Water Shut Off

Full House Water Shut Off And Alarm

Picture this.  You come home from work or a weekend away and you are greeted at the door by water pouring out your door.  This is not the way

anybody would like to be greeted.  The potential damage is devastating and insurance companies are starting to exclude the coverage from your home owners insurance policies.

The average house has at least 15 places that could spring a leak.  It is not a matter of if, but when a leak will occur.  Water Heaters, Toilets, Faucets are just a few example that can cause a lot of damage if they start leaking or produce a large amount of water pouring out.  Another cause is frozen pipes that occur when you are home and when you are not.

The good news is that a flooded house does not have to happen.  There is a product that help prevent such a problem.  It is called a FloodStop .  The one pictured here is for a full house situation that would be hooked up to the water main.  There are also FloodStops for water heaters, washing machines, ice makers and sinks.

The way they work is they sense water leaking and shut down the water flow.  It can then call you via a phone dialer or sound an alarm.  This is a great insurance policy that you only have to pay once for.
