You know that sinking feeling when you discover water damage. The soggy drywall, the ruined floors, the insurance headaches. What if you could catch leaks before they turned into disasters?
That’s exactly what happens with professional Moen leak detector installation. These systems monitor your water 24/7, catching leaks as small as a single drop per minute. When a problem starts, you get instant alerts on your phone—whether you’re at work, on vacation, or sound asleep.
The best part? The system automatically shuts off your water if you don’t respond, preventing minor issues from becoming major catastrophes.
We’ve been serving Little Pocket and the greater Sacramento area with the kind of reliable service that’s getting harder to find. With a 4.7-star rating and a track record of transparent pricing, we’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do.
Our team understands Little Pocket’s unique plumbing challenges—from older homes with aging pipes to newer construction that needs modern protection. When you call Murray Plumbing, you’re getting local expertise backed by professional training and the tools to handle any job properly.
Quick response times matter when water is involved, and that’s exactly what Little Pocket residents get when they choose us.
The installation starts with a consultation where we assess your home’s layout and identify the best placement for your Moen smart water shutoff valve. This device gets installed on your main water line, typically where water enters your home through the garage, basement, or exterior wall.
Next, we’ll strategically place Smart Leak Detectors in high-risk areas—under sinks, near water heaters, around toilets, and anywhere moisture problems typically start. These battery-powered sensors connect to your Wi-Fi and work with the main shutoff valve.
Once everything’s connected, we’ll walk you through the Moen Smart Water App, show you how to customize your alerts, and test the system to make sure it’s working perfectly. The whole process typically takes a few hours, and you’ll have complete protection the moment we’re done.

Your Moen leak detection system does more than just find leaks. It learns your family’s water usage patterns and can alert you to unusual activity—like a toilet that’s been running all day or a faucet left on. The system also monitors for freezing conditions, giving you advance warning when pipes are at risk.
In Little Pocket’s climate, where temperatures can drop unexpectedly, this freeze protection is especially valuable. The system tracks temperature and humidity 24/7, sending alerts before problems develop.
The Smart Water App gives you complete control from anywhere. Check your water usage, see your home’s pressure and flow rates, and turn your water on or off remotely. There are no monthly fees or subscription costs—just reliable protection that works around the clock.
Installation costs vary based on your home’s size and the number of leak detectors needed, but most Little Pocket homeowners invest between $600-$1,200 for a complete system. This includes the main shutoff valve, leak detectors for key areas, and professional installation.
Many insurance companies offer discounts for homes with leak detection systems, which can offset some of the initial cost. More importantly, catching just one leak early can save you thousands in damage repair costs. We provide transparent, upfront pricing so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Moen leak detectors work with virtually all residential plumbing systems. The main shutoff valve is designed for pipes ranging from 3/4 inch to 1-1/4 inch in diameter, which covers the vast majority of homes in Little Pocket.
During the initial consultation, we’ll assess your current setup and confirm compatibility. If any modifications are needed, we’ll explain exactly what’s required and why. The leak detector sensors themselves don’t require any plumbing modifications—they simply monitor for moisture in the areas where you place them.
The main Flo Smart Water Shutoff valve is built to last for many years with minimal maintenance. It’s a precision-engineered device designed for continuous operation. The Smart Leak Detectors run on CR123A batteries that typically last about two years under normal use.
The system will alert you when batteries are getting low, so you’re never caught off guard. Replacement batteries are readily available and easy to swap out. We can also handle battery replacement during routine maintenance visits if you prefer professional service.
Your Moen leak detection system continues protecting your home even without Wi-Fi. The device stores its latest learning patterns locally, so it can still detect unusual water usage and shut off your water supply when necessary.
You won’t receive smartphone alerts during an internet outage, but the core protection remains active. Once your Wi-Fi connection is restored, the system automatically reconnects and resumes full functionality, including remote monitoring and alerts.
While the individual leak detector sensors are designed for easy placement, Moen strongly recommends professional installation for the complete system, especially the main shutoff valve. This component requires cutting into your main water line and precise installation to ensure proper operation.
We have the specialized tools, experience, and licensing required for this type of work. Professional installation also ensures your system is properly configured, tested, and covered by appropriate warranties. DIY installation of the main valve could lead to serious water damage if something goes wrong.
Moen leak detectors are remarkably sensitive—they can detect leaks as small as one drop per minute. The system runs daily micro-leak tests on your plumbing network to identify problems before they become visible or cause damage.
The Smart Leak Detectors placed around your home respond to moisture contact within seconds. They’re designed to distinguish between temporary moisture (like shower steam) and actual water accumulation that indicates a leak. You can adjust sensitivity settings through the app to match your home’s specific conditions and reduce false alarms while maintaining reliable protection.
