A Lifesaver for Every Home – Govee WiFi Water Sensor 3 Pack Review
I recently purchased the Govee WiFi Water Sensor 3 Pack, and I can confidently say that it’s one of the best investments I’ve made for my home. These little devices are absolute lifesavers when it comes to protecting your property from water damage.Installation was a breeze – just a matter of connecting them to my 2.4GHz WiFi network (note: they don’t support 5G WiFi). Once set up, they worked seamlessly with the Govee Home app, allowing me to monitor the status of each sensor from my phone.The 100dB adjustable alarm is loud enough to get your attention, even in a large house. It’s a reassuring feature knowing that you’ll be alerted immediately if there’s even a hint of water where it shouldn’t be. The fact that you can customize the sensitivity level ensures that false alarms are kept to a minimum.But what truly sets the Govee WiFi Water Sensor apart is its ability to send email alerts. This means you’re not reliant solely on the app – you’ll receive a notification even if you’re away from your phone. This level of responsiveness is crucial for avoiding major water damage incidents.The sensors themselves are well-built and feel durable. They’re compact enough to be discreet, yet sturdy enough to handle any potential moisture. I placed one in my basement, another in the laundry room, and the third under the kitchen sink – all high-risk areas for leaks and water damage.Since installing these sensors, I’ve had a couple of instances where they detected water where it shouldn’t have been. In both cases, I was able to address the issue before any serious damage occurred. It’s incredible how much peace of mind these sensors provide.The battery life is impressive. I’ve had them for several months now, and they’re still going strong. The low battery alerts are another thoughtful feature, ensuring that you’re never caught off guard.In terms of value for money, this pack of three sensors is reasonably priced considering the level of protection they offer. When you compare it to the potential cost of water damage repairs, it’s a small price to pay for such a valuable safeguard.In conclusion, the Govee WiFi Water Sensor 3 Pack is a must-have for any homeowner. It’s reliable, easy to install, and provides an extra layer of security against water damage. Don’t wait until it’s too late – invest in these sensors and save yourself from potential headaches and costly repairs down the line. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to protect their home and belongings.

Please read my recommendation
I received the item and a box of five more sensors about an hour ago. I am professional at home construction, including the plumbing trade. Here’s what I found.After setting up the first sensor to the internet, I proceeded to place that one under my kitchen sink. I looked under the sink with a flashlight and didn’t notice anything on the bottom of the sink cabinet, so I slid the sensor to the back of the cabinet. On doing so, I felt a dampness on the palm of my hand as I placed the sensor. There was a film of water on the bottom of the cabinet. I waited to see if the sensor would go off, as it did when I tested it by wetting a finger and putting it across two of the terminals on the bottom of the sensor. Well, that film of water did not trip the sensor. Wondering why, I placed the sensor on a flat piece of plastic on my work bench and I could see there is a 1/16 inch or so of space between the sensor probes and the flat plastic sheet I put it on. That’s the problem right there. A film of water on the bottom of a cabinet will not set the sensor off. The probes will not contact the water surface.Here’s what I did. I removed the little rubber plugs from each of the four feet of the sensor. Use a sharp object. I placed the sensor on a piece of sand paper on a very flat surface. Rubbing down on the sand paper I sanded the plastic feet down to the same level of the metal probes under the sensor. Now the probes will touch the surface the sensor is resting on. I tried the sensor under the sink again and it immediately tripped the water alarm. A slow drip will not make a puddle of water in a cabinet. It will most likely coat the bottom of the cabinet as it’s being absorbed into the wood or leaking out at the seems of the cabinet.Something about kitchen cabinets: The bottom of kitchen and bath cabinets is usually made of cheap particle board or some material equally water absorbent. A small drip will not form a puddle of water as you might think. The bottom of the cabinet will absorb a small water leak, like a very slow drip, for MONTHS. Probably until the bottom of the cabinet is ruined. You will be able to tell by the bottom of the cabinet sagging down. But here’s what I do with my sink cabinets. I put a heavy bead of caulk around the edge of the inside of the cabinet where the bottom of the cabinet meets the sides. Then I apply two or three coats of varnish to the bottom of the cabinet (we’re talking INSIDE the cabinet here). What this does is make the bottom of the cabinet somewhat water proof, enough that the cabinet material will not absorb a small leak. And a larger leak will run out the FRONT of the cabinet, rather than down the seams between the bottom and sides of the cabinet. And you will notice it before damage is done.Now, the Govee setup. I did find the setup a little confusing I’ll admit. Especially when setting up to the internet. The app wanted me to connect my phone to the wifi of the gateway unit that comes with the sensor. I’m thinking, do I want to do that? And lose my home wifi on the phone? I ended up backing out of the setup. But going back into the app again, I found it was working. I pushed the buttons as directed and setup the 6 sensors I had without issue. As you do each one, and are looking for it in the app screen, pull down the screen to refresh it and you’ll see the device you connected.I gave four stars because: The directions could be a little more precise with the wifi setup of the gateway. The sensor probes should be lowered to pick up any amount of water.Note: The first sensor I installed saved me a big headache had the dripping fitting decided to break sometime down the road. This one find paid for the sensors I put in today. An overall excellent product. Just sand down the feet.UPDATE: 6/29/21 – I had a sensor alarm in my bathroom vanity sink cabinet. I removed the stuff stored under the sink and didn’t see anything around the sensor. I moved the sensor and carefully felt the area with my fingers. With no visible water, the area felt slightly damp to the touch. I took a closer look at all the plumbing with a flashlight, and sure enough, one sink supply connection was the slightest bit wet. Maybe one drop per hour.My description above on how I modified the sensor probes to touch the surface (floor, etc.) had allowed the unit to alarm well before any water started to puddle and soak into the wood and ruin the cabinet.I highly recommend these water sensors and that you modify them as I suggested above.

Impressive, would buy again. (Take time to read other reviews to make your installation easier.)
We bought this sensor kit with some extra sensors two weeks ago to help monitor the house while we were on vacation. Setup was easy after an hour of unnecessarily confusion. Included batteries worked fine, it’s a new installation so I cannot comment on battery life.The manufacture’s directions are unclear … THANK YOU to the Amazon reviewers who wrote terrific explanations to help the rest of us.How well does the Govee app protect privacy? This is not an accusation, it’s just an unknown. So I didn’t want it installed on the phone I use everyday. Here’s an option that also makes it easy to connect to the required 2.4 GHz wifi:I installed the app on an old iPhone that’s connected to our router’s 2.4GHz “guest WiFi”. Using the old phone, and after struggling with the unclear directions, the Gateway connected to guest WiFi and all six detectors paired to their gateway.I also assigned the detectors to location names (e.g. “Water Heater”), so any alerts would immediately direct me to the problem.Then I tested one detector; SUCCESS!!!The audible alarm sounded immediately. Then, within a minute this email arrived: “Your “H5054_48C5” has detected water leakage. Check the area soon to avoid water damage.”Glad that the alert system works, I know there’s a problem somewhere, but that cryptic serial number doesn’t help to find it. Suggest that Govee add “location” to their alert messages.So I like this product. If Govee adds clarity to the installation directions and alert messages they would fully earn a five-star rating! ****

After 9 months of use, the gateway keeps on disconnecting without connecting back to the WiFi. Became useless.Contacted the seller for warranty. Was told to contact Govee directly, who said this seller isn’t an authorised one and warranty is void… A joke… Avoid this seller by all means.The product itself is nice. Buy directly from Govee and you’ll be on the safe side.

Govee WiFi Water Sensor 3 Pack, Water Leak Detector 100dB Adjustable Alarm and App Alerts, Leak and Drip Alert with Email, Wireless Detector for Home, Basement(Not Support 5G WiFi)These are cost-effective Wi-Fi enabled water leak sensor devices. This pack comes with three wireless sensors that check in to a single Wi-Fi plug-in hub. This type of design allows you to buy many sensors for a cost-effective price. There are other water leak sensors that have Wi-Fi built into the leak sensor itself however the obvious trade-off here is that each of those are typically 40 to $70. With this type of design each water sensor uses a 433 MHz RF signal to the central hub. And the hub itself connects to Wi-Fi using 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.Because of the low RF range it is quite capable to be placed pretty much anywhere in your house and reach the Wi-Fi hub.The water detection is very quick and it notifies your phone and sends an email. Within 10 seconds of detection you will get a phone app notification as well as an email and obviously you will hear the siren go off loudly.The water leak sensors have three volume levels for the siren. Basically you would want to set this to the high level. Each of these sensors uses two AAA batteries. The anxiety that one day you will run out of batteries on a sensor is eliminated by the fact that it checks into the app and your phone app displays the battery level of each sensor independently. Each sensor can be labeled to however you want to be descriptive. In order to figure out which sensor is which, you basically trigger the water sensor and the app tells you which one is firing and from that point on you know which sensor to label.This is a very nice water leak detection system not only because it works quickly, but it being wifi enabled to your phone with minimal notification delay, is just invaluable.Disclosure: I own a few dlink water sensors which are all stand alone wifi enabled detectors and they cost 70$ each!!! Quite frankly this govee system works better and notifies you quicker even! I also own non connected water detection sirens..they work great too , you just never know when the battery is dead … And you never know if it’s going off when you’re not home.I recommend this over D-Link and any other non wifi enabled devices. .Hope this helps

One of the best features of this detector is its seamless integration with the Govee app. The app is intuitive and easy to use, providing instant notifications directly to your phone when a water leak is detected. Whether you’re at home, at work, or on vacation, you’ll always be informed of any potential issues.For times when you’re at home, the device has a loud built-in alarm that immediately alerts you to the presence of water. The sound is sharp and effective, ensuring you can quickly take action to prevent any damage.The setup process is straightforward, and the sensor itself is compact and durable. It can be placed in key areas prone to leaks, such as under sinks, near washing machines, or in basements. With its excellent sensitivity, it detects even small amounts of water, offering an early warning system that could save you from costly repairs.

Overall, these are good value with lots of nice features.But there is one really glaring missing feature that Govee needs to add if they want a full 5/5 rating:The android app does not show sensor signal strength to gateway, nor does it show status. So the app shows all the sensors regardless if the gateway sees it or not. So if a sensor is in a puddle of water but the signal is not getting through, you have no way of knowing there is no signal, and of course it does not signal that it detects water. So it creates a false sense of security.I have sent the suggestion to Govee support but no answer. I suggested showing signal strength for each sensor, status of each sensor, and an alarm option if a sensor drops off. I am hopeful they see the logic and add this feature to the app.After final placement of the gateway, I tested each sensor with a plate of water, at the sensor location, to make sure each has a proper signal where they are placed. A painfully tedious process to make sure each is within range, which could be avoided if I had some way of knowing the sensors have adequate signal strength. But even with that precaution, I have no way of knowing if there is a sensor barely within signal range.It is unfortunate that such a overall good system has such a glaring flaw.Otherwise I think it is a pretty good system. Instructions are quite good, so setup was quite simple. And I overall like how the alarm is audible, goes to your phone, and sends an email.Normally I would give a 3/5 rating for such a big flaw, but it is overall a pretty nice package so I give it 4/5.I am sure I am not the only one requesting these additional features, so I am hoping that Govee listens and adds the features in a future update.
