These alerts can be sent via push notification, text message, email, and even via a phone call&mdash;if you subscribe to the company&rsquo;s FloProtect service.

It&rsquo;s outfitted with a single-band (2.4GHz) 802.11 b\/g\/n Wi-Fi adapter, so it connects directly to your home Wi-Fi network without requiring a central hub. That makes for a very easy deployment and a relatively low barrier to entry in terms of cost. But if you already have a smart home system that supports leak sensors&mdash;e.g.,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.techhive.com\/article\/3285725\/ring-alarm-review.html\">Ring Alarm<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.techhive.com\/article\/3384916\/samsung-smartthings-hub-2018-review-samsung-s-smart-hub-finally-goes-wireless.html\">Samsung SmartThings<\/a>&mdash;leak sensors compatible with those systems tend to be cheaper, because they don&rsquo;t need their own Wi-Fi adapters. Ring Alarm Flood &amp; Freeze sensors, for example, communicates over Z-Wave and cost $35 each&mdash;$15 less than this product.<\/p>\n<p>The Flo by Moen Smart Water Detector is an excellent solution for alerting you to the presence of water in places it shouldn&rsquo;t be. It&rsquo;s a no-brainer buy if you already have the Flo by Moen Smart Water Shutoff valve, but it delivers plenty of value even if you don&rsquo;t.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to see Flo by Moen add IFTTT support, so that the sensor&rsquo;s alerts could trigger other devices outside the Flo ecosystem. It would be great, for example, if a leak or high humidity alert could trigger a smart bulb to flash a warning in the event you don&rsquo;t have your smartphone at hand or its battery is dead. Perhaps that will come with time. In the meantime, this water leak detector earns our strong recommendation.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"nativo-promo nativo-promo-2 tablet desktop smartphone\"><\/aside>\n<div class=\"end-note\">\n<div id=\"\" class=\"blx blxParticleendnote blxM2010  blox4_html  blxC24070\">Note: When you purchase something after clicking links in our articles, we may earn a small commission.
