Other systems are similar to FloLogic in that they use flow sensing technology to detect leaks, but they offer less comprehensive protection because they rely on water meter technology to see real time flow. These metering devices are helpful for those homeowners who want to monitor their daily water volume use, but water meters only begin to detect real time flow, and therefore leaks, around a pint-per-minute, up to a quart-per-minute range. A pint-per-minute leak in one day will spill 180 gallons of water. FloLogic’s EverWatch™ leak sensing technology can see leaks in real time starting a ½ ounces per-minute (about a tablespoon). Your municipality may already use an advanced water meter infrastructure (AMI) that allows you to log in and see your daily water use for free. FloLogic also differs from cheap competitors in that it’s a cast bronze, US-made valve available in multiple sizes, is proven for more than a decade in the field and comes with a standard battery backup and 5-year warranty.

Any licensed plumber will have the skillset to install the FloLogic valve. A professional is recommended since the pipe must be cut to add the valve. The Installation and Setup Instructions provide a detailed installation guide. Call us Toll free (877 FloLogic) to ask if we have a Preferred Installer in your area.

The FloLogic System comes in threesizes: a 1” valve, allowing a flow capacity up to 50 gallons-per-minute (GPM) and a 1 ½” valve, allowing a flow exceeding 100 GPM and a 2″ valve, with a flow capacity in the 200 GPM range. To determine your pipe size, you can measure the incoming water line’s direct diameter at the end of the pipe. You can also get pipe size by measuring circumference using a flexible tape and dividing the outside circumference by 3.14. For common ¾” water service pipes, simply use the 1” valve.

Yes. As long as your software version is 3.80 or higher, you can add the CONNECT WiFi module to your device to add the app control. All 3.5 series models (indicated by a white actuator box on top of the valve/Systems sold since 2014) are compatible. To confirm the software version, go to your System control panel and press and hold the UP arrow until the display goes blank. The panel will restart and display the following sequence: FLOLOGIC; C.VER 3.XX; V.VER 3.XX; SYSCHK; HOME. The two-digit C.VER and V.VER numbers reflect your software version. If you miss the C.VER or V.VER numbers, you can repeat the process.

FloLogic provides the most comprehensive full-time leak protection against leaks of virtually all sizes throughout a plumbing supply among all technologies currently on the market. Low-cost, plastic leak detectors that use metering technology are unable to detect leaks in real time below a flow rate of a pint to quart of water per minute. A quart-per-minute leak will spew up to 360 gallons of water in one day. Low-cost point-of-leak sensors only flag water that accumulates at remote sensors. Multiple sensors are required to be placed throughout a property (many of which will be visible). And these sensors will miss leaks that occur behind a wall, above a ceiling or beneath a floor. Many sensor products do not have automatic shutoff valves to stop a leak.  FloLogic will identify leaks both small (beginning at 0.5 ounces-per-minute) and big, 24/7,and operates out of sight and mind with your water fully flowing unless a leak is detected. FloLogic may cost more than other leak detection technologies, but our customers and installers find it’s well worth investing a little more to get the most comprehensive full-time protection against damaging and wasteful leaks. Home insurers agree, as FloLogic will always qualify policy holders for any available credits and discounts whereas other systems may not. FloLogic also has a best-in-class five year standard warranty.

The FloLogic System is easily integrated with all security systems in the market that accept dry-contact relay inputs and outputs. This is a standard feature. See page 16 of the Installation and Setup Instructions.
