3 General Information Watts is pleased to introduce its new line of FloodSafe Auto- Shutoff onnectors. The FloodSafe s patented design protects against catastrophic water damage caused by burst, broken or ruptured water supply hoses and fittings. FloodSafe connectors include a standard braided stainless steel flexible hose and a FloodSafe shutoff device located on the inlet. Problem In recent years, losses due to water and mold damage to residential and commercial buildings have been steadily on the rise. Water supply hoses are vulnerable to a number of potential problems. Over time, hoses can become brittle and burst. Poorly manufactured hoses can break under normal pressure conditions and hoses used in public venues are highly vulnerable to tampering by vandals. All of these conditions can lead to a flood of problems for homeowners, property managers and maintenance personnel. Water Damage is not a pretty picture! Solution Watts FloodSafe auto-shutoff connectors protect against catastrophic water damage by automatically shutting off the water supply to plumbing fixtures/appliances if excess water flow is sensed. Water flow through the FloodSafe device is limited to a factory preset flow rate, any flow over the preset rate will automatically shutoff all flow of water through the device. FloodSafe Shutoff Device Fact A Burst Washing Machine Hose can Discharge 500 Gallons of Water in One Hour. Braided Stainless Steel onnector

4 General Information Features Only economical and secure safeguard against catastrophic water damage available on the market Patented design No mechanical moving parts during normal operation, ensuring years of maintenance free operation Does not require electricity, batteries or any other source of power Maintenance free, should debris get caught in the FloodSafe s strainer, simply remove the connector, tap the in the palm of your hand to dislodge debris, then reconnect NSF and IAPMO Listed Installs between the stop valve and the fixture/appliance with the FloodSafe device located at the stop valve Faucet Inlet FloodSafe onnector FloodSafe Device Shutoff Valve Acts as a water conservation device, by shutting off the water to the faucet when the mandated flow restrictor is removed Available for faucets, toilets, ice makers, dishwashers and washing machines How it Works FloodSafe is actuated by flow of cold or hot water in excess of the design flow rate indicated on the label. Once a downstream flow of water in excess of the flow required by any standard fixture/appliance is detected, FloodSafe assumes a burst and the flow of water is shutoff. FloodSafe remains in the closed position until it is reset. FloodSafe Shutoff Device Resetting FloodSafe onnectors Resetting FloodSafe connectors if water flow has been stopped is easy. Simply follow the steps below: To Install: Braided Stainless Steel onnector. Turn off water supply at shutoff valve. 2. Remove old supply connector.. Install the connection with the FloodSafe device at the shutoff valve. Install the other of the connector to the faucet inlet. aution: Hand tighten the nuts plus 4" turn with a wrench. Do not overtighten. 4. Slowly turn on water at the shutoff valve to full open position. 5. heck for leaks. Important: Removing the faucet aerator or flow restrictor may cause the FloodSafe to activate shutting off flow to the faucet. heck for damage or rupture to the hose. Do not reactivate if a leak is evident. To reactivate flow of water to the fixture:. lose the shutoff valve to shut the water supply to the FloodSafe connector 2. Disconnect the FloodSafe at the shutoff valve. This will automatically reset the FloodSafe device.. Reconnect the FloodSafe according to installation instructions and turn on water supply to full open position. heck for leaks. 2
