Water Leak Detector & Stainless Steel Motorized Ball Valve 1" NPT

Stainless Steel Automatic Water Leak Detector & Shut-Off Valve, 1" NPT

Protect your home from costly water damage with this automatic leak detector and heavy-duty stainless steel motorized ball valve. If water is detected on the floor, the valve automatically shuts off the incoming water supply and sounds an alarm.

Why Add an Automatic Leak Shut-Off Valve?

Water treatment systems often operate unattended for years. A loose fitting, cracked filter housing, drain line issue, failed seal, or damaged plumbing connection can leak long before anyone notices. This automatic water leak detector helps reduce the risk of water damage by shutting off the water supply as soon as moisture reaches the sensor.

For indoor installations, this is inexpensive protection compared with the cost of repairing damaged flooring, drywall, cabinets, baseboards, or stored items.

Great For Protecting:

• Water softeners
• Iron filters
• Sulfur odor filters
• Backwashing sediment filters
• Whole house carbon filters
• Acid neutralizers
• Reverse osmosis systems
• UV water treatment systems
• Washing machines
• Other indoor water-using equipment

How It Works

1. Install the stainless steel ball valve on the inlet line feeding the system or appliance you want to protect.
2. Place the leak sensor on the floor near the water treatment system.
3. If water reaches the sensor, the valve automatically closes and the alarm sounds.
4. After the leak is fixed and water is removed, reset the controller.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I install this with a water softener or iron filter?

Water softeners and backwashing filters are often installed in garages, closets, utility rooms, and other areas where a leak may go unnoticed. This automatic shut-off valve helps stop water flow if a leak develops.

Does this shut off the water automatically?

Yes. When the sensor detects water on the floor, the motorized stainless steel ball valve automatically closes and an alarm sounds.

What type of batteries does it use?

The controller uses standard AA batteries.

How often should the batteries be replaced?

Replace the AA batteries once per year for reliable operation.

Does it have a low-battery warning?

Yes. The controller sounds an alarm if the batteries become low. If the low-battery warning is ignored, the valve is designed to close approximately eight hours later for added protection.

Will this work during a power outage?

Yes. Since the unit is battery powered, it does not rely on household electrical power.

Where should the valve be installed?

Install the valve on the inlet water line feeding the water softener, filter, appliance, or system you want to protect.

Where should the sensor be placed?

Place the sensor on the floor near the equipment, preferably where water would collect first if a leak occurred.

Can this be used on a main water line?

Yes, if the plumbing size and application are appropriate. However, most customers install it on the inlet line feeding the specific water treatment system they want to protect.
