Frontdoor and Moen Expand Smart Water Monitoring Partnership
Frontdoor, Inc., a leader in the U.S. home warranty sector, enhances its commitment to home protection by expanding its partnership with Moen to include the Moen® Flo Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff in six additional states: Connecticut, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, New Jersey, and Tennessee. This strategic move, effective from January 31, 2023, brings the total number of states participating in this initiative to 14, following the initial rollout in states such as California and Texas. The collaboration focuses on proactively addressing the risks associated with water damage in homes, a significant concern for homeowners and insurers alike.
The Moen Flo device represents a technological advancement in preventative home maintenance, utilizing Microleak™ Technology to detect even the smallest leaks, thereby minimizing the potential for catastrophic water damage. According to Moen's Vice President of Business Development, Jeff Barnes, the device has shown to reduce non-weather-related water insurance claims by an impressive 96%. By continuously monitoring water pressure and flow, the Moen Smart Water Monitor not only alerts homeowners to potential leaks via the Moen Smart Water App but also automatically shuts off the water supply in the event of significant leaks, allowing homeowners to mitigate potential damage swiftly.
Frontdoor's Chief Revenue Officer, Kathy Collins, expresses enthusiasm about leveraging the company's extensive network of independent contractors to drive on-demand revenue through this partnership. Customers who purchase the Flo device will also receive a complimentary year of Frontdoor Unlimited membership, adding further value to the offering. With over 50 years of experience in the home warranty industry and a customer base exceeding two million members through brands like American Home Shield and 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, Frontdoor reinforces its commitment to innovation and quality service in home repair and maintenance.
In addition to the benefits of the Moen Flo device, this expanded partnership signifies Frontdoor's dedication to enhancing homeowner safety and reducing potential repair costs associated with water damage. The integration of advanced technology into home maintenance solutions aligns with the growing trend of smart home devices that contribute to proactive property management. As Frontdoor continues to adapt and evolve in response to industry needs, this collaboration with Moen positions the company favorably within the competitive landscape of home warranty and repair services.
