Flood Protection
When It Comes to Flood Protection, a Local Business Makes All the Difference
A slow leak in an empty home can run for weeks before anyone notices—unless of course you’ve installed a Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff system with Desert Alarm. When the Flo system detects a leak, it alerts you and Desert Alarm. That water is shut off immediately.
- 24/7 Monitoring: Detects leaks as small as a drop per minute
- Automatic Shutoff: Stops water instantly to prevent catastrophic water damage.
- Real-Time Alerts: Get notifications on your phone as soon as it happens.
- Usage Tracking: Better understand your water usage and save on bills.
- Insurance Approved: Designed to support residential and commercial insurance requirements.
Moen Integration
Water Damage Protection for a Home Left Empty
The worst water damage tends to happen when no one is home to catch it. Flood protection watches for trouble so a small leak does not turn into a major repair.
- Prevent Major Flood Damage:
Flo by Moen delivers the best flood and leak defense for homes whose homeowners are away (and even if you are, leaks aren’t always easy to detect).
- Integrate With Alarm.com:
Desert Alarm will connect your Flo by Moen system to the security app you already use. You get alerts as soon as something happens—and so do we!
- Professional Installation:
Our licensed plumbers have installed hundreds of Flo systems. And because we’re local, if anything goes wrong while you’re away, we’ll send a patrol vehicle to check on your home for you.
- Insurance Approved:
Designed to support residential and commercial insurance requirements.

Flood Protection Questions, Answered
How does flood protection work?
We place water sensors where leaks are most likely and tie them into your monitored system. When a sensor detects moisture, it alerts both you and the central station before the water has a chance to spread.
Why do valley homeowners need it?
Almost half of our residential customers spend only part of the year in the valley. A leak in an empty home can run for weeks unnoticed, so catching it early can save you from a very expensive repair.
Can I monitor temperature too?
Yes. Temperature monitoring warns you when the home gets too hot or too cold, which is useful for second homes left empty during the most extreme months of the year.
Does it connect to my security system?
Yes. Water and temperature sensors work with your Qolsys panel and the Alarm.com app, so you manage flood protection from the same place as everything else.
Will I be alerted while I am away?
Yes. Alerts reach your phone through Alarm.com and the central station at the same time, so your home is covered whether you are across town or out of state.
