AS A HOMEOWNER, YOU'VE GOT TO PLAY IT SAFE.

There’s simply too much on the line to put at risk by neglecting to take care of your plumbing or HVAC systems. One of the most potentially dangerous problems that could arise with your plumbing system is free-flowing water. The entire purpose of a plumbing system is to contain and transport water so that you can use it effectively and efficiently throughout the house. But sometimes that can be difficult to do, particularly when something goes wrong that you could not have anticipated.

For that reason, you may want to consider upgrading your plumbing system with an automatic shut-off valve. This type of device is installed directly at the main water line and communicates with various sensors located at strategic areas of the home, such as the bathroom, or near the water heater. As soon as excessive water is detected, it shuts down the entire water supply, which means that the water available to the leak is limited. It’s the best way to avoid catastrophic water damage. As a leading plumbing service provider in the area, we offer exceptional automatic shut-off valve services throughout the Canton, MI. and surrounding areas, including installation as well we repair and replacement.

HOW DOES AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF VALVES WORK?

As its name suggests, the entire purpose of an automatic shut–off valve is to remove the threat of leaking water without you have to lift a finger. That means that this system will activate whether you’re upstairs sleeping or in the middle of a two–week vacation. There are several different makes and models on the market today, and our plumbers will work with you to find one that matches your needs and your budget.

We first install a valve where your main water line enters the home. Therefore, the valve will be able to control all of the hot and cold water in the home, rather than just a single tap. We also install several different sensors at certain “at risk” areas of the home. What are these? Anywhere a leak could result in the accumulation of a large amount of water. In many cases, we recommend the basement area near your water heater and the laundry room, but you may also want one in your bathroom or near your dishwasher in the kitchen. When these sensors detect an unusual amount of water, the system kicks in and shuts down the entire system.


BENEFITS OF AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF VALVES

If not already obvious, it may be worth talking about the many benefits of automatic water shut–off valves. As a general rule, every homeowner and family member should have a sense of where the main water valve is. This information is invaluable and you can prevent the accumulation of water by turning off the entire supply should one particular fixture get out of control.

But the benefit of an automatic shut–off valve is that you don’t have to be there to take care of it. There will be times when you have a plumbing problem and you can’t address it yourself, whether because you’re at work, travelling, out with friends or family, or sound asleep. Serious water leaks not only increase your utility bill, but may result in serious damage to the structure of your home as well as your cherished belongings.
