Waterguard Solo User Guide
The Solo controller contains a 3V backup battery. This will provide power for up to 1 month if
mains power is disconnected. Ensure to replace the battery (Size Code: CR123) after prolonged
power loss. The Solo controller will also close the valve before complete power loss. Once
replaced no setup is required but it is advised to test the Solo once power is restored.
Check the LED on the Solo switches on and is a solid red light when mains power is applied. Run
the water in the property (the Solo will perform 2 brief flashes every 2 seconds indicating that
water is flowing).
Whilst the water is running press the button on the controls and release, after 10 seconds the
controller will close the valve and water will stop running. The controller will flicker on and off
every second indicating that the valve is closed, press the button again to open the valve and
reinstate the water.
In hard water areas it is recommended that the
valve assembly is dismantled and cleaned with
limescale remover every 12 months as build up
can cause the unit to fail.
The valve doesn’t open or close…………………….
If all controls are functioning as normal but the valve is failing to close, please see
Routine
Maintenance
above as the valve assembly may be blocked up.
How to manually bypass the valve to allow water flow…………………….
WARNING The manual bypass must only be used in an emergency to restore the water supply
when the controller is damaged or there has been a long-term loss of mains power.
Rotate the whole coil head as shown.
