CarePenguin brings peace of mind to families with elderly or disabled loved ones living independently by detecting activity in a house through hot water use. The In-Home Activity Sensor easily attaches to the hot water pipe output on a water heater and detects whenever someone uses water in a home, indicating they are up, active, and going about their normal routine. The CarePenguin app shows that activity and alerts family members if there’s a lack of activity.
Q: I want to get this! Does it use electricity or need power? How is it powered?
A: Hi Le! The CarePenguin Activity Sensor plugs into a nearby outlet and that's it! Then, follow the steps in the CarePenguin app to connect to the sensor to the home's WiFi network.
