You get peace of mind knowing your home is monitored around the clock. When the Moen smart leak detector senses water where it shouldn’t be, you’ll know immediately through your smartphone. No more discovering damage weeks later when it’s already cost you thousands.
These systems catch problems early—before that small drip under your washing machine turns into a flooded laundry room. Before a slow leak behind your water heater destroys your floors and walls. The technology works even when you’re not home, sending alerts the moment moisture is detected.
Your detector monitors temperature and humidity too, protecting against freeze damage and mold conditions that could affect your family’s health and your home’s value.
We’ve been protecting Alta homes with reliable plumbing solutions and transparent service for over 100 years. Our team understands the specific challenges Alta homeowners face with water damage, from seasonal weather changes to aging home infrastructure.
We’ve built our reputation on showing up when we say we will and charging what we quote. No surprise fees, no diagnostic charges that turn into sales pitches. Just honest work from plumbers who know that your home is your biggest investment.
When you need Moen leak detector installation or any plumbing service, you’re getting technicians who’ve seen it all and know how to get it right the first time.
We start with a consultation to identify the best locations for your detectors—areas like near your water heater, under sinks, by your washing machine, or in your basement where leaks commonly occur. Each detector can monitor a specific zone, and the 48-inch sensing cable lets us reach tight spaces.
Our technicians handle the complete setup, from connecting your detectors to your Wi-Fi network to configuring the smartphone app with your preferred alert settings. You can choose to receive notifications through the app, text messages, phone calls, or email.
After installation, we test each detector to ensure it’s working properly and show you how to use the system. The detectors run on long-lasting batteries and will alert you if power gets low. If you have multiple detectors, they all connect to the same app for centralized monitoring of your entire home.

Your Moen leak detector system includes 24/7 water monitoring, temperature and humidity tracking, and smartphone connectivity. The battery lasts over three years, and the system works independently or integrates with other Moen smart water products.
Alta homeowners particularly benefit from the temperature monitoring feature during our occasional cold snaps, getting alerts before pipes freeze. The humidity monitoring helps prevent mold growth in areas like basements and crawl spaces that are common in older Alta homes.
Each detector can be customized with location names like “laundry room” or “master bathroom” so you know exactly where attention is needed. The system also works with Amazon Alexa for voice control, fitting seamlessly into modern smart home setups that many Alta residents prefer.
Installation costs vary based on how many detectors you need and the complexity of your home’s layout. Most Alta homeowners install 2-3 detectors to cover their main risk areas like the kitchen, laundry room, and basement.
We provide upfront pricing before any work begins—no surprise charges or hidden fees. The investment typically pays for itself by preventing just one water damage incident, considering that even minor leaks can cost thousands in repairs.
Our pricing includes complete setup, Wi-Fi configuration, app setup, and testing to ensure everything works properly before we leave.
Yes, Moen leak detectors work with any plumbing system because they detect water presence rather than connecting directly to your pipes. They’re designed to catch leaks from any source—whether it’s a burst pipe, failed appliance connection, or water heater issue.
The detectors are standalone sensors that you place in strategic locations around your home. They don’t require any modifications to your existing plumbing, making installation straightforward regardless of your home’s age or pipe materials.
If you want the ultimate protection, the detectors can also integrate with a Moen smart water shutoff valve that we can install on your main water line for automatic water shutoff when leaks are detected.
You’ll receive alerts within seconds of water detection. The system sends notifications through multiple channels based on your preferences—smartphone app, text message, phone call, or email—so you’re informed immediately regardless of how you prefer to be contacted.
The detectors work 24/7, even when you’re sleeping or away from home. This instant notification means you can take action quickly, whether that’s shutting off water at the source or calling us for emergency service.
Fast response is critical because water damage accelerates quickly. Getting alerted in the first few minutes rather than discovering a leak hours or days later can save you thousands in damage and restoration costs.
We typically recommend placing detectors near your water heater, under kitchen and bathroom sinks, near your washing machine, and in basements or crawl spaces. These are the most common locations for leaks that cause significant damage.
In Alta homes, we also consider factors like your home’s age, whether you have appliances in upstairs locations, and areas where you’ve had previous plumbing issues. Older homes might benefit from additional coverage near the main water line entry point.
The 48-inch sensing cable allows us to position detectors optimally, even in tight spaces like under appliances or in corners where water might collect. We’ll walk through your home and recommend the best placement for maximum protection.
Maintenance is minimal—mainly just checking that the detector is clean and the battery indicator shows good power. The CR123A lithium batteries last over three years under normal conditions, and you’ll get low battery alerts well before they need replacement.
Occasionally wipe down the sensors to remove any dust or debris that might affect sensitivity. The detectors will self-test regularly and alert you through the app if there are any system issues that need attention.
We recommend testing your detectors every few months by placing a small amount of water on the sensor to confirm alerts are working properly. This quick test ensures your protection system is ready when you need it most.
Yes, Moen leak detectors connect to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, which is standard in most homes. During installation, we handle the complete Wi-Fi setup and ensure strong signal strength in each detector location.
The Wi-Fi connection enables smartphone alerts and remote monitoring through the Moen app. You can check detector status, review alert history, and adjust settings from anywhere with internet access.
If you have Wi-Fi coverage issues in certain areas of your home, we can discuss solutions like Wi-Fi extenders to ensure reliable connectivity for your leak detection system. Proper connectivity is essential for the real-time alerts that make these systems so effective.
