Tools and Hardware Reviews of Watts EDP0004640 IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Shut Off ValveCustomer Review: Failed after about one year Summary: 1 StarsLast year I built a first floor laundry area and from day one was concerned about leaks. I was totally gung ho about the Intelliflow. The machines are under a counter and though I built cabinet/counter to be serviceable (counter can be removed) it is still a bit of work to get to it.
This week the Intelliflow failed after about one year in service. My plumber was out and we troubleshooted the living heck out of this - the line, hose, screens... everything is clear. The unit delivers hot, but only a trickle of cold. There is no debri in the unit. It is the unit that failed. Tomorrow my plumber is coming back to install a regular valve with a Burstbuster. The Burstbuster will not turn on/off with the machine, but it has leak detection and can be easily bypassed if there is a problem (so we are not without the ability to laundry for a week!). I have top notch hoses as well (Floodcheck - search for them, they do not have any kind of valve, just very well built).
Though I found a dealer who had a Intelliflow in stock and could pick up a new one today and be washing away the piles of clothes that have collected, I just can't depend on the product and wish I would have made this decision on day one.
Seems like a good idea, but the product is cheaply built. That is the problem.
Description of Watts EDP0004640 IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Shut Off ValveUses a state-of-the-art electronic control device that senses the washing machine current flow. When the washing machine is turned on, the controls detect the current flow to the washer, opening both hot and cold water inlet valves to allow water to flow to the washing machine. When the washing machine completes the full cycle the device senses the lack of current and closes the water inlet valves.
