Abstract: A water control device that can be introduced into the main water supply line for a structure configured for automatic direct water allocation has a manifold with an inlet port and an outlet port in fluid communication with one another and a quarter turn valve disposed between the inlet and outlet ports and in fluid communication therewith. The quarter turn valve has a truncated conical shaped valve body that fits within a well in the manifold, the valve body having spaced apart solid side walls which define openings within opposite side walls, such that rotation of the valve body by a quarter turn will align either an opening or a solid side wall with the inlet and outlets ports for the well, thus alternately permitting or disrupting the flow of water through the valve.

Abstract: A water management system for reducing the damage caused by leaks in a structure including a manifold having first and second electronic valves and connected to a supply line. The system also includes a purge line and a connection line attached to the manifold as well as a requesting member with an activating member affixed thereto and a transmitter positioned proximal that signals the first electronic valve to open when the activating member is engaged. A method of using the system to reduce flooding risks in a structure is also disclosed.
