YoLink Hub 3 Smart Home Gateway: 4G LTE Cellular ($6.99 Monthly Fee), WiFi, Ethernet, Battery Backup Seamless Plug & Play Installation, Ideal for Remote & Urban Residences, 1/4 Mile Extended Range

YoLink has many home monitoring systems including water links, video and thermostats. I use only the water leak detection system. The system uses an app to program and control leak detectors that automatically detect and send notifications to email and mobile phone. I also installed an online inline automated water valve to turn off the water if a leak is detected. I have placed a detector near the washing machine, the refrigerator and dishwasher, and the water heater. Basically, anywhere there could be water leaks, there is a small detector. The detectors also have great range. I even put one near the intake from the well to monitor for frozen pipes. The system works extremely well. It will also connect to the internet to allow for online control anywhere there is internet. However, internet is NOT needed for the system to detect and turn off the water. But is needed for online control and notification. Not sure if you can set up for a phone call notification. The valve cutoffs are very good quality and work flawlessly. I have the model that allows you to simply fit it to the existing cutoff valve. This setup allows for a simple install usually without a plumber. There is also an improved inline cutoff valve that sadly was not available when I installed my system. This newer improved model completely replaced the existing cutoff valve. Or you could install the new inline valve in addition to the existing valve. Mine is in the pump house but it can easily be installed in the water cutoff box coming from the street. The system worked well for multiple years until I began having “detector offline” notifications. YoLink support worked immediately with me to diagnose and solve the issue. They even added an additional hub at their expense. All in, a very well designed and constructed system with excellent customer support. The app is also top quality. I would definitely recommend YoLink for instant peace of mind that your home will not be flooded while at work or traveling.

Having used a lot of home automation devices over the years (including X-10 and Z-Wave), this one is superior. Their installation process is quick and simple. They supply QR codes to get you started. The smart phone app is easy to use and intuitive. Another good thing is there are no fees to operate it unless you have a lot of sensor activity (high SMS traffic), but the fees are modest. I have heard that integrating to Alexa might be a problem but since I don't use that, I don't care. Having just installed it, only time will tell if it is truly a winner. However, since the hubs are inexpensive, I plan on getting a spare. I believe that installing a new or multiple hubs is pretty easy also. After using this for 6 weeks, I still find it to work very well. The only issue I have encountered is the area I am in has sporadic but brief power outages which can disrupt the operation of the dimmers and switches but they have a retry function available. Update: This product is a winner. Been using this for over a year. Again, their app works well and is easy to use and as far as I have been able to determine, they have all imaginable functions and features covered. All of their devices work well and are reasonably priced, especially compared to Z-Wave. The variety of devices available is outstanding and their solution for operating garage door openers is remarkable. YoLink's customer service is responsive and helpful. Found one small issue with pairing a device: one of the fobs is black with white printing used for the QR code pairing. Their app only recognizes black printing with a white background. The workaround was to scan the QR code, reverse the image and have the app scan the reversed image.

I bought the valve, controller and several sensors for a water link detection system from YoLink. I had an issue with the controller, and YoLink quickly sent me another which solved the problem and now the system works very well. Contact with their tech support was quick and easy both online and by phone, which earns huge points in my book. No long wait times, they were very quick to answer my call and very quick to respond to emails, and they solved my problems and answered my questions very well. Good customer service - 5 stars. I wish all companies had this kind of service. I later bought the hub and another sensor and added them to the system. The installation was a breeze. Couldn't have been easier. The products were well made and well packaged and easily connected to the hub and the app. A hint that I would pass on if you are pairing sensors to the controller without the hub and app: Close the valve first, then pair the sensor to the controller, then open the valve and then test with water on the sensor contacts. Repeat for other sensors to install. Don't try to pair with the valve open is the key - be sure it's closed. Thanks YoLink for a good product that does exactly what it's supposed to do and at what I believe is a very fair price.

Super fácil de ser instalado. A conexão com o medidor de temperatura, distante à 10 metros - e com barreiras entre eles - se dá sem problema algum. A interface da Yolink é muito amigável. Valeu cada centavo.

A little complicated to set up but I think it is only because it is so versatile. I only hooked it to one sensor. The hub is required because the sensor itself does not connect to Wi-Fi. It must go through the hub. I tested the water level in my sump, the alarm sounded but I found it not quite loud enough. I’m not sure if I would hear it when I’m asleep upstairs. Once again, it took me quite a while to hook it up to my email. That also works so the product does what it says. I wanted to hook it up to a second email. However, in order to do that the other person needs to set up an account. I thought that should be a little simpler. However, I’m not sure what the technology requires. I purchased a longer cable and that enabled me to mount the sensor alarm in a living area as opposed to my crawl space. I am more likely to hear it now but I feel it is still not loud enough. I would prefer an alarm that would wake the dead- I do not want water damage despite having installed an alarm. Good product - does what it says. NOTE I am somewhat hearing impaired.

This is one of several products I’ve bought from Yolink. I have several water sensors and thermometers as well I use thermometers outside in temperatures that go as low as -30. Over the course of 2 years none of the sensors have malfunctioned and they still have more than 3/4 battery charge. I had a speaker that started glitching after a1.5 years and I when I contacted the company through email they instantly responded and promptly sent a replacement. Highly recommend them

works perfect, easy to setup. batteries been in for over 12months and still going strong. best on market

No se le conecta el detector remoto de la misma marca. Un engaño. Servicio postventa que se desentienden.
