Eddy vs FloLogic: A trained operator on call 24/7, not only a shutoff valve.

Both watch flow, offer point-of-leak sensors and can shut off the water. FloLogic alerts you by app and text. At Eddy, an operator at the 24/7 monitoring center calls your team within minutes of an alert.

Why choose Eddy over FloLogic

Strong shutoff hardware is a building block, not the whole program.

  • A network of its own

    FloLogic connects over Thread wireless to a gateway on your router. Eddy runs its own LoRaWAN network on cellular or Ethernet gateways, built to reach concrete cores and mechanical rooms.

  • A staffed 24/7 monitoring center

    FloLogic sends app and text alerts, and its control panel can connect to a home security central station. At Eddy, an operator calls your team within minutes of an alert and stays on until the water is off.

  • Shutoff sized for the whole building

    FloLogic's valve tops out at 2 inches, in the 200 GPM range. Eddy IQ shuts off smaller lines and Eddy Link drives motorized valves up to 18 inches on mains and risers.

Detect, control and respond, in one managed program.

Sensors sit where leaks start and meters watch the flow. Valves close on the rules you set, and a 24/7 monitoring center follows each alert until your team has eyes on it.

What happens in a leak, step by step
  1. A washing machine supply hose bursts in a suite upstairs.
  2. Eddy H2O under the washer detects water and sends the alert over LoRaWAN.
  3. The building's gateway relays it. Your team and the 24/7 monitoring center are alerted at the same time.
  4. A shutoff rule closes the suite's Eddy IQ valve. The water stops at the source.
  5. Within minutes, an operator calls your on-site team through the escalation protocol.

Automatic shutoff is configured per building. Some sites use operator-coordinated isolation instead.

Eddy vs FloLogic: common questions

Does FloLogic have a 24/7 monitoring center?

Not its own. FloLogic sends app and text alerts, and its control panel can connect to a home security central station. At Eddy, an operator at the 24/7 monitoring center calls your team within minutes of an alert.

What happens when an alert fires at 2 AM?

Where a valve is set to close on a leak, it shuts off the water first. Then an Eddy operator calls your on-call contact within minutes and stays on until it's handled. FloLogic's valve can close on its own too, then app and text alerts go to your phone.

Does Eddy need building Wi-Fi?

No. Eddy runs its own LoRaWAN network on cellular or Ethernet gateways, so it never relies on building Wi-Fi. LoRaWAN reaches through concrete cores and mechanical rooms, with about one gateway every two floors in a tower. FloLogic's devices use Thread wireless to a gateway plugged into your router.

Can Eddy help with our insurance?

Yes. Every confirmed event closes with a Leak Incident Report, documentation your carrier can use at renewal. Monitored buildings have documented premium savings of up to 20%, with deductible reductions of up to 80% documented at individual properties, though incentives vary by carrier and building.

Can Eddy protect a building during construction?

Yes. Eddy protects buildings from fit-out into occupancy. Sensors watch temporary risers and mechanical rooms, and valves can close a line after hours. The same hardware and monitoring center carry on after handover. PCL Construction builds with Eddy across Canada and the US.

How much does FloLogic cost compared to Eddy?

It depends on the building's size, the level of protection and the valves it needs. FloLogic lists complete systems at US$2,190 to US$3,340 by valve size, with no monthly app fees, per its website. Eddy prices the hardware, the 24/7 monitoring center, project management and incident reporting as one managed service. Share their quote and we'll show what Eddy would add.

Is FloLogic a better fit for some buildings?

Yes. For homes and light commercial properties on one supply line up to 2 inches, FloLogic's flow-sensing valve is a strong choice. Eddy is built for larger buildings, with valves up to 18 inches and operators on call 24/7.
