Setting an Unexpected Flow Limit

You can enter a flow limit for a water source that is turned off and then set up the system to shut

down the water source if that limit is exceeded. When you enable this feature, the system will

monitor the flow even when the water source is off in order to prevent water loss due to a broken

pipe.

When you have a NOMV, you can set this limit to allow some flow that is off schedule, such as from

manual taps or hose bibs.
