@_______DR_______ 4 года назад

A version with compression fittings on would be nice; and when it comes to having a full flow leak, 2 minutes is a looooong time. I like the traditional surestop, having a simple switch makes people get into the habit of turning the water off before they leave the house for an extended period of time.

@normanboyes4983 4 года назад

@ChristianBHough 4 года назад

Hey James, I like these Surestops. Have only installed the basic model once before. When Surestop upgrades the firmware to make it compatible with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple Homekit and the like, you will be able to have the Honeywell notification or email, trigger one of those services which would automatically turn off your stopcock. I think Surestop needs to get working on that asap. They will sell loads more units.

@plumberparts 4 года назад

Christian B Hough the thing about the ‘auto shut off’ is the ‘leak’ could be me at 7am with a cup of tea! 😂😂 Have you been on any Ale Army’s of late?

@iankearns 4 года назад

@@plumberparts the idea of the water leak detector such as the product by Hive / British Gas takes into account normal water flow (I am sure you are aware of this but just stating for the other readers) and even long periods of water flow such as the missus in the shower however you can set that alert for long water flow to be whatever you want. Using the likes of IFTTT to receive the alert from Hive Leak Detector of high water flow and then instruct the Sure Stop to close the water valve would mean a precautionary system that even if false alarm, the water is easy to switch back on (and then modify the long water flow alert).

Cut the pipe push on the Surestop, rarely happens in the properties I work on. Three times out of four I'll have 3/4" imperial pipe which either requires green compression rings or a 3/4" to 22mm Speedfit adaptor and I hate those big ugly white push fit fittings. I use pressfit for most things now and rarely solder, don't you have a pressfit gun? Worth a future video if you do.

@TelfLad 3 года назад

perfect for detecting when the sure stop itself is leaking

@wjb2 4 года назад

sure stop need to integrate a leak detection system into the valve, so it switches the water of automatically. Now that would be the ultimate package.

@iankearns 4 года назад

As commented previously, this should be possible with IFTTT and something like a British Gas / Hive water detector

James, thought this looked very interesting so searched for user reviews. Found quite a few negative experiences where the device ended up leaking from the body (not faulty install). People complaining about the quality of build. What's your view on the standard of contruction of the actual valve? Another great video by the way.

@plumberparts 4 года назад

I've fitted loads and not had a problem. That being said, water pressures these days (especially at night!) can go up quite a bit...Could be something to do with that.

Would be worth seeing if the ‘ITTT’ (If This Then That) web service could automate switching the water off when the Honeywell sensor senses a leak. Saves any reliance on us humans and delay while sleeping or away from phone. Thoughts?

On detecting a leak this needs to immediately turn the water off, and THEN inform you it's done so.

@trappedinthedark8574 4 года назад

Hi James nice bit of kit but the problem I have is that I need to turn the water off before I can fit this on right? My stopcock under the kitchen sink only stops water going to the kitchen. I cannot find the stopcock for the bathroom, I don’t even know if there is one but how else am I suppose to stop water to the bathroom?! I live in a block of flats, any suggestions?

@Gaatyeo 4 года назад

Jim, great video and a simple device, what is the cost of the accessories to get the device automated as per video, - if needed. I think most people would go for the simple switch. Thanks

30-40 seconds wait time? I've got a ZWave mains shutoff motor that turns the ball valve. It reacts instantly. And if there is something wrong with it, I just take it off the valve and I can use the valve manually again. I had it installed more than a year ago and it still works perfect. I'd go mad waiting a minute for this thing to react.

@edcooper2396 4 года назад

Yeah they’ve gone for an aggressive battery saving strategy, wake the microprocessor up every 90 seconds to see if the gateway has a message, sensible decision for this application.

@JasGawera 4 года назад

Does the SureStop restrict the flow at all? Integrated leak detector sounds like a no brainer to me. Maybe could use IFTTT but really it should turn the water off without you having to do it. Then get a notification saying "leak detected AND water turned off, don't panic finish what you're doing then sort it out"

@surestop 3 года назад

Hi Jas Gawera. Some cases it has reduced but only by 3%. We are currently working on a new project for it to shut off automatically. So please keep a look out. Thanks Surestop

@iankearns 4 года назад

Been using Surestop for over 10 years in its first generation product. I say 'using'; not entirely true - read on please. Installed the valve and then put the on/off switch on the countertop (just means you dont have to get to the back of cupboards or pull appliances out). It is not 100% effective. It appears to use some sort of air pressure from the surface mounted switch back to the valve to close it. Out of the box this was fine but after a number of years it got stiff and required the switch to be dismantled and checked over. I even contacted SureStop who were somewhat helpful but ultimately didnt want to fix a failing product. Eventually the remote surface mounted button failed completely. Even now the local button on the valve is stiff and not easy to use. The addition of wireless control shows that they have developed the product but little comfort for those that spent money in the past on a flawed device.

@normanboyes4983 4 года назад

Ian Kearns I may be wrong but the valve ‘signal’ head is the same, so the remote unit is using air pressure to signal too.
