How it Works
CarePenguin Tracks Events of Water Use
The average senior citizen uses water seven times a day!
(Making tea, washing hands, running the dishwasher, etc.)


Easy Setup
Takes 5 minutes. That’s it!
CarePenguin easily attaches to the hot water pipe output from a water heater and pairs to WiFi through the CarePenguin app
Safe and easy
Our sensor plugs into a nearby outlet and attaches to the outside of the pipe. No changes in plumbing needed!
Notifications and Updates
If something is wrong, we’ll let you know
If we detect a lack of activity, we’ll notify you and encourage you to check in with your loved one to make sure everything is okay.
