System Description
The WaterCopÂŽ PRO System is designed to detect
leaks in your ­plumbing system at predetermined
locations, and automatically shut off the water supply
to help effectively reduce the chances of major water
damage associated with a leak.

Placement of Flood Sensors
Each WaterCopÂŽ PRO can support an unlimited
number of flood sensors. Additional sensors may be
added at ­any time. A sensor consists of a transmitter
and a sensor probe (a small disc at the end of the wire,
with two short gold prongs protruding from one side).
Flood sensors should be placed in locations where
leaks are most likely to occur.
Suggested Locations
• Washing Machines • Toilets
• Dishwashers		
• Icemakers/Refrigerators
• Kitchen Sinks		
• Automatic Humidifiers
• Bathroom Sinks
• Water Heaters
• Pipes that are prone to freezing (Freeze sensors are
also available)
How the System Works
Flood sensors constantly
monitor their selected
areas for accumulating
moisture. When a leak
is detected, a sensor will
send a radio frequency
signal to the WaterCopÂŽ
PRO unit instructing it
to shut off the water
supply to the home. The
WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve
will remain closed until it
is manually reset.
The flood sensors are
a battery powered device enabling it to be located
­anywhere a leak is likely to occur, or where water
might cause damage. The WaterCopÂŽ PRO requires
household electrical power ­(common 115   VAC,
grounded outlet) and will not ­operate during a power
outage.
The transmitter in the flood sensors and the receiver in
the WaterCopÂŽ PRO communicate by radio frequency.
The smaller the distance between them, the stronger
the signal will be. Transmission distance is somewhat
dependent upon the building layout and type of
construction. The transmitter (attached to the sensor)
must be kept dry. It is NOT splash proof. Sensors
should never be placed outdoors. The sensor probe
detects the water from a leak and is ­completely
waterproof. Sensor probes should be placed on the
floor or in areas where water would tend to accumulate
rapidly in common leak or overflow ­situations. Make
sure that any water from a leak will drain toward
the sensor probe, not away from it. Avoid high traffic
areas where the cord or sensor could be stepped on
or kicked and where children or pets may disturb it.
The sensor probe should be placed FLAT on the
floor so water can be detected as soon as it begins
to accumulate. The sensor probe may be secured to
the floor with screws. To avoid damage to ­transmitters
and to provide for the strongest signal possible, the
transmitter portion of the flood sensor should be
mounted in a convenient location (on the wall, in a
­cabinet, closet, etc.) two to three feet above the floor
(see illustration). (See Installation section for details on
sensor ­installation.)
Selection of WaterCopÂŽ PRO Installation
Sites
The WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve should be installed in the
main water line just ­downstream from the main shutoff valve in your home. The front control panel of
the WaterCopŽ PRO should be ­easily visible in order
to see what position the valve is in (open/closed). It
should also be easily ­accessible for resetting after
a leak has been detected and the water ­supply
has been shut off. While the WaterCopÂŽ PRO is
completely ­supported by the piping in your plumbing
system when it is installed, placement of the valve
should ensure that the housing is protected from
use as a step or from other excessive loads. The
WaterCopÂŽ PRO requires household electrical power,
and the ­provided power cord must be plugged into a­
­properly grounded power source (115 VAC). Do not
Flood Sensor Battery Life
WaterCopÂŽ PRO panel. After the plumbing problem
is fixed, reset the WaterCop® PRO by pressing “open
valve” (green circle) on the face of the WaterCop®
PRO. Valve will open and green indicator will be lit.
See illustration at left.
High quality alkaline “AA” batteries are recommended.
Under normal conditions (standby mode) the batteries
should last about one year. Each transmitter has a
low battery signal. Replace batteries at least annually
or when low battery signal is detected. Re-test each
unit in its regular location (see installation manual).
If you are away from home for long periods of time,
transmitters should be tested upon your return to
ensure proper function.
Note: If major repairs are needed to correct the
­plumbing system, it is recommended that the manual
shut-off valve upstream of the WaterCopÂŽ PRO also
be closed ­during the repairs. Close the main water
­­shut-off valve and unplug the WaterCopŽ PRO before
making repairs on the plumbing system.
Operating the WaterCopÂŽ PRO System
Note: In case of a power failure, the WaterCopÂŽ PRO
use the ­manual shut-off valve to turn the water off in
case of an emergency. When power is restored, the
WaterCopÂŽ PRO will remain in its last known position
indicated by the red or green lights on the face of the
unit.
The normal position of the valve is open to allow full
flow throughout the plumbing system. WaterCopÂŽ
PRO is a full port ball valve which does not restrict the
flow capacity of your plumbing system. The indicator
lights on the face of the WaterCopÂŽ PRO will show the
position of the valve.
WaterCopÂŽ PRO Specifications
If the valve is in the closed position (the red light will be
lit), press “open” and the valve will move to the open
position (green indicator will light).

the WaterCopŽ PRO and the valve closes, ­turning off
the water source to protect the building from additional
water ­damage. The red indicator light will signal that
the valve is now in the closed position. The valve will

Adherence to all local and municipal building, plumbing
and electrical codes as they pertain to the installation of
the WaterCopÂŽ PRO System is of utmost importance.
Codes in some areas may require that a licensed
plumber be employed to do the installation, or that the
proper permits be obtained prior to any installation.
Even if local codes do not require a licensed plumber to
do the installation, it is necessary that the installer has
a professional level of competence in both ­plumbing
and electrical skills to ­perform the ­installation. These
instructions assume this level of knowledge and skill. If
in doubt, use a licensed ­professional.

Manually Test the Valve
•
•
The valve closes with enough force to cut off a
finger.
Be extremely careful to keep fingers and other
items out of the valve.
To test your WaterCopÂŽ PRO system, gently pull the
safety plugs out from each end of the valve. Check the
position of the valve by looking in either threaded end.
In the open position, you will be able to see through
the valve; in the closed position only the shiny surface
of the ball will be visible. Place the base of the housing
on a sturdy surface, as close as feasibly possible to the
location where it will be permanently installed. Plug the
WaterCopÂŽ PRO power supply into a nearby 115 VAC
outlet. The valve position indicator lights should now
correspond to the actual position you noticed. Green =
Open. Red = Closed. Grasp both sides of the housing
(not the valve) with the valve pointing away from you
for safety. Being very careful not to have your fingers
or other objects near the valve openings, press the
colored circle just below the unlit indicator light. You
will hear the motor change the valve position. Again,
look into the threaded end of the valve to verify that the
valve has changed position. If it appears that the valve
has not turned from one position to the other, DO NOT
try to reposition the valve yourself by inserting any tool
or fingers into the valve. Operate the valve several
more times from open to close, checking each time
for proper positioning. If you are experiencing trouble
getting the valve to open and shut, call the installation
help line ­listed on the back cover.
Repeat above steps for all of your wireless sensors
taking care to program them in the same order as
labeled. Repeat for all sensors. When finished Press
‘MODE’ twice to return to normal mode. If you need
to remove a device for any reason, please see the
instructions ‘TO REMOVE DEVICES’
TO POWER AND PROGRAM
MONITORING STATION
The WaterCopÂŽ PRO Monitoring station (part number
WPMS) provides instant feedback of sensor alarm and
trouble conditions as well as open/close status and
control of water supply. An audible alarm will sound
when any sensor detects flooding. The Hardwired
Sensor Monitoring station (part number WPMSH)
includes 8 zones to attach WaterCopÂŽ PRO hard wires
flood sensors (part number WPSC).
Plug the WaterCopÂŽ PRO Monitoring Station power
supply into a nearby 115VAC outlet. The LCD display
will beep once and read WaterCopÂŽ PRO Valve
Lost? ***ALERT*** ?COMMUNICATIONS? until the
Monitoring Station has been programmed to the
WaterCop motor.
Manually Test the Flood Sensors
Each flood sensor is a battery-operated (or AC
adaptable) radio ­transmitter. The units are shipped
without batteries. Two fresh “AA” lithium batteries or
optional flood sensor AC adaptors are needed to power
each unit. To install batteries, remove the battery cover
located on the back of the sensor, and install batteries
in accordance with the (+ and –) placement guide.
Reinstall back plate.
To Program Monitoring Station
Similar to flood sensors, the Monitoring Station
is programmed using the keys on the WaterCopÂŽ
PRO motor.
Follow suggestions found in the section titled
“Placement of Flood Sensors” for recommendations
where sensors should be placed. Locate a wall near
the area you choose to monitor. Avoid high traffic
areas where cord or sensor could be stepped on or
kicked. Mount transmitter at a convenient location on
the wall, two to three feet above the floor. This will
help avoid damage to the sensor and provide a strong
signal. Use fasteners included with the unit.
On the WaterCop® PRO motor PRESS ‘MODE’
twice (LCD will display Device add press next).
PRESS ‘CLOSE’ (LCD will display Device add
Device # (next number)).
On the Monitoring Station PRESS ‘CLOSE’
to add the monitoring station. The WaterCopÂŽ
PRO motor will turn to a closed position (LCD will
display WaterCopÂŽ normal WaterCopÂŽ Normal
Water Is Off).
1. Following all safety precautions, make sure that
the WaterCopÂŽ PRO is plugged in and the valve is
in the open position. Leave the WaterCopÂŽ PRO
near your main water line, on a sturdy surface. It
is important that anyone who will be near the valve
is aware of the safety precautions, and does not
insert any object into the valve, or handle the valve
during the test.
2. At one of the locations you have chosen to
monitor, drop the sensor probe(not the mounted
transmitter) into a cup of water. Hold until you hear
PRESS ‘OPEN’ on the Monitoring station to
complete programming and reopen the valve. The
LCD will display WaterCopÂŽ Normal.
Pre-installation Testing of WaterCopÂŽ PRO
Although each unit is pre-tested at the factory, it is
highly recommended that the unit be tested prior to
installation to ensure proper operation in your home.
Operating the valve before connecting to the water
line will not damage it.

the sensor transmit a signal to the WaterCopÂŽ
PRO (about 5 seconds). This test simulates a leak,
and lets you check for interference between the
sensor and the WaterCopÂŽ PRO.
Take the sensor out of the water and carefully dry
off the sensor and prongs.
Go back to your WaterCopÂŽ PRO and verify that
the valve has closed (the red indicator light will
be lit). The display will indicate which sensor
activated the valve.
Keep all objects away from the valve, reset the
WaterCop® PRO by pushing the “open” button.
Repeat steps 2 through 5 until you have tested
each sensor in the locations you wish to monitor.
accompanying Owner’s Manual should be read and
completely understood.
Review Location and Type
of Main Supply Line
The main supply line should enter the house in either
the basement or a crawl space beneath the first floor.
The water main shut-off valve is usually located near
where the line comes through the basement wall or just
after the water line enters the living area from the crawl
space. In apartments, townhouses, and manufactured
housing constructions the water main shut-off valve
can usually be found in close proximity to the water
heater installation. The WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve should
be installed in the main water line just downstream
from the main shut-off valve in your home. The water
supply must be shut off prior to installation of the
WaterCopÂŽ PRO.
Troubleshooting
•
•
•
If the flood sensor does not close the valve, check
that the batteries are good and that they are
installed properly. Repeat test.
If the batteries are good and the flood sensor still
does not make the valve close, remove it from its
installed location and place it close to the valve.
Repeat test.
If the sensor operates properly when it is close
to the WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve, but not when it is
installed at its remote location, try moving the
sensor to a different position or try a different flood
sensor. Some possible causes of signal reduction
are steel construction, foil backed insulation or
other large metallic barriers.
Choose a dry location to install the WaterCopÂŽ PRO.
The front control panel should be easily visible in order
to see what position the valve is in (open/closed) and
accessible for resetting after a leak has been detected
and corrected. Place the valve where the housing is
protected from use as a step or other excessive loads.
The shut-off valve must be installed:
•
•
•
Installation of Flood Sensor
Once testing is complete, finish installation of the flood
sensors by unwinding the cord and placing the sensor
probe on the floor at the lowest point (where water
would naturally collect) in the area to be monitored.
Be sure that the sensor probe is placed FLAT on the
floor so water can be detected as soon as it begins
to accumulate. The sensor probe may be secured to
the floor with screws or adhesive tape, taking care
that the metal probes are not covered. Verify that the
transmitter and wire are clear of doors, drawers, sharp
edges, or other hazards that may cause damage.
•
In the main water line.
In place of or just downstream from the main water
shut-off valve.
Where it is accessible for checking status, resetting
the valve and Adding or removing sensors from the
network.
Where the case is protected from use as a step or
other excessive loads.
Caution: Never use the housing for leverage when
mounting this unit or tightening fittings. Use a wrench
on the valve flats that are provided.
Caution: High heat from soldering or brazing can
damage valve seats or motor housing. Proper
precautions should be taken to prevent damage from
heat when installing the unit. Remove plastic housing
before soldering valve in place.
Unplug the WaterCopÂŽ PRO after the testing is
complete. The WaterCopÂŽ PRO can now be installed
into the plumping system.
Additional Part Requirements
Installation of the WaterCopÂŽ PRO will require
additional parts. When the main supply line is cut to
accommodate the WaterCopÂŽ PRO, new fittings will
be needed to connect the ends of the piping to the
WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve.
Prior to installation, read all warnings and precautions
carefully.
Installation Procedure
Check the contents of the carton with the products
listed on the carton label. The shipping package should
contain the following:
The type of connecting fittings to use will be determined
by the type of existing piping, local plumbing codes,
and “industry standard ­practices.”
1 ea. WaterCopÂŽ PRO with power adaptor
1 ea. Owner’s Manual/Installation Guide
1 ea. Ball Valve
Note: The package may contain Sensors if 		
purchased as part of kit.
The most common material for water supply lines is
copper. If the WaterCopÂŽ PRO is to be installed in
a copper line, you still have a choice of fittings and
methods of installation.
Read Operating Instructions before any installation is
attempted. All sections of this Installation Guide and
Compression Fittings
Solder Fittings
The unit can be installed with compression fittings
using common household tools and basic mechanical
ability. You will need:
An alternative method is to solder the unit into the
water line. This method requires a considerably higher
skill level to accomplish the installation properly and
safely. If you are not skilled in this area, it is strongly
recommended that you contact a professional plumber
to do this type of installation.
a) 2 fittings (male pipe thread x compression) available
at most local hardware or plumbing supply stores
b) Teflon tape or other thread sealant
c) Tubing cutter
d) Ruler
e) Pencil or marker
f) 2 large adjustable wrenches
Electrical Connection
The WaterCopÂŽ PRO is supplied with a power adaptor.
Consult local electrical codes as to the necessity of
ground fault protection. It is recommended that the
WaterCopÂŽ PRO not be plugged into an extension cord.
Review “Specification” current and power requirements
as not to overload the circuit supplying power.
Measure the outside diameter of the copper tube and
note the valve size to be sure you purchase the proper
size fittings for the job.
Warnings and Precautions
1. Remove nuts and sleeves from compression
fittings and install the fittings into each end of the
valve using Teflon tape or other thread sealant to
ensure a watertight seal. Hold one wrench on flats
of valve body and use the other to tighten fittings.
2. Measure the distance from end to end of valve
assembly. For 1/2” tube (5/8 outside diameter)
subtract 1/2”, for 3/4” tube (7/8 outside diameter)
subtract 3/4” from your measurement. This is the
length of the section of tubing to be cut out of the
existing line. The piece of existing tubing to be cut
out is shorter than the measured length so that
tube ends extend into the compression fittings.
3. Select the location for the WaterCopÂŽ PRO. Be
sure to consider that you will need access to the
front panel of the control unit. After cutting the
section of tube out of the line, you will need to shift
the tube ends to be able to fit the unit into place.
Make sure you will have access and room to adjust
before you cut the tube.
4. Mark the tube in the location you have selected.
Double check the length and location you marked.
5. Turn water off and drain the system.
6. Use tube cutter to cut copper tube at the locations
you marked. Careful, there will probably still be
some water in the line.
7. Remove any burrs from the tube ends and clean
ends.
8. Install compression nuts and sleeves to each tube
end.
9. Shift tube ends to install WaterCopÂŽ PRO valve in
line.
10. Position the unit and tighten compression nuts.
