You sleep better knowing your home is protected. No more worrying about coming home to flooded floors or discovering hidden leaks that have been running up your water bill for months.
The Moen smart leak detection system catches problems as small as one drop per minute. It sends alerts directly to your phone and can automatically shut off your water supply before minor leaks become major disasters.
Most homeowners discover leaks they never knew existed within the first month of installation. That early detection saves thousands in potential water damage repairs and keeps your monthly water bills from spiking unexpectedly.
We’ve been serving Cold Springs and surrounding areas since 2009, building our reputation on quick response times and honest pricing. We understand the unique challenges that come with older homes and mountain area conditions in our region.
Our team knows that plumbing emergencies don’t wait for convenient times. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency service and typically arrive within hours of your call, often completing installations the same day.
As a locally-owned business with low overhead, we keep our prices fair while maintaining the highest standards of workmanship. Every installation comes with our commitment to transparency – no surprise charges or hidden fees.
We start with a consultation to assess your home’s plumbing layout and identify the best locations for sensors and the main shutoff device. Most installations require mounting the Flo Smart Water Monitor on your main water line and placing leak detectors in high-risk areas like near water heaters, washing machines, and under sinks.
The installation typically takes 2-4 hours depending on your home’s setup. We handle all the technical work including connecting the system to your Wi-Fi network and setting up the smartphone app. Before we leave, we’ll walk you through how to use the system and adjust your alert preferences.
Once installed, the system runs automatically. It learns your home’s normal water usage patterns and alerts you to anything unusual. You’ll receive notifications through the app, text, email, or phone call based on your preferences.

Your Moen leak detection system includes the Flo Smart Water Monitor that installs on your main water line, plus individual leak detectors for specific areas. The system monitors water pressure, flow rate, and temperature 24/7, running daily micro-leak tests to catch problems early.
In Cold Springs, where mineral deposits from hard water can create additional plumbing challenges, this proactive monitoring is especially valuable. The system can detect the gradual changes that often precede major failures in older mountain area homes.
Each leak detector includes a 48-inch extension cable to reach tight spaces under appliances or behind fixtures. The battery-powered sensors last up to two years and connect seamlessly to the main system for whole-home protection.
The Moen system detects water leaks instantly and can automatically shut off your water supply within seconds of detection. You’ll receive alerts on your smartphone, via text, email, or phone call immediately when a leak is detected.
The system is sensitive enough to detect leaks as small as one drop per minute, which means it catches problems long before you’d notice them yourself. This rapid response prevents minor leaks from becoming major water damage incidents that could cost thousands to repair.
For perspective, 60% of homeowners receive notifications about previously unknown leaks within their first 30 days of having the system installed.
Yes, Moen leak detection systems are designed to work with virtually any residential plumbing setup. The Flo Smart Water Monitor installs directly on your main water line and is compatible with pipe diameters from 3/4 inch to 1.25 inches.
The individual leak detectors are standalone units that can be placed anywhere in your home without connecting to your plumbing. They simply sit on the floor or mount to walls in areas where leaks might occur, like near water heaters, under sinks, or around washing machines.
We assess your specific plumbing configuration during the consultation to ensure proper installation and optimal coverage for your home’s layout.
The Moen system can reduce household water waste by up to 90% by detecting and stopping leaks that would otherwise go unnoticed. Hidden leaks cause the average household to lose nearly 10,000 gallons of water per year.
Even a small leak from a 1/8-inch crack can waste 250 gallons of water. When you multiply that by months or years of undetected leaking, the savings on your water bill can be substantial – often hundreds of dollars annually.
Beyond water bill savings, the system prevents the much larger costs of water damage repairs. The average water damage insurance claim is over $15,000, and many homeowners face repair costs of $10,000 to $30,000 in California.
We typically recommend placing leak detectors near your water heater, under kitchen and bathroom sinks, near your washing machine, around toilets, and in the basement or crawl space if you have one. These are the most common locations where leaks develop.
In Cold Springs, we pay special attention to areas where pipes might be exposed to temperature changes or where mineral buildup from hard water could cause problems. Older mountain area homes often have unique configurations that require customized sensor placement.
Each detector covers the immediate area around it, and the extension cables allow us to position the sensors in tight spaces where leaks are most likely to occur but hardest to spot during regular use.
Yes, professional installation is strongly recommended, especially for the main Flo Smart Water Monitor that connects to your water line. This installation requires cutting into your main water supply and ensuring proper sealing and pressure testing.
Improper installation could result in leaks, water pressure problems, or system failures that leave your home unprotected. We have the tools and experience to install the system correctly while maintaining your home’s water pressure and flow.
The individual leak detectors are simpler to install, but professional placement ensures optimal coverage and proper connection to the main system for whole-home monitoring and automatic shutoff capabilities.
The individual leak detectors use CR123A lithium batteries that typically last up to two years under normal conditions. The system will alert you through the app when battery levels get low, giving you plenty of time to replace them.
The main Flo Smart Water Monitor connects to your home’s electrical supply, so it doesn’t require battery changes. The system is designed to be largely maintenance-free once installed, running automatic self-tests daily to ensure everything is working properly.
We recommend having the system inspected annually as part of routine plumbing maintenance, but most homeowners find the system operates reliably with minimal attention beyond occasional battery replacement for the sensors.
