What is Flo Smart Water Shutoff by Moen?

Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff is a state-of-the-art device that monitors your home's water usage 24/7, detecting leaks, preventing water damage, and even helping you save on water bills. Whether you're at home or away, you’ll have complete control over your water system right from your smartphone.

At Duncan Plumbing, we believe in taking a proactive approach to home protection, which is why we offer professional installation of the Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff.

The Benefits of Flo Smart Water Shutoff

In Santa Cruz, the Flo by Moen valve isn’t just a gadget—it’s a practical ally against water woes, tailored to the town’s coastal charm and eco-minded spirit. Here are some of the reasons why installing Flo by Moen is a smart investment.

Protection Against Water Damage in a Coastal Climate

Santa Cruz County’s coastal climate can accelerate pipe corrosion and increase the risk of leaks or bursts. The Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff features FloSense technology, which continuously monitors water flow and detects even the smallest abnormalities—down to a drip per minute. If a potential leak is detected, it can automatically shut off your water supply, preventing expensive repairs and water damage.

If you live in high-risk areas like Capitola, Aptos, or Soquel, this proactive protection is an essential safeguard for your home.

Peace of Mind for a Unique Lifestyle

From historic bungalows to cliffside retreats, Santa Cruz homes deserve reliable protection. The Flo valve integrates with Alexa and Google Home, and the optional FloProtect plan offers added warranty and deductible coverage. For residents balancing surf culture with homeownership, it’s a low-maintenance way to ensure their properties stay safe.

Remote Monitoring for a Vacation-Friendly Town

Santa Cruz is a popular vacation destination, and many homeowners own second properties or seasonal rentals. With the Flo by Moen, you can monitor and control your water system from anywhere using your smartphone. If unusual activity—like a pressure drop or excessive flow—is detected, you’ll receive instant alerts via text, email, or app notifications.

For homeowners with properties in Scotts Valley, Felton, or the Santa Cruz Mountains, this feature provides peace of mind when you’re away.

Cost Savings Amid Rising Water Rates

With Santa Cruz County’s high water rates and conservation mandates, smart water management is more important than ever. The Flo by Moen system provides real-time water usage insights via the Moen Smart Water App, helping you:

  • Identify water waste from leaks, running toilets, or inefficient irrigation.
  • Reduce water waste by up to 90%.
  • Lower your monthly water bills.
  • Stay compliant with local conservation guidelines.

Supporting Santa Cruz’s Eco-Conscious Community

As a community that values sustainability, Santa Cruz homeowners will appreciate that the Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff promotes responsible water use. Its daily microleak tests and conservation goals help minimize waste and reduce strain on local water sources like Loch Lomond Reservoir.

Frank is the best! He did an amazing job and fixed the errors of the last plumber.
Friday am I called and company returned my message promptly. Had a plumber arrive that afternoon.
Very professional. Took a look, asked some questions and estimated cost to tepair.
Arranged for a Saturday appt and they came and fixed the problem. I appreciate they extra scheduling needed for this work. An excellent representative of Duncan's Plumbing, the plumbers worked very hard to fix my problems on a very hot day.
Recently our vaccum breaker valve blew on our irrigation feed. Volumes of water shot into the air. Frank from Duncan came quickly for the emergency repair and in a friendly, timely and professional manner had the problem fixed and even offered and applied a service discount. We have used Duncan exclusively for over a decade as our premier plumbing service which has included trenching, gas line installation and a major overhall of our hot water systems. Trusted, reliable and professional at all times. Highly recommended.
Excellent work! Very professional and thorough!
Jorge came out yesterday to fix a very loose faucet in my kitchen and fix a leak in my guest bath. The faucet is now tightened up and the leak is no longer an issue. Jorge was ahead of schedule and came before our set time, which was great! He is always very pleasant and efficient. I was even able to get a discount from a postcard they sent in the mail. I will definitely call them again.
Plumber Jed was really and fixed our issue in under an hour
