Bulldog-IV Integrated 1" Wi-Fi Smart Water Valve (Base Unit)

The EcoNet Controls Bulldog-IV (EVC300-IV-WIFI) is a professional-grade plumbing solution designed to replace your main water shutoff valve with a smart, motorized system.

Unlike retrofit "clamp-on" models, this unit features a Heavy-Duty 1-Inch Stainless Steel Ball Valve that is installed inline with your plumbing. It connects directly to your Wi-Fi network to provide remote control, scheduling, and automatic leak protection without requiring a separate hub.

Who is this model for?

This is the Base Unit. It is the ideal foundation for:

• Renovations & New Builds: Installing a smart valve during plumbing rough-in.
• App Control Users: Homeowners who primarily want to turn water on/off remotely (e.g., for vacation homes) and do not yet need a full kit of wireless sensors.
• Mechanical Room Protection: Includes a Wired Leak Probe to protect the immediate area (like the floor near the valve) right out of the box.

Professional Installation Required

Key Features

• Integrated Design: A complete motorized valve assembly (Lead-Free Stainless Steel) replaces old, seized, or reliable manual valves.
• Wi-Fi Direct (No Hub): Connects natively to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. Control via the SmartLife App (iOS/Android).
• Voice Control: Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home for hands-free operation.
• Local Leak Protection: The included Wired Sensor Probe plugs into the controller. If it detects water, the valve closes immediately—even if the internet is down.
• High Torque: Industrial-grade motor delivers ~15Nm of force, ensuring the valve closes completely every time.

FAQ

Is this a kit with wireless sensors?
No. This is the base unit. It includes one wired sensor for the mechanical room. You can purchase EcoNet ELS100 wireless sensors separately to monitor bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry areas.

Will this restrict my water pressure?
No. The valve is a "Full Port" design, meaning the internal opening is the same diameter as the pipe, ensuring zero reduction in water pressure or flow.

Does it work if Wi-Fi goes down?
Yes. The leak protection logic is local. If the wired sensor (or added wireless sensors) detects water, the valve will close automatically regardless of internet status.
