Battery operated Water Alarm WA100

Help protect your home from potential water damage by placing a water alarm anywhere a potential water leak may occur such as: near a sump pump,

plumbing, refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines, sinks, water heaters, toilets, and basements.

Activating the unit and general use

Remove the cover for the battery compartment, located on the right side of the alarm and extend the wires and the connector that are inside. Insert the

9 Volt battery making sure it snaps completely into the battery terminals and cannot be shaken loose. Place the battery into the compartment and

replace the cover.

The alarm can be tested by placing it on a wet surface so water is across the two metal sensors on the unit. The alarm should be tested monthly.

Replace the battery if the alarm has operated for an extended period of time. Depending on use and if the unit has gone into alarm, the battery should

be replaced every year or if the unit does not test properly. If the unit goes into alarm it will sound for up to 72 hours depending on when the battery was

replaced and if the unit has gone into alarm prior. The battery should be replaced 12 months after installation. Write the replacement date on the area

provided on the back of the alarm.

The operating temperature of the alarm is 32˚F to 120˚F. The storage temperature of the alarm is -20˚F to 150˚F.

Placement

The sensor is located on the bottom of the alarm. The alarm can be placed directly on the floor with the sensor compartment closed, or the sensor

compartment can be opened and the sensor wires extended up to 6 feet to reach a remote location. Adjust wires so contacts are flat against surface.

The alarm is splash and water resistant, but is not waterproof. If the alarm has been submerged in water or becomes wet, test the alarm as described

above to ensure it still operates. If it does not operate replace the alarm.

Limitations of Water Alarms

Water alarms can only work if they are properly located, installed, and maintained, and if water reaches them. Water alarms cannot work if the batteries

are missing, disconnected or dead, if the wrong type of battery is used, or if the batteries are not installed correctly. The alarm will not notify if there are

low, dead, or missing batteries. Unit does not float. Water Alarms produce a loud 85-dB signal, but may not be heard if: 1) the unit is located outside a

closed or partially closed door, 2) residents recently consumed alcohol or drugs, 3) the alarm is drowned out by noise from stereo, TV, traffic, air

conditioner or other appliances, 4) residents are hearing impaired or sound sleepers. Water alarms may not have time to alarm before water damage

occurs.

Water alarms are not foolproof. Like any electronic device, water alarms are made of components that can wear out or fail at any time. You must test the

unit monthly. Water alarms cannot prevent water damage. They are not a substitute for property insurance. The unit should be replaced immediately if

it is not operating properly. Do not try to fix the alarm yourself – this will void your warranty. Replace the Water alarm after 10 years from date of

purchase.
