Watts A2C-SC 1/2, Hose

The Watts A2C-SC 1/2 is a IntelliFlow automatic washing machine shutoff valve with Hose Thread (GHT) outlets. It features a epdm seat. Rated to 150 psi and up to 180°F.

The A2C-SC IntelliFlow® washing machine smart water shutoff senses the washing machines current flow and immediately shuts off the water supply if an inlet hose bursts. Simply scan the QR code on the IntelliFlow, follow the prompts to register it online, and connect it to the local Wi-Fi network to enable real-time text and email alerts. The IntelliFlow valve only allows water to flow into the washing machine when electric current indicates the machine is in use and automatically closes water inlet valves when a water leak is detected. Maximum pressure setting is 150 psi and maximum washing machine current rating is 15A. A burst washing machine hose can discharge 500 gallons of water in one hour, causing catastrophic damage to homes and businesses.

Features

• Automated flood detection with real-time text and email alerts
• Continuously monitors for the presence of water behind a washing machine
• Floor-mounted water leak sensor that automatically shuts off water supply to washer
• Optional A-2 IntelliTimer allows use with 220 VAC powered washing machine or combination washer/dryer

Common Questions

What outlet does this have?

A 3/4 in male garden-hose thread (MGHT) outlet — it takes a standard garden hose or washing machine hose directly, with no adapter.

Does this actually shut the water off by itself if a hose bursts?

Yes. The IntelliFlow senses the washing machine's electrical current and only opens the hot and cold inlets while the machine is actually running — so the hoses sit unpressurised the rest of the week, which is when most of them burst. Its floor-mounted leak sensor closes both inlets on contact with water. Rated to 150 psi. A burst hose can put 500 gallons an hour onto the floor; this is the part that stops that.
