Every year, water damage causes significant losses in healthcare facilities. A simple water leak, if not detected quickly, can lead to high costs, infrastructure deterioration, and health risks for patients and staff. However, thanks to new technologies, prevention is more accessible than ever.

Why is water damage a major issue in healthcare?

Excessive humidity and undetected leaks are invisible yet formidable threats to hospital and medical infrastructures. Without proactive monitoring, damage can accumulate quickly, leading to costly interventions and disrupting the smooth operation of healthcare facilities.

Some alarming figures:

• Average cost of water damage in a healthcare facility: Between $50,000 and $500,000, depending on the severity of the incident and the necessary repairs. (Source: Ministry of Health and Social Services of Quebec)
• Average time to detect a leak without a smart system: Several hours, or even days, if the leak occurs in a low-traffic area. (Source: National Institute of Public Health of Quebec)
• With a smart monitoring system like Assek IoT: Detection in just a few minutes, thanks to real-time alerts, preventing humidity buildup and infrastructure deterioration.

Calculate and compare the types of interventions for water damage.

Prevention: a profitable investment

Rather than dealing with the consequences of water damage, it is more strategic to invest in an effective prevention system.

Installing smart sensors allows you to:

• Detect humidity and leaks in real-time before they cause damage.
• Avoid costly service disruptions and emergency repairs.
• Protect infrastructures from mold and deterioration.
• Reduce long-term maintenance costs by anticipating issues before they escalate.

Thanks to solutions like Assek IoT, infrastructure monitoring becomes simple, effective, and proactive. Our sensors provide continuous protection by monitoring humidity and leak risks, ensuring real-time water damage prevention.
