Morristown, NJ – March 18, 2026 – vipHomeLink, the leading prevention enablement platform for insurance carriers, announces an expanded partnership with Co-operative Insurance Companies to now provide LeakBot’s smart water-leak detection and repair solution to eligible policyholders.
In April, Co-operative Insurance Companies will launch the LeakBot water loss prevention program. Policyholders will easily enroll to receive a LeakBot — the simple clip-on IoT sensor that continuously monitors a home’s plumbing system for micro-leaks. When a leak is detected, LeakBot sends alerts directly to the homeowner via its mobile app and dispatches a licensed LeakBot plumber to fix the issue before it leads to major water damage or a disruptive insurance claim.
This LeakBot program, including any detection and repair work, is provided free of charge to Co-operative’s insured homeowners across Vermont and New Hampshire.
“Water damage is the most frequent claim that homeowners face, and this partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to protecting our policyholders’ homes through smart, proactive solutions,” said Lee Dowgiewicz, President and CEO of Co-operative Insurance Companies. “LeakBot is a natural extension of the prevention programs we already offer through vipHomeLink and provides our families with a powerful tool to reduce their risk of water damage, avoid disruption, and gain greater peace of mind.”
“Water damage remains the leading cause of non-weather insurance losses, and early leak detection through LeakBot’s proven technology is critical,” said Jim Strickland, GM of North America at LeakBot. “Alongside our partners at vipHomeLink, I’d like to welcome Co-operative to the LeakBot family of carriers that are choosing to protect their insureds from major, and even catastrophic, water damage.”
Research shows LeakBot can reduce water damage claims by 70%, making it a powerful prevention tool for both carriers and homeowners.
“Our partnership with Co-operative continues to grow,” says Geoff Martin, CEO of vipHomeLink. “Our platform provides complete enablement of prevention programs for our insurance carrier partners, and we’re excited to help Co-operative bring the leading water-leak prevention program from LeakBot directly to their insureds.”
