Water is one of the most essential elements in our lives, yet few of us have tapped into the ways we can control and personalize our water supply. What if you could start your morning shower from bed, so the temperature’s just right when you’re ready to hop in? Or control your sprinkler system from anywhere and know you’re watering your lawn exactly the right amount? Or get an alert telling you there’s a leaky pipe in your home so you can prevent water damage? With the first smart water network for homes, you can.
Read on to discover how managing your home’s water usage just got a whole lot easier.

Convenience and Control at Your Fingertips
Smart home technology is changing the way we live, giving us more convenience, better control and freeing up time when it comes to running our homes. The technology can help you save water — and money — by allowing you to monitor usage so you can make the necessary adjustments to reduce monthly bills.
Your home’s pipes and faucets are the latest features to go high-tech. And while various plumbing technologies are emerging, Moen’s Smart Water Network is the first that allows you to monitor your water usage, detect leaks, personalize your shower temperature and more, all from an app on your smartphone.

Simply connect Moen’s smart-water devices to the Smart Water app and you’ll have complete control of your home’s water in the palm of your hand. “It’s a whole-home eco system that allows you to connect with the water in your home in real ways to solve real problems,” says Mason Hall, head of connected products at Moen.
The smart-water devices can all be installed on existing plumbing — something you can do yourself if you’re handy. Once you’ve connected them to the app, you can turn your water system on and off remotely, customize your lawn’s watering schedule and protect your home from water damage and waste. Connect your network to Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa and control your water with simple voice commands. “It’s about giving you convenience, control and complete peace of mind over your water, even when you’re not at home,” Hall says.

A Greener Lawn Made Easy
Love it or loathe it, caring for your lawn takes time and effort. And it’s all too easy to misjudge how much water your yard actually needs or to forget to water altogether, which can quickly lead to a less-than-lush landscape.
Fortunately, now there’s a simpler way to maintain a healthy lawn. Moen’s smart irrigation system comes in 8- and 16-zone models to suit yards of different sizes and connects to the app so you can turn your sprinkler on and off remotely. Customize daily or weekly watering schedules and water your lawn by individual zone (ideal if some areas need more regular watering than others).
Pair the system with smart wireless soil sensors you place in your lawn, and it will tell you exactly how much water your grass needs based on soil readings taken at three depths; then it automatically adjusts water levels as needed — think of it as “set it and forget it” watering for every part of your yard. Not only that, but the system will automatically shut off based on local weather data, so you needn’t worry that you’ll be watering your lawn when it’s raining.

Protect Your Home From Damage
That dripping faucet, rogue leak under the sink or water unknowingly building up in the basement — damage from undetected water issues can cost thousands of dollars to fix once you discover them. And water damage is more common than you might think: According to Hall, U.S. homes are six times more likely to incur water damage than they are damage from fire.
Thankfully, a smart water monitor and shutoff allows you to take action before leaks have a chance to do harm. Designed to fit on your home’s water supply line and monitor pressure and flow rate, it will notify you at the first sign of a problem. It will even proactively turn off the water supply to prevent damage, even if you’re at work or on vacation.

“It can help you save money and prevent water wastage too,” Hall says. “The system gives you detailed information around your household’s water consumption, down to the specific faucet or shower head. If you choose, you can then set goals to reduce your water usage — say, by taking shorter showers — in order to bring down your bills.”
Or consider smart leak detectors; place these devices anywhere in your home and, once hooked up to the app, they’ll tell you when and where they detect extreme moisture, humidity or high temperatures.

Touchless Faucet Control
For most of us, the kitchen is the busiest room in the home, especially for the person juggling all the cooking and cleaning. With a Moen smart faucet, those tasks become a little bit easier.
This intelligent faucet is the only one on the market that allows you to control water flow and temperature using simple hand motions, which means one less thing to do when you’re busy or have messy hands. Connect the faucet to Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant and you can simply tell it to do what you want: turn water on and off, change the temperature or obey custom commands for your favorite recipes, such as “dispense one cup of water at 78 degrees.”
And there’s no compromising on looks. Motion-sensor smart faucets come in a range of stunning finishes to complement kitchens of every style. Choose from traditional to contemporary faucet shapes in a range of finishes, including matte black, brushed gold, nickel, chrome and black stainless steel.

Your Shower, Your Way
The little things can make all the difference in your day, and that includes a great morning shower at just the right temperature, with no waiting around for the water to heat up. A smart shower makes it possible, allowing you to personalize your experience via app, voice command or controller.
With a simple voice command or swipe of your screen, you can set the perfect water temperature; tell the water flow to start, stop or pause; or save water by presetting the length of the shower. It will even notify you when your preset water temperature has been reached, giving you a few more precious moments in bed.
Connected water — something you didn’t know you needed but soon won’t be able to live without!
