Limitations of the System
While this is an advanced design automatic water shut-off system, it does not off er
guaranteed protection against sudden or accidental discharge of water from a plumbing
system. Any automatic water shut-off system, whether commercial or residential, is
subject to compromise or failure to warn or activate for a variety of reasons. For example:
•
Water intrusion from sources external to the plumbing supply system such as; rain,
hurricane, storm water, sewer back-up, swimming pools, spas, thawing snow and
ice, ice dams, HVAC condensation, freezer defrosting, etc.
•
Water shut-off valves, water intrusion detectors and sensors, and many other sensing
devices will not work without power. Battery operated devices will not work without
batteries, with dead or insuffi ciently charged batteries, or if the batteries are not
installed properly. Devices powered solely by AC power will not function properly if
their AC power supply is interrupted, however briefl y, or cut off for any reason.
•
Sudden and accidental water leaks from plumbing systems can occur at anytime
and at any point in the supply line system. Leaks that occur in areas not immediately
monitored by or in very close proximity to an active water leak sensor may not be
quickly detected or may not be detected at all by the leak detection system.
•
This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even
though this equipment is tested at the factory prior to shipment and designed to
last as long as 10 years when properly maintained, the electronic components could
fail at any time.
•
As with other electrical devices, power surges or spikes can cause circuitry to
malfunction or fail. Proper surge protection is necessary to avoid potential damage
to the electronics of this system.
•
The automatic valve is designed to provide positive shut-off of the plumbing water
supply when connected to live AC power. However if the valve becomes corroded
or blocked due to normal sediment or other internal water line material build-up, the
valve may not function properly when needed.
The most common reason an automatic water shut-off system fails to perform when
needed is due to inadequate maintenance. DynaQuip Controls recommends this
system be tested monthly to make sure the automatic valve and both sensors are
working properly.
Installing an automatic water shut-off system may qualify a homeowner for lower
insurance premiums or a one-time credit. An automatic water shut-off system is not a
substitute for adequate insurance or proper home maintenance. Homeowners, property
owners, and renters should be proactive in protecting their property from sudden and
accidental water loss and continue to adequately insure their property against common
forms of damage.
