3. RESETTING AND OPENING THE VALVE AFTER A LEAK ALARM
3.1: Resetting the system after a leak has been detected
The Water Valve Control will shut the valve on the incoming water main or pipe if a leak detection tape is in contact with water.
1. Press the “WATER OFF” button on the Water Valve Control it will beep once and mute the alarm – the valve remains closed. If
the alarm continues, and you have a detection tape directly connected to the Water Valve Control, unplug the tape then press
the “WATER OFF” button on the Water Valve Control to mute the alarm.
2. Identify where in the property the leak has occurred.
3. If you have wireless leak detector transmitters installed the one that has instigated the alarm will be beeping. If none of the
Transmitters are beeping but you have a leak detection tape or tab directly connected to the Water Valve Control then this is
where the leak is.
4. Repair the leak and dry the leak detection tape. Tapes should be unplugged and dried either naturally, or with a hairdryer on a
medium setting held 1M away from the tape, or on a warm (not hot) radiator.
5. Reposition and reconnect the tape once dry.
6. Press “WATER ON” on the Water Valve Control to open the valve.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you have a ow meter installed the WARNING light will ash (no beeps) when water is owing through the meter.

3.3: Isolating a leak and turning the water on
Leaksafe recommend you repair all leaks before the mains water is turned back on.
Where a detected leak is from an appliance e.g., a washing machine, and the leak can be contained by not using that appliance, it
is possible to isolate that zone to allow the Leaksafe system to be reset and the water turned back on.
IF LEAK DETECTION IS DISABLED IN ANY PART OF A PROPERTY THAT AREA IS UNPROTECTED AND THE SYSTEM WILL NOT
ALARM OR SHUT THE WATER OFF IF ANOTHER LEAK OCCURS IN THAT AREA.
THE DECISION TO DISABLE ANY PART OF A LEAKSAFE SYSTEM LIES WITH THE OCCUPIER AND LEAKSAFE ACCEPTS NO
LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT DECISION.
To isolate a zone:
1. Unplug the leak detection tape protecting that zone from the Wireless Transmitter or Water Valve Control.
2. Press “WATER OFF” on the Water Valve Control.
3. Press “WATER ON” on the Water Valve Control to open the valve and restore water to the property.
IMPORTANT:
When the leak is repaired, REMEMBER TO DRY AND RECONNECT THE LEAK DETECTION TABS OR TAPES IN THAT AREA.
3.2: Resetting the system after the Continuous Flow limit is exceeded
1. Press the “WATER OFF” button on the Water Valve Control it will beep once and mute the alarm – the valve remains closed.
2. Press “WATER ON” on the Water Valve Control to open the valve.
4. ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE – PLEASE READ THIS SECTION
4.1: Test procedures:
Leaksafe recommend that you test your system every 6 months and always before you leave a property for a period of time.
1. Turn the water off using the wireless on/off switch. Check the water is off by opening a tap. Turn the tap off, turn the water
back on and check that the water is now running. If you do not have a wireless on/off switch installed, perform this test by
pressing the “WATER OFF” and “WATER ON” buttons on the Water Valve Control.
2. If you have wireless leak detector transmitters and leak detection tape installed, unplug the tape from the transmitter and plug
in the test cable supplied. Touch the metal pins together and check the valve closes and the system alarms. Reinstate the leak
detection tape and reset the Water Valve Control (See Section 3). Repeat for each transmitter you have installed.
3.4: Manual override on the Motorised Valve
To manually operate the valve, lift and turn the operating
button. When the valve is open the red line in the valve
status window is parallel to the water pipe and at right
angles when closed. Push the operating button down
again when you have nished turning the valve.

4.2: Replacing Batteries
Replace the batteries in your Water Valve Control and any Wireless Leak Detector Transmitters every 12 months to ensure
continuous operation.
Replace the 2 x CR2032 lithium batteries in the Wireless Switch every 3 years.
General
The batteries in the Water Valve Control and any wireless leak detector transmitter are checked once a day. If battery power is low
an alarm will sound/ash for 3-4 weeks. If the batteries in the Water Valve Control are not changed, the valve will remain in the
position it is in when the batteries are exhausted.
4.2.1 Replacing the batteries in the Water Valve Control:
1. If the Water Valve Control is mains powered, turn off at the electric socket.
2. Unplug the valve and lift the Water Valve Control off its retaining screws.
3. Lift and remove the catch cover on the top of the case and press the catch underneath to release the front panel.
4. Remove the 3 x AA batteries and leave for at least 10 minutes to allow any residual power to drain.
5. Install 3 x new AA batteries, reassemble, reconnect the valve and test the Water On and Water Off function.
4.2.2 Replacing the batteries in a Wireless Leak Detection Transmitter:
1. Remove the transmitter from the wall/surface.
2. Remove cover and replace 2 x AA batteries.
3. Reassemble, test (see 4.1.2 above) and rehang the transmitter.
4.2.3 Replacing the batteries in the Wireless Switch
If the switch is xed using self adhesive strips, carefully ease the switch off, or twist anticlockwise to release from the wall screws.
Slide the backplate down to release the catches then ease the cover surround off by inserting a small at bladed electrical
screwdriver into the openings on the side of the switch and turn gently. The cover and switch assembly will come away from the
backplate.
Install 2 new CR2032 lithium batteries into the battery compartments, reassemble and test.
4.3: Decalcication routine
Once every 4 weeks the Leaksafe Motorised Valve performs a decalcication routine by automatically closing the valve by one
quarter, and then immediately re-opening it. This routine only part closes the valve and will not interfere with any appliances that
are using water at the time.
