It’s time for smarter water.
The stopcock was invented in 1864. It hasn’t improved much since.
Water is one the most important resources in any home or building, but in a world where we have smart TVs, smart doorbells, smart thermostats, our water supply remains dumb.
It’s time for that to change.
Watergate is a full-stack solution for monitoring and optimising the water use of homes and businesses, including detecting a wide range of leaks.
Water leaks are the number one cause of damage to property in the UK. They cause as much damage as fires and thefts.*
Award-winning technology
Sonic uses HD Ultrasonic technology to detect low flows of water and identify appliances connected to the plumbing network. Ambient and pipe temperature sensors can alert you to a potential frozen or freezing pipe, helping prevent bursts from occurring in the first place.
