Protect Your Home From Costly Water Damage
A small plumbing leak can quickly become a major problem. A failed supply line, leaking water heater, burst pipe, or unnoticed drip can cause thousands of dollars in damage before you even realize something is wrong.
The Flo by Moen Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff gives homeowners another layer of protection by monitoring their home's plumbing system around the clock. Installed directly on the home's main water supply line, the system monitors water flow, pressure, and temperature to identify unusual activity and potential leaks.
If Flo detects a serious problem, it can automatically shut off the home's water supply to help prevent a small plumbing issue from becoming a major flood. Homeowners can also receive alerts and monitor their plumbing system from their smartphone.
Cumberland Service Techs provides professional Flo by Moen installation in Lebanon, Mt. Juliet, Hartsville, and surrounding Middle Tennessee communities, helping homeowners take a proactive approach to protecting their property.
How Does Flo by Moen Work?
Flo by Moen is installed on your home's main water line, allowing it to monitor water usage throughout the entire plumbing system.
Rather than waiting for water to reach a traditional leak sensor, Flo continuously monitors how water moves through your plumbing. The system learns your home's normal water-use patterns and watches for changes that could indicate a leak or other plumbing problem.
The system monitors:
- Water flow
- Water pressure
- Water temperature
- Unusual or prolonged water usage
- Small leaks within the plumbing system
- Changes that may indicate a larger plumbing failure
Flo also performs automated plumbing Health Tests designed to identify very small leaks that could otherwise remain unnoticed behind walls, beneath floors, or elsewhere in the plumbing system.
This type of whole-home monitoring can provide an important early warning before a plumbing problem causes significant damage.
Automatic Water Shutoff Protection
Stop a Major Leak Even When You're Not Home
One of the biggest advantages of the Flo by Moen system is its ability to do more than simply tell you that something is wrong.
When the system identifies conditions associated with a potentially serious leak, Flo can automatically close the home's main water valve.
That can be especially valuable when you're:
- At work
- Away for the weekend
- On vacation
- Sleeping
- Managing a second home or rental property
- Away from the property for an extended period
Instead of allowing water to continue running until someone discovers the problem, the system can take action automatically to help limit water damage.
Homeowners can also manually shut their water on or off remotely through the app.
Smart Leak Detection From Your Phone
Know What's Happening With Your Plumbing From Almost Anywhere
Flo by Moen connects your home's plumbing system to your smartphone, giving you greater visibility into what's happening with your water even when you're away.
Through the Moen app, homeowners can monitor their system, receive alerts about abnormal water activity, and control their home's water supply remotely.
Depending on your notification settings, Flo can alert you to issues such as:
- Potential water leaks
- Abnormally high water usage
- Unusual flow rates
- Water pressure concerns
- Low-temperature or potential freeze conditions
- Other unexpected plumbing activity
The app also allows homeowners to view real-time flow, pressure, and temperature information and review water consumption.
It's a convenient way to keep an eye on one of your home's most important systems without constantly checking pipes, fixtures, or appliances yourself.
Find Small Leaks Before They Become Big Problems
Not every plumbing leak starts with water pouring through the ceiling.
Slow leaks can develop around fittings, supply lines, toilets, appliances, or pipes hidden behind walls. Because these leaks may be difficult to see, they can continue for weeks or months before becoming noticeable.
Flo's monitoring technology is designed to identify extremely small changes in your plumbing system. Moen states that its MicroLeak technology can detect leaks as small as approximately one drop per minute during its plumbing Health Tests.
Early detection can give homeowners the opportunity to investigate and repair a plumbing problem before it becomes significantly more expensive.
Add Flo Leak Detectors for Additional Protection
Monitor High-Risk Areas Throughout Your Home
Whole-home monitoring can also be supplemented with Moen Flo Detectors placed in areas where water damage is more likely to occur.
These compact sensors can be positioned near:
- Water heaters
- Washing machines
- Dishwashers
- Toilets
- Sump pumps
- Utility rooms
- Under sinks
- Basements
- Attics
- Other plumbing fixtures and appliances
If a detector senses moisture, it can provide audible and mobile alerts. When properly connected to a Moen Flo Shutoff, a detector can also trigger the home's automatic water shutoff.
Using whole-home monitoring together with strategically placed leak detectors can provide another level of protection in areas particularly vulnerable to water damage.
Monitor Your Home's Water Usage
Flo by Moen isn't only designed for emergency protection.
The system also allows homeowners to better understand how much water their household uses. Through the app, you can review water-use history, monitor consumption, and identify unusual changes in usage.
An unexpected increase in water consumption can sometimes be one of the first signs of a plumbing issue.
Monitoring usage can also help homeowners:
- Identify wasteful water habits
- Spot unusually high consumption
- Set water conservation goals
- Better understand household water demand
- Detect plumbing problems earlier
It's a useful combination of home protection, plumbing monitoring, and water management in one system.

A smart water monitoring and shutoff system can provide valuable protection for almost any homeowner, but it can be especially useful for homes with a higher risk of water damage.
