with existing smart home systems for alerts.

Key Features

Wireless or wired moisture sensor paired with a relay to disconnect pump power
Automatic shutoff when leak detected; manual reset required
Works with 120V/240V well pumps
Smartphone alert via Wi-Fi or optional cellular module
NEMA-rated enclosure for basement or well house installation

Target Users: Homeowners and property managers with private well systems who want to prevent pump damage and water damage from leaks.

Revenue Model: Single unit sale at $129-$179 with optional subscription for cellular alerts ($5/mo); volume discounts for installers.
