Installation instructions become clear once the product was in-hand. Was trying to decide if horizontal or vertical install would work and with or without the reset device. Finally ordered horizontal layout with reset device and was able to install behind toilet parallel to wall so it is not noticeable from above. Shuts off water flow and resets as described. Works better than anticipated.

Unfortunately, our house had water damage from a hung clogged toilet than overflowed for less than 30mins. After dealing with this incident I decided it was time to research to figure out what options were on the market to prevent this from happening again. Thankfully I landed on Hawkeye Water Defense. After purchasing a few water blocks for our toilets I decided to also protect our dishwasher, refrigerator, and washing machine. I’ve been impressed with their products build quality, functionality, and price. It’s a no-brainer to install in your home for the extra peace of mind!

We live in rural VT with well water. If the toilet accidentally runs (flapper issue) it wreaks havoc on our water system. Our house is 150 years old, well maintained but no major renovations. We have plenty to keep us busy and the water block-toilet shutoff just made our lives easier. We are tight on space in the bathroom and the horizontal design was perfect. It is easy to assemble, it works beautiful and there are plenty of online support materials available. I’m on the site now because I’m buying a 2nd unit for our other bathroom. I wish all products were as well designed & affordable as the water block-toilet shutoff. Well done!

Just received and installed the Water Block. We installed it, tested it and are very impressed. I think will stand the test of time.

Speedy delivery, nicely packaged. Waiting on a plumber to install.
Thank you!

Works as intended. If toilet runs, the water shuts off 45 seconds after the time it would take to fill the tank.
