You’ll sleep better knowing your home has round-the-clock protection against water damage. These smart detectors catch leaks as small as one drop per minute, sending instant alerts to your phone before small problems become expensive disasters.
Your basement stays dry. Your floors remain intact. Your family avoids the health risks that come with hidden moisture and mold growth.
When water damage strikes California homes, the average claim costs over $15,000. But with Moen’s smart leak detection system monitoring your most vulnerable areas, you’re catching problems when they’re still fixable for hundreds, not thousands.
We’ve been protecting Cedar Flat homes for over 24 years. We understand the unique challenges California homeowners face with water damage—it’s the leading cause of insurance claims in our state.
Our licensed plumbers know Moen’s smart leak detection systems inside and out. We’ve seen firsthand how early detection saves families from the stress, expense, and health hazards of major water damage.
As a locally-owned business with deep roots in the community, we’re here when you need us most. Our 24/7 emergency service and 5-star reputation reflect our commitment to keeping your home safe and dry.
We start by assessing your home’s most vulnerable areas—typically around water heaters, under sinks, near washing machines, and in basements where 98% of homes experience some water damage.
Next, we strategically place the compact 3.5-inch Moen detectors in these key locations. The installation includes connecting them to your home’s Wi-Fi network and setting up the smartphone app so you receive instant alerts wherever you are.
Each detector monitors for water, temperature changes, and humidity levels. When something’s wrong, you get notified immediately through your phone, an audible alarm, and LED light indicators. For comprehensive protection, we can integrate multiple detectors with your existing plumbing system or Moen’s whole-home monitoring solution.
Ready to get started?
Your Moen leak detector installation includes professional setup of the devices, Wi-Fi network configuration, and smartphone app training. We’ll show you exactly how to use every feature so you’re confident in your system’s capabilities.
Each detector comes with extension cables and remote sensing discs that reach up to 48 inches—perfect for monitoring tight spaces like behind washing machines or under dishwashers. Cedar Flat’s older homes often have unique plumbing configurations, and we know how to position these sensors for maximum effectiveness.
We also provide ongoing support and can integrate your leak detectors with other smart home systems. When your detectors need battery replacement or if you want to expand your monitoring coverage, we’re just a phone call away with transparent pricing and no surprises.
Moen smart leak detectors are incredibly sensitive, capable of detecting leaks as small as one drop per minute. They monitor three key factors: direct water contact, humidity levels, and temperature changes that could indicate freezing conditions.
The sensors trigger alerts when they detect moisture on their surface, when humidity rises above normal levels that could promote mold growth, or when temperatures drop low enough to risk pipe freezing. You’ll receive notifications through the smartphone app, hear an audible alarm from the device, and see LED light indicators.
This multi-layered detection system means you’re protected against various types of water problems—from obvious leaks to the subtle environmental changes that often precede major plumbing failures.
Absolutely, and we strongly recommend it for comprehensive protection. Most Cedar Flat homeowners benefit from having detectors in multiple high-risk areas like basements, laundry rooms, bathrooms, and near water heaters.
Each detector connects to your home’s Wi-Fi network and can be managed through the same smartphone app. You can assign custom names to each location—like “Basement” or “Kitchen Sink”—so you know exactly where an alert is coming from when you receive notifications.
For maximum protection, we often recommend pairing multiple leak detectors with Moen’s smart water monitor and shutoff system. This combination provides whole-home monitoring with the ability to automatically shut off your main water supply if a major leak is detected, preventing catastrophic damage even when you’re away from home.
Yes, your Moen leak detectors will continue monitoring and providing local alerts even without internet connectivity. The devices will still sound their audible alarms and display LED warning lights when they detect water, so you’ll know about problems if you’re home.
However, you won’t receive smartphone notifications or be able to monitor the system remotely until your Wi-Fi connection is restored. This is why the local audible and visual alarms are so important—they ensure you’re never completely without protection.
Once your internet connection returns, the detectors automatically reconnect to the network and resume sending smartphone alerts. The system is designed to prioritize continuous monitoring, with smart connectivity as an added layer of convenience and remote peace of mind.
Moen leak detectors typically run for 2-4 years on their initial battery, depending on usage and environmental factors. The exact lifespan varies based on how frequently the device sends alerts, the strength of your Wi-Fi signal, and temperature conditions where it’s installed.
The smart system monitors battery levels and sends low-battery notifications through your smartphone app well before the device stops working. This gives you plenty of time to schedule a battery replacement without any gaps in protection.
When it’s time for new batteries, we can handle the replacement as part of our ongoing service, or you can easily do it yourself. The devices use standard batteries available at any hardware store, and the replacement process takes just a few minutes.
Many insurance companies are increasingly recognizing the value of proactive water damage prevention and may offer discounts or coverage for smart leak detection systems. Some insurers specifically recommend devices like Moen’s smart leak detectors because they significantly reduce claim frequency and severity.
We recommend contacting your insurance provider to ask about potential discounts for installing leak detection systems. Some companies offer premium reductions for homes with smart water monitoring, while others may cover part of the installation cost as a preventive measure.
We can provide documentation of your installation and system specifications that insurance companies often require for discounts or claims. If you do experience water damage, having professionally installed leak detectors often supports faster claim processing and demonstrates your proactive approach to home protection.
Most Moen leak detector installations can be completed in a single visit, typically taking 1-3 hours depending on how many devices you’re installing and the complexity of your home’s layout. We often have same-day or next-day availability for these installations.
During your appointment, we’ll assess your home’s most vulnerable areas, install and configure each detector, connect them to your Wi-Fi network, and train you on using the smartphone app. We bring everything needed for a complete installation, including any additional sensing cables for hard-to-reach areas.
For emergency situations where you’ve discovered a leak or want immediate protection, we offer 24/7 service throughout Cedar Flat. Our goal is to get your smart leak detection system up and running as quickly as possible so you can start enjoying that peace of mind right away.
