For the minor cost of having a back up low water cut off, I always recommend it. I don't think typical codes in the US require it.To learn more about this professional, click here to visit their ad in Find A Contractor.0

If you do install a second one, have it on it's own pigtail. They clog very easily. - oops, I was thinking pressuretrols.0

No but it is a belt and suspenders theory
I like a probe type and a manual flush type. MD0 -
Oops. You know what I was thinking, Paul. In NYC two pressure controls (one manual reset) are needed for many installations.ethicalpaul said:LWCO on a pigtail?
