FloodStop Washing Machine Auto Shut Off

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.

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 FloodStop, 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.

FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90) automatically shuts off the water supply to the Washing Machine and sounds an alarm, leaving all other household fixtures and appliances operational. Easily installed in ten minutes.

FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90) Components:
• Motorized Ball Valves (Two valves, 3/4 inch Hose Threaded with union)
• Control Unit (use Velcro or Screws to mount, included)
• Water/Leak Sensor (1.25” X 7.5”)
• AC Power Adaptor

How FloodStop (FS 3/4-H90) Works:
• Each FloodStop valve is screwed onto the hot and cold water hose bibs
• 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

New Next Generation Features:

• Controller has Battery Port for 4 AA batteries, which will serve as the Primary Power Source if a nearby electrical outlet is not available.  When using the AC wall adapter/transformer the same batteries serve as a back-up power source if an electrical power interruption/outage takes place. 
• Controller will have 1 Output for connection to Alarm or Home Automation system if desired. This feature can be used to automatically alert the property owner if the FloodStop was activated.
