AquaSensing provides battery-free, maintenance-free wireless leak detection systems. Using patented energy-harvesting technology, their sensors monitor for water and industrial fluids across residential, commercial, and industrial infrastructure.
AquaSensing is a Canadian technology company that develops battery-free, maintenance-free wireless leak detection sensors. Founded in 2019 at the University of Waterloo, the company utilizes patented energy-harvesting technology that allows water droplets to power the sensor, enabling long-range connectivity via Bluetooth (BLE), LoRa, 5G, or Satellite. Their product portfolio includes point detectors for precise localized monitoring and customizable 2D sheet or strip sensors for large-area coverage. By eliminating the need for battery replacements, the company aims to provide a sustainable, cost-effective solution for detecting water, steam, condensation, and various industrial fluids.
These sensors are designed to protect critical infrastructure, commercial buildings, data centers, and industrial facilities by enabling early detection of leaks in hard-to-reach or harsh environments, including conditions ranging from -40°C to 300°C. Customers and partners use these solutions to prevent costly water damage, mitigate issues like corrosion under insulation (CUI), and ensure operational continuity in sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, and oil and gas. Through integration with cloud platforms, AquaSensing provides real-time monitoring and alert systems that help property managers and operators reduce maintenance costs and waste.
