Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What type of battery does the Leak Alert WiFi use?
Answer: The tool requires one (non-rechargeable) 3V (CR123A) lithium battery, included.
Q: Will the detector still work if there is a power outage to my Wi-Fi router?
A: The detector will be unable to send email alerts during this time. However, the visual and audio (105 dB alarm) alerts will still function.
Q: Why is my Leak Alert WiFi still emitting an alarm when the sensing contacts are dry?
A1: Moisture from your fingers can trigger the alarm if they come in contact with the external Sensing Contacts that wrap around the bottom of the detector.
A2: Alarm may actually be the chirp of the low battery indication. Replace with a new 3V (CR123A) lithium battery immediately.
Q: Will I ever need to reconnect the detector to the Wi-Fi network after the first configuration?
A: If the wireless password is updated, a new configuration is entered, or the router is factory reset, the Leak Alert WiFi must be reconfigured to the router.
