Application
The Taco LeakBreaker is installed on the incoming cold water supply to the
water heater, shutting off the water to a leaking water heater. The plumb and
plug design is specifically engineered for use on a new or retrofit installation.
Components are pre-wired to simplify the installation process, just plug in the
sensor, valve, power supply and/or batteries. LeakBreaker can be tested anytime
and then be reset to guard against a future leak.
