Water Heater Flood Protection Shut Off Valve Watts Model Number 3/4 WDS-SP-R Your water heater is one of the hardest working appliances in your home. At the same time it is one of the most ignored due to it's location. In the event it develops a leak it can cause damage which is very expensive to repair. When it starts to leak the tank continues to fill with cold water to replace the hot water that is being lost. The gas valve opens to try to heat all the cold water now entering the tank. Needless to say you are now paying for both water and gas and the result is damage to your home. We see many instances where the homeowner must replace drywall and flooring at the very least. In extreme cases the furnace or boiler is also damaged. Now some will say why buy this valve when we can simply initiate an insurance claim to pay for the damages? We say once you have dealt with the insurance company, contractors and lost time to rectify the damage you will probably wish you had avoided the problem entirely. This valve will detect a leak and immediately shut down both the feed water and the gas going to your tank. At worst you will have one tank full of water to deal with.
