Moen Flo Smart Water Shut-Off Valve in Carlsbad

No. The Moen Flo app and all monitoring features are free with no subscription required. Once we install the valve and connect it to your WiFi, you get continuous leak detection, automatic shutoff, and water usage tracking at no ongoing cost. Some competing systems charge monthly fees, but Moen does not.

The valve monitors water pressure, flow rate, and temperature continuously. It also runs an automated pressure test called FloSense every night to detect even tiny leaks. If the system finds an anomaly, like a slow drip or sudden burst, it sends a phone alert and can automatically shut off the water to prevent damage.

Yes. When the Moen Flo detects a sudden high-volume water flow consistent with a burst pipe, it automatically closes the valve and cuts off water to your home. You'll get an instant alert on your phone. You can also manually shut off the water from the app at any time, from anywhere.

A typical Moen smart valve installation in Carlsbad takes two to three hours. That includes cutting into the main water line, installing the valve, restoring water service, connecting the device to WiFi, setting up the Moen app on your phone, and running a system test. We do the full setup so you don't have to figure it out yourself.
