You’ll sleep better knowing your home is protected. Moen leak detectors monitor every corner where water could cause trouble – under sinks, behind toilets, near water heaters, around appliances. When a leak starts, you get instant alerts on your phone, whether you’re home or away.
No more coming home to flooded floors or discovering damage weeks later. No more worrying about burst pipes while you’re on vacation. The system learns your home’s water patterns and catches problems before they become disasters.
Your biggest investment deserves this level of protection. One small leak can cost thousands in repairs, but early detection means simple fixes instead of major reconstruction.
We’ve served El Dorado County homeowners for over 24 years. We know Foresthill’s unique challenges – the older homes built in the 1970s and 80s, the mountain climate that can stress plumbing systems, and the remote location where a small leak can become a big problem fast.
Local families choose us because we show up when we say we will, explain everything clearly, and charge fair prices. No surprises, no runaround. We’re the plumbers your neighbors recommend when something matters.
Our technicians start by walking through your home to identify the most vulnerable spots – areas where leaks typically start. We place the compact 3.5-inch detectors in key locations like under kitchen sinks, near water heaters, around washing machines, and behind toilets.
Each detector connects to your Wi-Fi network through the free Moen Smart Water app. The setup takes minutes per device, and we handle all the technical details. We test each detector to make sure it’s communicating properly with your phone.
You’ll leave with a system that’s already protecting your home and a clear understanding of how everything works. The detectors run on long-lasting batteries and send you low-battery alerts well before they need replacement.

We provide professional installation of Moen’s complete leak detection lineup – standalone sensors, smart water monitors, and automatic shutoff systems. Each detector includes extension cables that can reach tight spaces up to 48 inches away.
Foresthill homeowners face unique risks with aging plumbing infrastructure and seasonal temperature swings. Our installations account for these local factors, positioning detectors where mountain homes typically develop leaks first. We also integrate systems with existing smart home setups.
Our service includes app setup, system testing, and training on how to respond to different types of alerts. We explain which alerts need immediate attention versus routine notifications, so you’re never confused about what action to take.
Moen leak detectors send instant alerts the moment they detect moisture. You’ll receive notifications through the app, text message, email, or phone call within seconds of water contact. The system operates 24/7, even if your Wi-Fi goes down temporarily.
The detectors are sensitive enough to catch leaks as small as one drop per minute – problems that might go unnoticed for weeks otherwise. This early detection means you can address issues before they cause significant damage to your Foresthill home.
We position detectors strategically so they catch problems at the source, not after water has already spread to multiple areas.
Yes, Moen leak detectors integrate with major smart home platforms including Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Ring, Alarm.com, and NICE. We can help connect your leak detection system to your existing setup during installation.
The integration allows you to include leak detection in your home automation routines and receive alerts through your preferred smart home interface. You can also control certain functions through voice commands or your smart home app.
We test all integrations during installation to ensure everything communicates properly and show you how to access leak detection features through your existing smart home controls.
When paired with Moen’s smart shutoff system, leak detectors can automatically turn off your main water supply to prevent catastrophic damage. You’ll receive immediate alerts and can remotely shut off water through the app if needed.
For homes without automatic shutoff, the system sends escalating alerts to ensure you’re notified. We can show you how to shut off your main water valve and provide emergency contact information for situations requiring immediate professional response.
The system continues monitoring and alerting even during power outages or Wi-Fi disruptions, thanks to local data storage and battery backup features.
Moen leak detectors use CR123A lithium batteries that typically last up to two years under normal conditions. The system sends low-battery alerts well before the detector stops working, giving you plenty of time to replace batteries.
Battery life can vary based on how often the detector sends alerts and environmental conditions. In Foresthill’s climate, most homeowners see battery performance at the higher end of the range due to stable indoor temperatures.
We include battery replacement in our maintenance recommendations and can provide replacement batteries during routine service calls. The battery compartment is easily accessible without removing the entire detector.
Absolutely. The Moen system is designed to grow with your needs. You can add detectors to new areas like finished basements, upgraded bathrooms, or anywhere you want additional protection. Each new detector connects to your existing app account.
We can assess your home during the initial installation and recommend the most cost-effective approach – whether that’s comprehensive coverage upfront or starting with high-risk areas and expanding later. We keep detailed records of your system configuration.
Adding detectors later is straightforward, but we recommend professional installation to ensure proper placement and system integration. We can often add new detectors during routine maintenance visits.
Our installation includes site assessment, detector placement, Wi-Fi setup, app configuration, system testing, and homeowner training. We provide all necessary mounting hardware and handle the technical aspects of connecting detectors to your network.
Our service includes positioning detectors for optimal coverage of your home’s vulnerable areas, setting up custom alert preferences, and ensuring integration with any existing smart home systems. We test each detector before leaving to confirm proper operation.
You’ll receive documentation of your system layout, battery replacement schedules, and our contact information for future service needs. We also provide guidance on interpreting different types of alerts and when to call for professional assistance.
