Hear from Our Customers
Picture walking into your home knowing it’s completely protected. No more worrying about burst pipes while you’re at work or flooding while you’re on vacation.
Your Moen smart leak detector system monitors every drop of water flowing through your home. The moment it detects unusual flow patterns or moisture where it shouldn’t be, you get an instant alert on your phone. If it’s a serious leak, the system automatically shuts off your water supply before damage spreads.
That peace of mind? It’s what our East Sacramento customers tell us they value most. No more surprise repair bills. No more insurance headaches. Just reliable protection that works around the clock, whether you’re home or halfway around the world.
We’ve been protecting East Sacramento homes for decades with our 4.7-star reputation built on quick response times and transparent pricing. We’re not the newest company in town, but that’s exactly why homeowners choose us.
Our technicians arrive on time, explain everything clearly, and often deliver final costs that come in under our initial estimates. When you’re dealing with something as important as protecting your home from water damage, you want plumbers who’ve seen it all and know how to get it right the first time.
East Sacramento’s older homes and proximity to local waterways create unique challenges. We understand these local conditions and install your Moen leak detection system to handle whatever Mother Nature or aging infrastructure throws at it.
First, we assess your home’s plumbing layout and identify the optimal locations for your leak detectors. These aren’t random placements – we strategically position sensors near water heaters, under sinks, around appliances, and in basements where leaks typically start.
Next, we install the main Flo Smart Water Monitor on your home’s main water line. This device learns your family’s water usage patterns and monitors pressure and flow 24/7. We connect everything to your home’s WiFi network and sync it with the Moen Smart Water app on your phone.
Finally, we test the entire system to ensure every sensor communicates properly and you’re receiving alerts correctly. We walk you through the app features, show you how to monitor water usage, and explain how to manually shut off water remotely when needed. You’ll leave knowing exactly how your new protection system works.

Your Moen leak detection system includes multiple smart sensors that can detect moisture, temperature changes, and humidity fluctuations. Each sensor monitors continuously for over three years on a single battery, sending real-time alerts to your smartphone when conditions change.
In East Sacramento, where seasonal flooding and aging infrastructure create ongoing risks, we typically recommend sensors in basements, near water heaters, under kitchen and bathroom sinks, and around washing machines. The main shutoff valve monitors your entire home’s water system, learning normal usage patterns and automatically stopping water flow when it detects problems.
The system integrates with your existing smart home setup and provides detailed water usage reports that can help reduce your utility bills. Many of our East Sacramento customers also qualify for homeowner’s insurance discounts when they install professional leak detection systems, helping offset the investment cost.
The Moen Flo Smart Water Monitor can shut off your home’s water supply in seconds once it detects a significant leak. The system continuously monitors water pressure and flow patterns, and when it identifies abnormal conditions that indicate a major leak, it automatically closes the shutoff valve.
For smaller leaks detected by the individual sensors placed throughout your home, you’ll receive an instant smartphone alert so you can assess the situation and manually shut off water if needed. This two-tier approach gives you both immediate protection from catastrophic leaks and early warning for smaller issues that could become bigger problems.
The speed of response is crucial in East Sacramento homes where water damage can quickly spread through older wooden structures and cause extensive damage to flooring, walls, and personal belongings.
We typically install Moen leak detectors in high-risk areas where water damage commonly starts: near water heaters, under kitchen and bathroom sinks, around washing machines and dishwashers, in basements or crawl spaces, and near HVAC units that produce condensation.
East Sacramento’s older homes often have unique vulnerabilities we address during installation. Homes built before 1970 may have original plumbing that’s more prone to failure, while properties near the American River or in flood-prone areas benefit from basement and ground-level monitoring.
Each detector covers a specific area and can be extended with sensing cables to monitor larger spaces or hard-to-reach areas. We assess your home’s layout, age, and specific risk factors to recommend the optimal number and placement of sensors for complete protection.
Absolutely. The Moen Smart Water app gives you complete control over your home’s water system from anywhere in the world. You can monitor real-time water usage, receive instant leak alerts, and manually shut off your home’s water supply with a few taps on your smartphone.
This remote capability is especially valuable for East Sacramento homeowners who travel frequently or own vacation properties. If you receive a leak alert while you’re away, you can immediately stop water flow to prevent damage and then contact us or another local professional to assess and repair the issue.
The app also tracks your home’s water usage patterns, so you can spot unusual consumption that might indicate a hidden leak even when you’re not receiving direct alerts from the sensors.
Most Moen leak detector installations take 3-4 hours, depending on your home’s size and the number of sensors being installed. The main Flo Smart Water Monitor requires installation on your home’s main water line, which involves shutting off water temporarily while we make the connection.
We schedule installations during convenient times and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. The individual leak sensors are battery-powered and wireless, so they don’t require any electrical work or pipe modifications – just strategic placement in the areas we’ve identified as high-risk.
After installation, we spend additional time testing the entire system, connecting it to your WiFi network, setting up the smartphone app, and walking you through all the features so you’re completely comfortable with your new protection system.
The individual Moen leak detectors throughout your home run on long-lasting batteries and continue monitoring for moisture even during power outages. These sensors can operate for over three years on a single battery and will continue sending alerts to your phone as long as your WiFi network is functioning.
The main Flo Smart Water Monitor requires AC power to operate the automatic shutoff valve. However, Moen offers a battery backup system that provides up to 4 hours of continued protection during power outages, which covers most temporary electrical interruptions.
For East Sacramento homes in areas prone to extended power outages, we can discuss backup power options to ensure your water protection system remains fully functional even during severe weather events or electrical grid problems.
Many homeowner’s insurance companies offer discounts for professionally installed water leak detection systems like Moen’s smart monitoring devices. These systems significantly reduce the risk of major water damage claims, which benefits both you and your insurance provider.
We recommend contacting your insurance company before installation to understand what discounts might be available and what documentation they require. Some insurers want proof of professional installation and system specifications, which we’re happy to provide.
Water damage is one of the most common and expensive homeowner’s insurance claims. By proactively installing leak detection and automatic shutoff systems, you’re demonstrating risk management that insurance companies typically reward with reduced premiums. The annual savings can help offset your initial investment in the system.
