1. A leak detection system, comprising:
a waterproof membrane;
at least one electrical circuit affixed to an underside of the waterproof membrane comprising an anode and a cathode separated by a gap,
a plurality of perforations through the waterproof membrane superimposed upon the gap;
a leak sensor coupled to the at least one electrical circuit comprising:
a first microcontroller adapted to generate a first signal when the at least one electrical circuit is closed; and
a transceiver adapted to communicate with a gateway;
a remote user application;
a plurality of sensors adapted to measure properties of a liquid; and
a second microcontroller adapted to (i) receive sensor data generated by the plurality of sensors, and (ii) encode a sensor data set comprising one or more measured parameters from sensor data generated by the plurality of sensors.
