FloodStop for Washing Machine

Prevent flooding from failed Washing Machines and hoses:
Washing Machines are one of the most damaging appliances within the home. Washing Machine related flooding can happen at any time, from hoses with ruptures or cracked fittings, to internal failures from clamps, valves, pumps, drains and failed switches. Whether at home, at work, or on vacation these flooding events go undetected for hours or even days.

 FS 3/4-H90 (when your hose-bibs are in a recessed wall box)
 FS 3/4-H (when your hose-bibs are against the wall)

FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90) and (FS 3/4-H) kits automatically shuts off the water supply to the Washing Machine and sounds an alarm, leaving all other household fixtures and appliances operational. Powered by AC Adaptor/Transformer or Batteries. Output contacts available, which allow the Controller to connect with Alarm, Home Automation or Auto-Dialer systems if desired. Easily installed in ten minutes.

FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90) Components:
• Motorized Ball Valves (Two Valves, 3/4 Inch Hose Threaded with Spinning Collars) and “90 Degree” Downward Outlet
• 90 Degree Downward Outlet Style Valves (common for recessed wall-boxes with outward facing hose bibs)
• Control Unit (with Battery Backup 4 X C Size)
• Water/Leak Sensor (1.25” X 7.5”)
• AC Power Adaptor (or use 4 X C Batteries as Primary Power Source)
• Output Contact Wires (2)
FloodStop (FS 3/4-H) Components:
• Motorized Ball Valves (Two Valves, 3/4 Inch Hose Threaded with Spinning Collars) and “Inline” Outlet
• Inline Outlet Style Valves (common for downward facing hose bibs)
• Control Unit (with Battery Backup 4 X C Size)
• Water/Leak Sensor (1.25” X 7.5”)
• AC Power Adaptor (or use 4 X C Batteries as Primary Power Source)
• Output Contact Wires (2)
How FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90 and FS 3/4-H) Works:
• Each FloodStop valve has female threaded spinning collars that screw onto the hot and cold water hose bibs
• Screw hoses onto the outlet end of each FloodStop valve
• Water/leak sensor is placed on the floor behind Washing Machine
• Valves stay open until water loss is detected
• Water on sensor immediately closes FloodStop valves and sounds alarm
• Valves stay closed until problem is attended to and system is reset

Without FloodStop, Flooding Will Continue:
Unexpected appliance failures cause flooding and water damage, which will continue unabated until the problem is discovered and the water supply is manually shut off.		 With Flood Stop, Property Damage is Avoided:
Water loss from unexpected appliance failures and hose ruptures are detected by FloodStop's water/leak sensor, and the water supply is automatically and immediately shut off.
