Sure Stop

Sure Stop water switches. Logo

Have ever had to find a traditional brass stop tap in a property, let alone turn it off to isolate the water supply in a hurry? Then you know the problem!

The valve is probably located in some out of the way position under the sink, at arms length soOld water stop valves are oftem problematic. Photo that you can only just reach it with your fingers. Meanwhile the leak you want to stop continues to flow. This situation is bad enough if you are able bodied but if you are elderly, infirm, disabled or just not strong enough, you will have to seek outside help.

Unless they are frequently used (which in itself causes problems), brass stop taps can easily scale up, seize and fail - especially in hard water areas. Plumbers have known about these problems for years, and householders only become aware of this fact when there is a leak that cannot be quickly stopped and an insurance claim is rapidly increasing. Let's face it; the design from the 19th century is well past its sell by date.

By using proven servo valve technology SureStop uses the pressure of the water supply to switch the valve on & off via a large rocker switch.

No electricity, batteries or additional power supplies are required. Best of all, the remote version as standard can have the rocker switch mounted up to 4 metres away from the valve fitted into the incoming water supply. As well as the remote switch, there is a direct version for where access to the pipework is unrestricted; both options being available with 15mm and 22mm connectors.

SureStop can be used whenever you want - when you go on holiday - when you go out- when you go to bed - or just for that emergency. You can't use the SureStop too often; it's been tested for 200,000 operations.

Using SureStop on a frequent basis can prevent catastrophic damage through burst pipes A pipe can leak 20 l/m - 1200 l/hr - 28800 l/day. That's nearly 30 tonnes of water, and at today's costs on a meter; you would pay £60; just for the wasted water!

Above all, it is about peace of mind - to be able to switch the water off easily in any situation, at the flick of a switch.
