About Your Dual Leak Sensor

Installing Batteries

Your sensor comes with 2 AA alkaline batteries which must be installed before use. We recommend alkaline batteries only in this sensor.

Gently pull the front of the sensor forward using the battery access tab on top of the sensor to release the front of the main unit.
Place the batteries in the battery compartment as shown. Make sure polarity (+/–) matches the markings in the product.
Press the front and back cabinet together.

Wi-Fi Setup

NOTE: We recommend performing setup in the same location you intend to place your sensor.

Download and open the iHome Control app from the App Store or Google Play. Login to or create an iHome account
Press sensors icon and then the Add Device Button.
Select your sensor, then tap “Next”.
Press and hold the Action Button on your sensor for 5 seconds until green LED is ﬂashing, then release.
Enter the following setup code when prompted in the app.

NOTE: If you see a solid or ﬂashing RED LED, press and hold the Action Button for 5 seconds and then repeat steps 2 and 3

Sensor Placement and Operation

When placing your leak sensors:

Ensure the leak detection probes are placed face down in a location that may experience water ﬂow early. This may be a low point in a basement, in or near a sump pump, behind a washing machine, near sinks, toilets, hot water heaters, etc.
The goal is to notify you of unexpected water as soon as possible.
The secondary detection probe provides an extra point for leak monitoring and is placed in an area near the main probe (for example, main probe under sink, extension probe under toilet). Please use the included cable clasp to ensure that the detection probe remains face down. Remove the backing from the double-stick tape and press down on a clean, smooth surface.
Your sensor is equipped with a loud buzzer that will sound any time liquid is detected. You may press the action button on your sensor to silence the buzzer and acknowledge the warning.

Note: The product is intended for early leak detection and is not intended to be submerged in water at any time.
