Keep the flood
next door.
Most basement floods don’t start with a storm warning.
They start quietly — a backup forming in your sewer line,
water rising where you can’t see it, long before it reaches your floor.
Qixli Early Flood Detection monitors your sewer connection and alerts you the moment something’s wrong — giving your family time to act before disaster strikes.
Installed locally by Kodiak Security Systems — your Certified Qixli Partner in Ottawa.
The three ways your basement gets flooded
But that doesn’t mean you’re protected.
Your valve sticks shut.
If your backwater valve gets stuck in the closed position, it blocks your home’s own waste water from flowing out. Sinks back up. Toilets overflow. The flooding comes from inside — and it can happen any time, rain or shine.Your valve sticks open.
During heavy rain or a flood event, the city’s drainage system can be overwhelmed. Sewage reverses direction through your main line — and if your backwater valve is stuck open or fails, it goes straight into your basement.
You get the alert first.
Qixli monitors conditions at your sewer connection in real time. Whether the risk is coming from inside your home or from the city system, you’ll know before the water does. Early warning means you can act before a backup becomes a disaster.
The technology
Monitoring where it matters most.
You don’t need an existing alarm system.
Qixli works completely independently of your home’s existing security setup. No security panel required. The Q2 connects directly to Kodiak’s monitoring team and delivers real-time alerts straight to your phone via SMS or email — the moment a risk is detected.
And unlike smart home devices that go dark when your internet does — Qixli keeps working even if your WiFi goes down. Because a flood doesn’t wait for your router to reboot.
