Quick Fix For Washing Machine Hose Floods!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Before installing the system on a washing machine, the host conducts a preliminary test of the FloodStop's functionality using a garden hose bib. He connects one solenoid valve to the hose bib, with the water sensor placed on the ground nearby. He turns on the water and then pours water onto the sensor to simulate a leak. Upon contact with water, the sensor triggers an audible alarm from the control unit, and the solenoid valve immediately shuts off the water flow, demonstrating the system's rapid response.

Goal: Verify the FloodStop system's leak detection and shut-off capabilities

Tools and materials

okay so before I go and hook this up I just wanted to show you guys I kind of just rigged it up to my garden hose here you can only hook up one solenoid valve but you can see that the green light over there is on and we're gonna go ahead and give this a test okay so we've got that set up this is our this is our water sensor right here we're gonna go ahead and see what it takes to make this thing go off so hopefully when it's all said and done this test is gonna accomplish a couple of things we're gonna get the water to shut off and we're gonna actually hear an alarm let's turn the water on right away and shut it down so I have to say I got my front yard testing this and my couple my neighbor's but not too happy about the sound of that thing going off so they're like what the heck it's good we're gonna go actually hook it up to the washing machine and I'll show ya just how quick of an install it is and right on the box
