I need some advice about Automatic shut off valves. I can't find them local. My contracter who is putting in my hook ups on the second floor tried to get some information for me. This is what he told me.

The velocity of a liquid is a measure of the speed of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time. The velocity depends on the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time and on the area of the pipe or channel that the liquid is moving through.

So now I am not sure if we want to go ahead with the project or not. I can't get the shut off valves, can't seem to get them on board with a floor drain and or washing machine tub.

I am having an issue with them putting in a floor drain - they don't seem to want to, think it's necessary so I am not sure what to do. Anyway can someone recommend some automatic shut off valves that are reliable?

"He also said that a possible problem is that in the future if you don't occasionally pour water down it the water in the trap could completely evaporate and let sewer gas out or the drain could clog with lint and not work at all. I guess what it boils down to is that there are no guarantees that you'll never have a water problem with the washer even if we put all the safety devices possible in place. Maybe the best solution is to save the money on moving the W/D and buy the largest capacity units you can find and make less trips to the basement. You won't have to be concerned with the water problems and any possible vibration from the spinning washer."

"The supply house said they talked to the rep. that carries the shut off valves and he said they have had so many problems with them being reliable that he wouldn't recomend them at all. The plumber doesn't want any responsibility for them, you can order them yourself and they install easily. Your best defense from broken hoses is to turn the water off to the washer when you leave for any length of time and maybe replace them every 3 or 4 years with the best ones you can find."
