1. Installing your App
While the ball valve is being installed, set up the control hub functionality of your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve.
Visit ezlo.com/app on your iOS or Android phone or tablet to download the Vera Mobile app.
Create your account
The app will guide you through creating your Vera Mobile account, which will automatically link to your hub upon completion.
2. Adding your Hub
- From the "My Controllers" list, tap "Add New Controller" and select the "Water Valve".
- Connect the A/C power adapter to the bottom port on the rear of your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve. The LED should blink orange when powered on.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to connect the Smart Water Shut-Off Valve to your home Wi-Fi network.
- Your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve is now connected. Its LED will be a steady green when the valve is open, or steady red when closed.
Note: If your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve fails to connect to your Wi-Fi, it may be too far from your router. Consider using a range extender to improve the Wi-Fi signal to the valve.
3. Connecting the Actuator to the Ball Valve
Once the ball valve is plumbed into your home's water system, disconnect the Smart Water Shut-Off Valve from its AC power cable.
Snap the actuator onto the ball valve. Then, reconnect it to a nearby power source.
If your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve is located outside or far from a power source, you may need to use an extension cord.
4. Setup
Using the Vera Mobile app, locate the Water Valve in the "Devices" section. Toggle the valve to the closed and open positions to test functionality.
For enhanced capabilities, pair your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve with a Z-Wave Water Leak Sensor. Create a scene that automatically closes the valve if water is detected, then test by dripping water onto the sensor.
Note: If your Smart Water Shut-Off Valve is more than 30 feet from where your leak sensors will be placed, you may need to bring them within 10 feet of each other for initial pairing. A Z-Wave range extender might be necessary for reliable communication over longer distances.
5. Adding devices to the Smart Water Shut-Off Valve
The Smart Water Shut-Off Valve acts as a hub, allowing you to control multiple devices from a single app. Add devices such as leak sensors, lights, thermostats, and more to enhance your home's comfort and security.
To add new devices, tap the "+" sign on the "Devices" screen to launch the Device Pairing Wizard.
Control your home from anywhere.
