The sensor should be positioned along the water line of your pool, spa, pond, or water feature. For most applications, we recommend tucking it into the skimmer throat to keep it discreet and hidden.

7. Does LevelSmart Online come in a Wi-Fi version?
No, the LevelSmart does not come with Wi-Fi connectivity. Our goal is to create the most reliable and user-friendly products, which is why we use cellular connectivity.

8. I lost my magnet, can I use any magnet with the LevelSmart?
Any magnet will work, as long as it is strong enough. A thicker fridge magnet or a stronger option typically does the job. Please note that the polarity may not be perfectly aligned, which could cause the LevelSmart to engage a centimeter or two off from the intended spot. We also offer a dedicated LevelSmart magnet for sale. If you'd like to purchase one, simply email support@konalabs.com.
9. What is the warranty on the LevelSmart?
The LevelSmart comes with a 1-year warranty from the date of purchase.
10. How long does the LevelSmart Sensor battery last?
