Abstract:
A standing water alert system comprises two conductive wires or a float extending into a drain and connected to an audible or visual alarm that is triggered when standing water is present. A drain alert system and method comprises a plurality of sensors, such as pressure or acoustic/vibration sensors, at various locations within a plumbing or fluid filtration system to measure pressure or an acoustic profile at that location and a control system to compare the measured parameters to a threshold value or range and/or to other measured parameters from nearby sensor locations. A signal is sent to a remote user or computer or an alarm is triggered when the comparison shows a potential blockage, a leak, or indicating that a filter needs to be replaced or cleaned. An approximate location of the blockage, leak, or fouled filter is determined by comparing measured parameters at nearby sensor locations.

Claim (Index 15):
The alert system of  claim 13  further comprising:\n a second sensor connected to a pipe or conduit upstream of the filter and at least one sensor connected to a pipe or conduit downstream of the filter to measure a parameter within the fluid filtration system at a location of the second sensor; and \n wherein the control system is configured to receive signals from the second sensor, to compare the measured parameter from the second sensor to the measured parameter from the first sensor to determine a change of parameters across the filter, to compare the change of parameters across the filter to a threshold value or range of values, and to send a signal to a remote user or remote device or trigger an alarm when the measured change of parameters across the filter is above or below the threshold value or outside the range of values.
