The Flood-stop Valve

Protection for your home against burst hoses!

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t wait for a burst water hose to turn your home into a water park.

Over the years we’ve been called out countless times to flooded homes where hoses have burst.

But now you can prevent this from ever happening to you.

How?

Install Flood Stop Valves (FSVs) on all your water hoses.

If you have flexible hoses on your mixer taps or toilet cisterns, installing an FSV is a great idea to protect your home and give you peace of mind.

We’re recommending these to all our customers now (where we couldn’t before because they weren’t 100% reliable but now they are!).

What could happen if your pipes burst?

Unfortunately bust hoses are common and often lead to catastrophic consequences.

Here are a few examples …

1. Extensive Water Damage: Burst water hoses can release hundreds of litres of water in a matter of minutes. This sudden flood can saturate floors, walls, furniture, and valuable possessions, resulting in extensive damage and mould growth.

2. Structural Compromises: Excessive water exposure due to burst hoses can weaken the structural components of your home. Over time, this can lead to compromised integrity, posing safety risks and requiring costly repairs.

3. Electrical Hazards: Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. A burst water hose near electrical outlets or appliances can cause short circuits, electrical fires, or even electric shocks, endangering lives and property.

4. Expensive Repairs: Dealing with the aftermath of burst water hoses can be very expensive. From repairing water-damaged walls, floors, and furniture to addressing structural issues, the costs can quickly add up. Prevention is easily 10 times cheaper than dealing with the aftermath.

Benefits of a Flood Stop Valve

1. Quick Response Time: FSV’s are equipped with sensors that detect leaks and trigger an automatic shut-off, typically within seconds. This rapid response can significantly reduce the amount of water released and minimise the damage to your home.

2. 24/7 Protection: FSV’s work tirelessly, day and night, to safeguard your home against leaks. They provide round-the-clock protection, even when you’re away or asleep, ensuring peace of mind and uninterrupted security.

3. Easy Installation: Installing an FSV is a straightforward process. It’s a small effort for a massive gain in home safety.

Burst Flexible hose

An ingenious device that automatically detects and halts the flow of water when it senses a sudden increase in the flow (aka a leak).

And just like that you’re protected against devastating effects of burst water hoses.

Say goodbye to worrying about water damage and costly repairs.
