Livly Partnership Aimed at Monitoring Costly Leaks in Apartments
Chicago-based Livly, a property management technology firm, has partnered with Sensor Industries, a leading Internet of Things environmental monitoring company. Sensor’s flagship products monitor residences for toilet leaks and floods from leaking plumbing or appliances.
Through the partnership, owners, operators, and maintenance staff of multifamily buildings will get real-time notifications of possible in-unit leaks and will be made aware of leaks within the entire building. It’s estimated that in a multifamily property with 100 toilets, 3,400 gallons of water is lost daily, costing $31,000 annually.
“Sensor Industries aligns with Livly’s goal of providing technology solutions that enable operators to provide the best resident experience possible,” said Alex Samoylovich, Livly’s founder and co-CEO. “Through this collaboration, property managers can offer greater protection with immediate water leak notifications, effectively mitigate potential water emergencies, and reduce insurance claims for both the property and residents.”
