Assek and AHGM: Strengthening Ties With the Hospitality Sector

As a partner of the Greater Montreal Hotel Association, Assek took part in the 51st edition of the Bill-Brown tournament, a day of conversations with members and partners from the hospitality sector.

On June 11, Assek participated, as a partner of the Greater Montreal Hotel Association (AHGM), in the 51st edition of the Bill-Brown golf tournament and its day of activities.

Held between Club de Golf Windmill Heights and Château Vaudreuil, the event brought together hospitality professionals around the tournament, a cooking activity, and a silent auction in support of La Tablée des Chefs.

For the Assek team, the day was above all an opportunity to speak directly with members, suppliers, and partners from the sector. Despite the very present heat, the conversations were numerous and genuinely interesting.

Staying Close to Field Realities

These conversations are useful for Assek because they keep us close to real field conditions. In a hotel, an undetected leak can quickly affect rooms, operations, and the guest experience. Understanding how buildings are managed day to day helps us propose prevention solutions that are more relevant, easier to integrate, and better adapted to the teams already in place.

That is also what gives value to our partnership with AHGM. The association brings together the people and organizations who understand the real challenges of Montreal’s hospitality sector. For Assek, being part of these conversations helps us better understand the sector’s priorities and continue developing practical approaches to reduce the risks related to water damage.

Thank you to AHGM for organizing the event, and to the members and partners present for the conversations.

These meetings help us keep our solutions close to field realities, where they need to work.

FAQ

Why is water leak detection important in a hotel?

In a hotel, a water leak can quickly affect rooms, operations, and the guest experience. Fast detection helps teams respond earlier and reduce the impact of an incident.

How does a water leak detection system for hotels work?

Connected sensors are installed in risk areas. When water is detected, the system sends an alert to the right people and can, depending on the setup, trigger an automatic water shutoff.

Where should water leak sensors be installed in a hotel?

Sensors can be installed near risk areas such as mechanical rooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, water heaters, and main water lines. Placement depends on the building’s configuration.

Can Assek solutions be integrated into an existing hotel?

Yes. Assek solutions are configured according to the building, its risk areas, and the needs of the teams. The goal is to integrate with existing operations without adding unnecessary complexity.
