Warning Cycle Feature
In the
Home
Scene, all Leak Defense Systems have a
built in warning mechanism that will let you know that you
have exceeded the
Time to Alarm
setting and water is
about to be turned off.
When you reach the
Home Time to Alarm
, the system
turns the water off for 30 seconds and then re-opens the
valve to check to see if water is still flowing. If the water
has stopped flowing it resets the alarm clock. If water is
still flowing it alarms and shuts off the water.
So, if you are running water and notice that the water
flow is significantly reduced or stopped, you will need to
turn off the running water for about 60 sec. This will give
the system time to turn the water back on and to confirm
there is no water flow, and that there is not a leak and will
return to normal, resetting the Time to Alarm clock. If the
system still sees flow, it will assume it is a leak and will turn
off water completely. You can go to the control panel at
any time and push the Reset or Clear Alarm button
indicating that the flow is normal and reset the system.
The
Warning Cycle
is not available in the
Away
Scene, as the system assumes no one is home and
shuts the water off immediately once the time to alarm is
reached. This feature is only available in the Leak Defense
System.
The Alarm Started Sounding and I
am Home. What Should I Do?
If the water flow is due to a routine activity that
normally occurs within your household:
You may want to adjust the Leak Defense System
settings. If so, you will first select
Clear Alarm
and
then select
Turn Water On
. You can then:
1) Increase the
Time to Alarm
setting or
2) Increase the
Trip Rate
setting
If you are filling your swimming pool, watering your
lawn for an extended time, or running water for
some other reason, do the following after selecting
Clear Alarm and Turn Water On:
Tap the
Scene
button and select
Standby
. Tap the
Time
icon and enter the amount of time desired for the
system to remain in
Standby
in minutes (Max is 48 hours
or 2880 minutes). Tap the top-right box to confirm the
time.
If there is nothing unexpected happening:
If you don’t believe your water settings are set too
conservatively, you will want to check for a leak.
