Eagle Shield High-Performance Emergency Gas Saver

In an emergency, do you and your family members know how to turn off the gas supply to your home? Unfortunately, most people don't.

Natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes significantly raise the risk of potentially catastrophic gas leaks when building damage causes the gas line to break. Gas line breaks can also be caused by building renovations, household mishaps or simply by moving a gas appliance. When the line breaks, gas escapes into the air creating the potential for fire.

How It Works

Eagle Shield High-Performance Emergency Gas Savers protect your family by automatically shutting off the natural or propane gas to a home as soon as a break is detected by any excessive flow of gas. Utility companies around the world have utilized our technology in their high pressure lines and plants for years. And now, the same technology is available to protect homeowners from potentially deadly gas fires and explosions.

How does the Eagle Shield Gas Saver know there is a break in the gas line? Each Eagle Shield Gas Saver is designed for a specific amount of gas flow and pressure. Gas flow will not exceed its normal flow rate unless there is a break in the line, allowing gas to flow freely into your home. Once the Gas Saver detects that the gas flow exceeds the maximum amount, the internal float is forced up-instantly shutting off the gas flow.

Our emergency Gas Savers also protect your home when there is any dangerous surge in the system, such as a regulator failing. In that event, when the pressure exceeds 2 psig this pressure forces the valve to the closed position.

You don't have to replace or reset our product if a break in the gas line occurs. The Eagle Shield High-Performance Emergency Gas Saver is designed to automatically reset after the break has been repaired. Once repaired, a small bypass on the valve lets the system pressurize automatically forcing the valve to the open position, ready to protect you again.

Built to Last

Eagle Shield High-Performance Gas Savers have a limited lifetime warranty that protects against any defects in the valve. Normal operating temperature is -20 to 150 degrees F. and every valve is factory tested before shipping to assure quality.

Eagle Shield Gas Savers have approvals from all the leading excess flow valve industry organizations including: CSA (Canadian Standards Association), DSA (Department of the State Architect), State Fire Marshall, International Association of Firemen and listed with IAPMO (International Association of Plumbers and Mechanical Officials).
