volume of water is exceeded, the controller will emit an audible and visual alarm alerting that a leak has been detected. Where installed the valve
can be set to automatically shut off the water supply.
There are two guard levels, low guard for when the property is occupied and high guard for when it is unoccupied. To familiarise yourself with your
installed Waterguard System please read this user guide in full. If you have any further questions, please contact the office.

12 months up to 5 years.
Maintenance….
This system requires minimal maintenance. In hard water areas it is recommended that any connected valves are dismantled and cleaned with
limescale remover every 12 months as build up can cause the valve operation to fail.
