Kitchener, ON (Jan. 18, 2021) – Alert Labs is pleased to announce that its leak and flood detection solutions will be offered by Chubb to commercial property clients across Canada. The professional-grade, cellular-connected water management solutions from Alert Labs monitor water use minute-by-minute and instantly alert property managers in the event a leak, flood, temperature, humidity and power outage is detected at a building.
Chubb is a part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), a leading global provider of healthy, safe and sustainable building and cold chain solutions.
“Property management companies, condominium boards and other building owners/operators understand the value of a security alarm system for their buildings,” said George Tsintzouras, CEO at Alert Labs. “We think of our solutions as water damage security systems. When unusual activity occurs, property and maintenance teams are notified so that the right action can be taken to resolve the issue. This is especially beneficial when there isn’t anyone in the building and water shouldn’t be running. You can address the leak or flood before it becomes a catastrophic, more expensive problem.”
As a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic and physical distancing, many commercial buildings are unoccupied and maintenance teams have limited access to these facilities. Chubb’s latest security offering provides enhanced and comprehensive building protection with the addition of customizable remote water monitoring solutions. Clients can better maintain their buildings, manage water use and minimize the risk of property damage.
“Our relationship with Alert Labs is very timely,” said Mark Allen, director of security branch network, Chubb. “Many of our customers are looking for new and innovative ways to have insight into their buildings as occupancy rates and business operations change across Canada. We look forward to providing Alert Labs’ commercial-grade solutions that will help our clients protect their properties 24/7 from water damage.”
