The Streamlabs Control Valve Protects Your Home
What’s your worst nightmare as a homeowner? Other than finding out your house has burned to the ground, it’s likely coming home to find your floor covered in two inches of water from a water leak. No matter how old your house is, eventually the plumbing will fail. When this happens, you need to catch the leak as soon as possible. Even a small undetected leak can cause a lot of damage to your home or business. This is why we recommend installing the Streamlabs Control Valve.
Did you know that water damage caused by plumbing failures costs approximately $14 billion every year? If you’re lucky, your insurance company will pay for the damage, but your rates will go up the next year if you lose your claims free discount. If your insurance company doesn’t pay for the damage, you can be on the hook for thousands of dollars. Something else to consider is that leaks waste water, and this will increase your water bills.
How can you prevent this from happening? Luckily, you can have a whole home water monitoring system installed, which monitors water usage and detects and stops leaks before they damage your home.
The StreamLabs® Control valve provides real-time water monitoring, offers smart leak detection, and automatically shuts off the water. This system will protect your entire home from costly water damage, and the control can be accessed with a free app on your smartphone or device from wherever you are.
Product Features
The device offers 24/7 leak protection. Not only can it monitor slow or major leaks, but it also keeps an eye on the water pressure, humidity, room and water temperature. The control will even let you know when the water usage is abnormal and automatically turn off the water! Keep in mind if you receive a leak alert unless you are a plumber, you should call a professional to fix it.
Every month, the device performs an automatic valve check to ensure it is operating properly. The product has a full 2-year warranty. With the drip detect feature, you can choose from daily, weekly or monthly tests.
The app sends you a variety of alerts. Alerts include leaks, freezing, water pressure, water temperature, and humidity. It is compatible with most iPhone, iPad, Android phones or tablets.
Why Is It Better Than Other Systems?
Other options like water leak alarms only help if a leak happens when you’re home and you hear them. If you’re out and it’s a big leak, a lot of damage can happen before you can turn off the water and call a plumber. Also, if the alarm batteries die, they won’t work.
Internet-connected leak alarms send you wireless alerts, but this won’t help if you can’t get home or have someone turn off the water quickly. Regularly checking your plumbing is helpful, but you may not see hidden leaks.
Unlike other whole home monitoring systems, this system has a brass valve body. Also, the system can be installed with SharkBite fittings. What are SharkBite fittings? They are brass quick-connect plumbing fittings which are pushed onto pipes. They are quick and easy to install, create a water-tight seal, and don’t require soldering.
Another benefit is that, unlike other products, the app displays water pressure, flow, room and water temperature and usage on one screen.
Installing the StreamLabs® control valve will protect your home from water leaks or freezing, and give you peace of mind while you are away.
