Clothes Washer Water Shut-Off Valve Inline 3/4" Valves Control floods from broken washer hoses or leaks from washing machines . Only an automatic water sensor activated water shut off valve can save you from extensive water damage. The Floodstop is a single appliance automatic water shut-off system named by Readers Digest as one of the best 100 new products of 2004. The Flood Stop FS3/4H for washing machines has twin 3/4 inch hose threaded motorized ball valves with brass outlets. This inline version has NO 90° angle. Water damage is controlled because both hot and cold water intakes are shut off when water leaks under your washer. And the loud water alarm lets you know there is a problem. Also works well on home dialysis machines. This new washing machine water shut off model (FS 3/4-H) is designed for homes with downward facing (vertical) hot and cold water hose-bibs. Downward facing hose-bibs are commonly found in older homes, basement settings, or unfinished walls where recessed wall box mounted hose-bibs may not be used. This additional FloodStop model with “Inline” valves provides the ideal valve style for downward facing hose-bibs. Washing machines and washer intake hoses can fail or rupture at any time. - Avoid extensive property damage and expensive repairs.
- Automatically shuts off hot and cold water supplies when leak is detected.
- Homeowner or maintenance person can quickly install.
- Contains extensive damage to floors below.

Protect your home or business from water damage. Washing machine related flooding can happen any time from standard washer hoses or internal failures of valves, drains, switches or pumps. Whether you are home or away, slow leaks or flooding leaks can go undetected for hours or even days. Safeguard your property and personal possessions 24-hours a day with Flood Stop.
Automatically shuts off water to only the washing machine. Sounds an alarm. All other household plumbing fixtures and appliances are unaffected. Unlike expensive "Whole-House" water shut off systems that are expensive require professional installation, these "Point-of-Use" systems are affordable and easily installed.
To install, connect the two Floodstop Valves to the hot and cold water supply lines. Mount control unit to wall. Place sensor(s) on floor. Units are operated by either by 120 vAC adapter (included), Batteries OR BOTH!
NOTE: DO NOT PLACE SENSOR DIRECTLY ON METAL PAN OR DAMP FLOOR. If no water is present and sensor sounds alarm, place paper towel or cloth under sensor to "insulate" against dampness of floor or metal of pan. Once the paper or cloth gets wet, the sensor will activate the shut-off and sound the alarm. Sensor will sound if placed on metal.
