# Flo

> Flo is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 1.4k installs sharing analytics and needs the vendor's cloud.

Flo is a built-in integration that connects Flo water monitoring devices to Home Assistant through the vendor's cloud. It adds sensors for water flow rate, water pressure, water temperature, today's water usage and the current system mode. Binary sensors report pending system alerts and whether water is detected. A switch controls the shutoff valve. Actions can request a health test and set the location to away, home or sleep mode. Setup is done in the user interface with a username and password.
