    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for periodic water leak detection are disclosed. A method includes obtaining, using a water meter, water meter data representing the occurrence of water usage events at a property; determining, based on the water meter data, a periodicity of water usage events; determining that the periodicity of water usage events satisfies water leak criteria; and based on determining that the periodicity of water usage events satisfies water leak criteria, determining that a water leak exists at the property. Determining the periodicity of water usage events can include determining an average time between a start of sequential water usage events; and determining that the periodicity of water usage events satisfies water leak criteria can include determining that the average time between the start of sequential water usage events is less than a threshold time between the start of sequential water usage events.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for performing leak detection. In one aspect, the method includes actions of obtaining water consumption data that is based on first sensor data generated by a connected water meter that is installed at a property, determining, based on the obtained water consumption data, (i) that a water leak is occurring at the property and (ii) a type of water leak that is occurring at the property, in response to determining (i) that a water leak is occurring at the property and (ii) a type of water leak that is occurring at the property, determining, based on a type of water leak that is determined to be occurring at the property, an operation to mitigate potential damages caused by the water leak, and initiating performance of the operation in order to mitigate potential damages caused by the water leak.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for using an optical sensor to monitor light produced by an indicator light of a monitoring system. The optical sensors can monitor attributes of the indicator light in order to detect a blink pattern outputted by the indicator light. In some implementations, video data indicating a blink pattern of a device within a property is obtained. One or more attributes of the blink pattern are identified based on processing the obtained video data. A status for the device is determined based at least on the one or more identified attributes. A system action that corresponds to the status is determined. The system action corresponding to the determined status is performed.

    Abstract: Programmable controller technology, in which data is received that identifies a particular type of HVAC system component that is to be controlled by a programmable controller. Based on receiving data identifying the particular type of HVAC system component, configuration information is accessed for the particular type of HVAC system component. A configuration is determined for one or more interface ports of the programmable controller based on the configuration information for the particular type of HVAC system component. The interface ports of the programmable controller are configured according to the determined configuration. A connection between the particular type of HVAC system component and the programmable controller that satisfies the determined configuration is detected. Based on detecting the connection between the particular type of HVAC system component and the programmable controller that satisfies the determined configuration, the particular type of HVAC system component is controlled through the one or more interface ports.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for performing dynamic water leak detection are disclosed. A method includes receiving, from one or more sensors that are located throughout a property, sensor data; determining, based on the sensor data, a water usage mode of the property; selecting, based on the water usage mode, water usage criteria; receiving current water usage data representing water usage at the property; determining, based on the current water usage data, that water usage satisfies the water usage criteria; and in response to determining that the water usage at the property satisfies the water usage criteria, determining that a water leak exists at the property. The method can include storing water usage criteria corresponding to each of multiple different water usage modes, and selecting, from the stored water usage criteria, particular water usage criteria corresponding to the determined water usage mode.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for water monitoring are disclosed. A system includes one or more processors and one or more computer storage media storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more processors, to cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include determining with a leak sensor that a water leak is occurring at a property; after determining that the water leak is occurring at the property, determining that a water usage profile of a particular water consuming device matches characteristics of the water leak; based on determining that the water usage profile of a particular water consuming device matches characteristics of the water leak, identifying a water consuming device that is likely leaking; and in response to identifying the water consuming device that is likely leaking, performing a system action.
