INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR LEAK STOP FLOW INTERRUPTOR 

 

 

Waterite now includes a non-electric leak detection device, with all residential RO systems. This 

LEAK STOP

 is easy to install and will automatically shut off the incoming water being supplied to 

the RO unit if any water comes in contact with it. 

 

Simply mount on the floor of the cabinet directly under your RO unit is installed.  If a leak occurs on 

the RO system, the sensor is triggered and an internal valve closes, preventing water from running 

to the RO system and causing water damage. 

 

The 

LEAK STOP

 is supplied with a mounting bracket, two-sided tape to make installation easy. 

 

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

(see Figure 1 below) 

For new system installations, installing the 

LEAK STOP

 should be your 

LAST

 step. 

 

1. Turn inlet water valve off. 

2. Using the 2-sided tape provided, place the 

LEAK STOP

 in a convenient location under the RO 

system, in a place most likely to get wet in the event of a system leak. Make sure the area is 

COMPLETELY free of moisture.  Remove the tape film and push down firmly so that tape adheres 

to surface. (Fig. 1 & 2) 

3. Remove the red locking rings from the ports on the 

LEAK STOP

 device. (Fig. 3) 

4. If desired you can also fasten the bracket directly to the base of the cabinet by using the screw 

holes provided on the base of the 

LEAK STOP

. (Fig. 1) 

5. From the shut off valve on the main feed line, attach the ¼” (10mm) tube to the inlet side (IN) of 

the 

LEAK STOP

 device. (Fig 3) 

6. From the outlet (OUT) side of the 

LEAK STOP

, connect a ¼” (10mm) tube to the cold-water inlet 

of the RO system.  (Fig. 4) 

7. Make sure all connections are tight and that the tube has been inserted all the way into the 

LEAK 

STOP

 fittings. Secure the tubing with the locking rings supplied with the 

LEAK STOP

. (Fig. 4) 

8. 

Turn inlet water valve on. Make sure there are no leaks around the fittings

.

WARNING!

 

The LEAK STOP should be wrapped with a dry towel or cloth before changing 

cartridges. This will help avoid it coming into contact with water that may be 

accidentally spilled in the process.  

Should the 

LEAK STOP 

device come into 

contact with any water, the device will be triggered and the tablet will need changing 

(LEAK STOP refill tablet part number HDJMF01T).
