You wake up to dry floors and peace of mind instead of water damage chaos. No more surprise water bills that double overnight or emergency calls about burst pipes flooding your kitchen while you’re at work.
Your Moen water leak detector system monitors every drop flowing through your home, learning your family’s usage patterns and catching problems before they become disasters. When it detects trouble—even leaks as small as one drop per minute—it shuts off your water supply automatically and sends instant alerts to your phone.
This isn’t just about preventing one expensive repair. It’s about protecting everything you’ve built in South Sacramento—your home’s value, your belongings, and your family’s comfort. The average water damage claim costs nearly $14,000, but early detection systems reduce claim events by 96%.
We’ve served South Sacramento homeowners for over two decades, building a 5-star reputation through quick response times, professional service, and transparent pricing that often comes in under estimate. We’re certified Moen Pro installers, meeting strict standards for technical expertise and customer service.
Our team understands Sacramento’s unique water challenges—aging infrastructure in established neighborhoods like Land Park and Pocket, seasonal ground shifts that stress underground lines, and the pressure fluctuations from Sacramento’s municipal water system. We’ve installed hundreds of smart water monitoring systems throughout the region.
When you call us, you get technicians who show up on time, explain everything in plain English, and stand behind their work with the confidence that comes from 24 years of local experience.
We start with a free consultation to determine the right Moen leak detector system for your home’s water line size and layout. Most South Sacramento homes built in the 1970s and 80s need the 3/4-inch Flo Smart Water Monitor, while newer construction typically requires the 1-inch model.
Our certified technician installs the device directly on your main water line—usually in your garage, basement, or utility area where the line enters your home. The installation includes cutting into your existing plumbing, installing the monitoring device with proper fittings, and connecting it to your home’s Wi-Fi network.
We configure the Moen Smart Water App on your phone and walk you through all features before we leave. Within the first few days, the system learns your household’s water usage patterns, then begins running daily micro-leak tests during low-usage periods. If it detects problems, you get instant notifications, and the system can automatically shut off water to prevent damage.

Your Moen leak detector installation includes the smart water monitor, professional setup, app configuration, and comprehensive training on all system features. We also strategically place additional Smart Leak Detectors in high-risk areas specific to Sacramento homes—near garage water heaters, under kitchen sinks where garbage disposals create stress points, and in laundry rooms where washing machine hoses commonly fail.
South Sacramento faces particular risks from the area’s clay soil that expands and contracts seasonally, potentially shifting underground pipes. Your system addresses these local challenges with technology that detects pressure changes and flow irregularities that might indicate developing problems.
Every installation includes Moen’s three-year FloProtect plan with extended warranty coverage and up to $5,000 in insurance deductible protection. We provide ongoing support, system updates, and can add more leak detectors as your needs evolve. Our local presence means we’re available for service calls, system adjustments, and any questions that arise.
Moen water leak detector installation in South Sacramento typically ranges from $500 to $1,500 depending on your system choice and home setup. The basic Flo Smart Water Monitor with professional installation starts around $500, while comprehensive systems with multiple leak detectors and battery backup reach $1,500.
Most Sacramento homeowners choose the Enhanced Bundle at $800-900 installed, which includes the main water monitor, one Smart Leak Detector for high-risk areas, and the FloProtect plan with warranty coverage. This investment pays for itself quickly—the average water damage claim costs $13,954, and 60% of homeowners discover unknown leaks within their first month of installation.
We provide free estimates and offer financing options to make water damage protection affordable for every household. As a local company with low overhead, we often beat larger competitors’ pricing while providing superior service.
Yes, with the optional battery backup system, your Moen Flo device continues monitoring and can shut off water for up to 4 hours during power outages. This feature proves particularly valuable in Sacramento, where PG&E occasionally implements Public Safety Power Shutoffs during high wind events in nearby foothills.
The battery backup automatically activates when power fails, maintaining full leak detection and automatic shutoff capabilities. It sends notifications about power status through the app, so you know your system remains operational even when neighborhood lights go out.
Without battery backup, the system resumes normal operation immediately when power returns, but cannot actively monitor or control water flow during outages. Given Sacramento’s weather patterns and utility practices, most homeowners opt for backup power protection.
Absolutely. The Moen system is designed for expansion as your needs change. You can add Smart Leak Detectors anywhere water damage might occur—under sinks, near appliances, in basements, around water heaters, or in crawl spaces where pipes run.
Each additional detector connects wirelessly to your main system and appears in your Moen app with its own monitoring zone. They track temperature and humidity in addition to detecting moisture, helping prevent mold growth and freeze damage during Sacramento’s occasional cold snaps.
We recommend starting with detectors in highest-risk areas and expanding over time. Popular Sacramento locations include garages where water heaters are commonly installed, utility rooms with washing machines, and under kitchen sinks where garbage disposal connections create potential leak points. Most homeowners add 2-3 additional detectors within their first year.
Moen’s leak detection technology can identify problems as small as one drop per minute using advanced MicroLeak testing. The system runs daily pressure tests during low-usage periods—typically between 10 PM and 6 AM—to detect tiny leaks that might go unnoticed for months without smart monitoring.
The system employs artificial intelligence to learn your family’s water usage patterns, distinguishing between normal activities like long showers, pool filling, or lawn watering and actual leaks. You can adjust sensitivity settings through the app to match your household’s specific needs and usage habits.
Smart Leak Detectors placed strategically around your home detect moisture instantly when water contacts the sensor, providing immediate alerts for appliance leaks, pipe bursts, or other water intrusion. This dual-layer protection catches both hidden plumbing problems and visible water issues before they cause significant damage.
When your Moen water leak detector identifies a potential problem, you receive immediate notifications through multiple channels—the smartphone app, text messages, email, and phone calls. For minor issues like small pressure changes, you get alerts but water continues flowing so you can investigate without disruption.
For major problems like burst pipes, high flow rates, or catastrophic failures, the system automatically shuts off your main water supply to prevent flooding. You can also shut off water remotely through the app if you’re away from home and receive an alert.
The app provides detailed information about what triggered the alert—high flow rates, pressure irregularities, or moisture detection from specific sensors. You can then decide whether to restore water flow remotely after addressing the issue or contact a plumber for professional repairs. The system maintains a history of all events for insurance purposes and troubleshooting.
Yes, Moen requires professional installation for the Flo Smart Water Monitor because it involves cutting into your main water line and making permanent plumbing connections. Improper installation can cause leaks, void warranties, or create system malfunctions that compromise protection.
We maintain certified Moen Pro installer status, meaning our technicians complete ongoing training and meet strict certification requirements. Professional installation ensures your water leak detector system works correctly, maintains warranty coverage, and meets local plumbing codes.
Individual Smart Leak Detectors that monitor specific areas can be placed by homeowners since they simply sit on floors or attach to walls. However, the main water monitor requires licensed plumbing expertise, proper tools, and knowledge of water pressure systems. Our typical installation takes 2-3 hours and includes complete system setup, Wi-Fi connection, app configuration, and comprehensive user training.
