Customer Reviews

Peace of Mind... And it works, too!
A flood is awful. We use water everyday, but not a whole lot of our stuff is waterproof, so when water meets stuff, it's usually time for new stuff.
This little flood alarm does exactly what it says. It emits a REALLY LOUD alarm when the probe comes in contact with water. I installed this near our washing machine after a minor flood because of overflow at the drain.
About three weeks later, peace of mind turned into a real stuff saver when it overflowed again. Granted, now we need to have the drain looked at, but the investment in a flood alarm was well worth it.

Rialco 84010 Flood Alarm: Not Loud Enough
I returned the Rialco 84010 Flood Alarm because it was not loud enough to be useful.
I received a phone call from James J. Boyle IV, President of Operations, Quality e Companies, which
shipped the alarm. Mr. Boyle said he would be sending me a check for $5.22 to cover postage I had incurred with my order. I was not satisfied with the alarm, but I was with the reply I received from Mr. Boyle.

Great item
I lost a wood floor due to a leak under my dishwasher that ran below the wood floor and warped the whole thing. It was a terrible mess and was insured but the insurance company tried to salvage the floor so we went through 3 weeks of hell with exhaust fans, humidifiers etc running in the house and a salvage employee constantly dropping in to check on the machines. A nightmare!!!
I put one of these in every place I could think of in the house where a water leak would cause damage. Since I put these in they have caught a leak below the dishwasher, one below/inback of the refrigerator (ice maker) and another below an upstairs sink.
Am I sold??? You bet!
I called my insurance company to see if I could get a discount now that I put these in. No luck. I'm no longer insured for water damage from an internal leak and they are no longer insuring for internal leaks in new policies.
