Yes. Phyn Plus notifies you when it detects unusual water activity that may indicate a leak.
Phyn continuously monitors your home’s water pressure and flow patterns. When activity falls outside your normal usage patterns, Phyn generates an alert so you can quickly determine whether it’s a leak or expected water use.
How leak alerts work
During the initial learning period (typically about three weeks), Phyn may send more alerts as it learns what is normal for your home. Over time, Phyn builds a personalized model of your water usage to reduce false alerts and improve accuracy.
When unusual water activity is detected:
Phyn analyzes the time, duration, and flow rate of the event
The system determines whether the activity may be a leak
An alert is sent through your selected notification channels
What you’ll see in the app
When an alert is triggered, you’ll see:
A notification via push, SMS, and/or email (based on your settings)
An alert card in the Phyn app describing the unusual water activity
A severity level indicating the potential risk
You’ll be guided through a short set of questions to help identify whether the activity is normal or a leak.
If the activity is a leak
The app may provide preliminary troubleshooting steps
You’ll have the option to contact a plumber directly
