New legal requirement: Water leaks in Switzerland must be stopped within 2 minutes. Here’s how casasmooth does it.

Starting in 2027, water leaks in Switzerland must be stopped in under 2 minutes. Learn how casasmooth addresses this requirement with its Automatic Water Shut-off feature.

casasmooth’s automatic water shut-off: leak protection in under 2 minutes

Starting in 2027, Switzerland will enforce a strict new regulation on water leak prevention. All installations must now integrate leak detectors paired with automatic valve shut-off systems, or face penalties. This measure aims to minimize material damage and costs associated with household flooding.

At casasmooth, we have developed an innovative feature called Automatic Water Shut-off. This solution combines two key elements: leak sensors and a water valve control system. When a leak is detected, the valve is automatically shut off in under two minutes, preventing any overflow.
