FloodMaster's FM-090 is the system that can prevent extensive water damage when a washing machine fails, causing water leakage. This type of household damage is a common cause of costly insurance claims and deductibles. Such damages are more extensive with upstairs laundry rooms and apartments located above the ground floor.
The FM-090 is a complete system that is offered as a local alarm and with a connection to a home security system, if desired.

Typical Installation
The FloodMaster FM-090 is most commonly installed in conjunction with a residential washing machine, between the hot and cold water faucets and the water line connections on the washer. Although the typical installation may have a manual shut-off lever (valve) for water flow shut-off that requires handson action, the FloodMaster provides automatic shut-off when leaking water comes in contact with the sensor. When the sensor is placed on the floor near or under the washer, the flow of water will be shut-off almost immediately to prevent extensive water damage.
