FLO by Moen | The Power of Pressure

The Power of Pressure

FACT

Most water meters (and leak detection systems) can’t detect small drips of water. That’s problematic because those small drips are key early indicators of big problems like pipe bursts, and those same small drips can equate to more than 100,000 gallons per year of water released behind walls, in ceilings or underneath slabs, which can cause mold and other problems.

SPOILER ALERT

You can’t prevent this water damage without proactively monitoring the pressure of water in your pipes. That’s why pressure sensing is a cornerstone of Flo by Moen's technology. The only way to ensure that you have no leaks and your home stays secure is through constant monitoring of your home’s plumbing vitals (pressure, temperature, and flow).

The Blood Pressure of your Home

Water pressure in your home is like blood pressure in your body. As high blood pressure puts stress on parts of your body and can cause serious problems, the same is true for the home — high water pressure is serious stress being applied to the entire home’s plumbing. Left untreated, high water pressure can cause bursts in pipes, fixtures and appliances. Just like a balloon when there’s too much air pressure… BURST!

Flo by Moen's proactive technologies monitor pressure in real time, like having a doctor monitoring your blood pressure 24/7. We let you know when things aren’t looking right, so you can maintain your plumbing before disaster strikes.

Knowing You’re Secure
(vs. Assuming You’re Secure)

There’s only one way to have the peace of mind that you don’t have leaks. When the EPA’s WaterSense program certifies a leak-free home, it’s verified through “pressure-loss testing”, NOT via a water meter. Pressure sensing is the only way to certify you don’t have leaks anywhere in your plumbing (no matter how small).

Flo by Moen's MicroLeak™ technology runs proactive pressure-loss tests on your water line every single day, automatically in the background. MicroLeak™ technology identifies tiny leaks you’d likely never know existed but that could cause significant damage over time, like mold behind walls.

Promoting Maintenance

Tiny leaks are a key early indicator of vulnerability in the water system’s pipes, fixtures and appliances. That’s why knowing they exist is crucial.

Flo by Moen’s MicroLeak™ technology identifies these key indicators and promotes maintenance through alerts, troubleshooting tips, and helping you deploy professional assistance.

Never Miss a Drip™

The best way to avoid water damage is to prevent it. Backed by years of product development and industry leading technology, the smart water valve detects and stops leaks. From your toilet, shower or faucet, to the pipes in your foundation and behind your walls, the smart water valve monitors all of them so there's no surprises on your water bill or catastrophes when you come home from vacation.
