“Water damage is claimed six times more than fire and eight
times more than theft, accounting for 24 percent of all insurance
claims.** Not only does this create financial and emotional
hardship for homeowners, it strains the home insurance industry and
wastes an estimated one trillion gallons of water nationwide***
each year,” said Jeff Barnes, vice president, business development,
Moen. “We are excited to partner with CalWEP to help educate
consumers on the prevalence and serious impacts of household leaks,
and to provide them with easier access to our game-changing Flo
Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff. Together, we’re bringing an
essential leak detection and water conservation tool to a state
that is in critical need of it.”
Through this new program, CalWEP’s member organizations – which
include over 225 water agencies, corporations, government agencies,
and non-profit organizations – will have the opportunity to enable
their customers to purchase the Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff
through a dedicated program website. Customers also may be eligible
to receive an instant rebate on the device if purchased through
this portal. Instant rebates will be funded by the participating
member water agencies, with each one determining the specific
rebate amount for their residents.
“At CalWEP, we are working to maximize water efficiency through
cutting-edge programs, collaborative partnerships, and innovative
water-saving technologies,” said Tia Fleming, CalWEP’s co-executive
director. “We look forward to working with such a trusted brand as
Moen to make smart leak detection more accessible to communities
across California in partnership with our member water
agencies.”
The Moen® Flo Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff continuously
monitors the pressure and flow rate of the water moving through a
home's pipes, with the ability to leverage its MicroLeak™
Technology to detect leaks as small as a drop per minute – anywhere
in the home. If the device identifies an issue, it will promptly
send an alert through the Moen Smart Water Network App, enabling
users to turn off the water, or it will automatically shut off the
water to prevent major damage. Homeowners also can track water
usage by fixture and set conservation goals within the app to
further support water-saving efforts.
The Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff – along with many other
smart and water-efficient products in the Moen portfolio – also
helps support Mission Moen, the company’s commitment to protect and
preserve the world’s most precious resource, water, with the goal
of leveraging product innovation to save up to 1 trillion gallons
of water by 2030.
The CalWEP program is anticipated to launch later this year. The
program will run for an initial three-year period in California,
with potential to expand nationwide through CalWEP’s partner
organization, the Alliance for Water Efficiency, which is a
non-profit organization that promotes an efficient and sustainable
water future across North America.
