Roost® Announces Addition of CFM Insurance to its Home Telematics Program

Posted by Stacy Edgar on 05, Feb 2019

Roost_CFM-01SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roost, a leader in Home Telematics for property insurance carriers, today announced that CFM Insurance has joined Roost’s Home Telematics Program (HTP). In partnership with Willis Towers Watson, and visionary insurance carriers State Auto Insurance, Country Financial and Encompass Insurance, the HTP is applying advanced analytics to gain impactful insights into the effect of home installation of Roost smart sensors on fire and water loss mitigation as well as customer engagement.

“We are thrilled to have CFM Insurance, join the HTP and enjoy the shared benefits of this unique home telematics industry group,” said Roel Peeters, co-founder and CEO of Roost. “By sharing insights and data, the HTP will develop best practices for the deployment of smart sensors in the home, deliver valuable insights into mitigating loss costs and enabling meaningful engagement between insurers and their valued customers.”

As a member of the HTP, CFM Insurance will deploy various kits of Roost Smart Sensors, including the Roost Smart 9V Battery (for smoke alarms) and the Roost Smart Water Leak and Freeze Detector to a set of their policyholders. These innovative devices deliver notifications to customers’ smartphones when a suspected water leak or fire event occurs.

“To maintain our status as one of the best property and casualty insurers in the State of Missouri, we are continuously focused on how to improve the insurance experience,” commented Jake Black, President and CEO of CFM Insurance. “The partnership with Roost allows us to offer a range of smart home sensors to our members and better understand their loss-mitigating impact.”

The award-winning Roost Smart 9V Battery is a simple retrofit solution that transforms existing smoke alarms into smart alarms. If the alarm sounds and no one is home, a smartphone notification is delivered. The Roost Smart Water Leak and Freeze Detector is designed to sense water leaks as well as humidity and freezing temperature situations. Each detector can be easily located in places around the home most prone to water leaks such as sinks, hot water heaters, toilets and various appliances. It then delivers smartphone alerts via the CFM Insurance branded app to help minimize water damage and loss. These Wi-Fi enabled smart sensors don’t require a hub and set up in less than five minutes.

Roost’s Home Telematics solutions are changing the way insurers engage with their policyholders, mitigate fire & water claims and drive new business growth.
