Questions about the smart water shut-off valve
Is it compatible with my alarm system?
Compatibility depends on the exact panel model, its radio frequency and the active Alarm.com service. Solution Alarme Plus checks these before confirming the equipment.
Where should this device be installed?
After the manual valve if possible. The final location also takes into account radio range, power supply, the environment and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Will I get alerts on my phone?
Leak and shut-off command. Available notifications and how they can be customized depend on the configuration and the selected package.
