If you require any further assistance operating the Waterguard Puddle or if the Puddle is not
functioning correctly, please call our friendly customer service team on 01226 244200.
Alarm Mode….
When a water leak has been detected the Puddle will enter alarm mode which is indicated by a
repeated short red flash and Beep. The number of flashes and beeps indicates the water sensing
channel where a leak has been detected. Multiple alarmed channels will flash and beep sequentially.
Press the black button once:
This will silence the alarm, repeating every 30 seconds, but flashing
will continue. Check for leaks and take any appropriate action required.
Press the black button once again:
Red flashing will stop, and all alarms will be cleared. The
Puddle will then flash yellow for 4 minutes whilst the water sensing devices are checked to ensure
that the leak has stopped, and the Puddle unit enters tracking mode, calibrating each water sensing
channel. Once complete the Puddle unit will flash green and be ready for action.
Power Loss….
In the event of any power loss there is no set up or other actions required, this is a maintenance free
system. Once power is restored, power to the Puddle is indicated by a single white flash and beep.
The unit will then flash yellow as it enters tracking mode for approximately 10 seconds followed by a
green flash, the Puddle will then be ready for action again.
Test Mode….
To test the operation of the Puddle, rapidly press the button 5 times. This will simulate an alarm on all
channels in use. Example, a Puddle which is using 2 of the channels will flash red and beep once
then flash red and beep twice to indicate that channels one and two are installed and operating
correctly.
False Alarms & Alarm Failures….
The location of each water sensing device is critical to the effective operation of this system. If any
device is located within areas likely to suffer from normal dampness and condensation, false alarms
may occur, and the device will need to be relocated to a usually dry area such as beneath the bath
panel or plant room, depending on the application.
Alarm failures may occur if any water sensing cable or tape is positioned too close to mains cables. It
is critical to ensure that any water sensing cable or tape is positioned at least 20cm away from any
mains cables.
