Even in the most expertly plumbed overflow systems, accidents can happen. Avoid the hassle, damage and expense of an overflowing tank or sump with the Float Valve & Automatic Shutoff Valve Kit from ESU. The automatic shutoff valve is set to activate when it detects water rising above a level you predetermine, forcing the float valve to shut water off at its source. Plumbing kit also includes a check valve and three feet of blue connection tubing.
