That’sa lot of wasted water, and it’s causing billions of dollars of damage to our homes.What if homeowners had complete transparency to their home water usage and the ability to detect even the slowest and smallest of leaks before they result in flooding, lost valuables, mold, relocation and costly repairs?Meet Flo. * Residential End Uses of Water, Version 2: Executive Report, Water Research Foundation, 2016.
