SealStop® Automatic Water Shut-Off

One of those brilliantly simple products that makes you wonder why somebody didn’t invent it years ago.

I discovered SealStop because we actually use one here on the farm, particularly when we’re calf rearing — and it very quickly became one of those bits of kit I wouldn’t want to be without.

If you’ve ever put the hose in a bucket or trough, wandered off to do one quick job and returned rather later than intended to find half the yard under water… this is for you.

SealStop® is a portable automatic water shut-off valve. Simply attach it to a standard ½” garden hose, position it on your bucket, trough or container and turn on the tap. When the water reaches the correct level, SealStop automatically stops the flow.

No batteries. No electricity. No timers. No app. Just a clever mechanical valve doing a very useful job.

Perfect for farms, stables, smallholdings, gardens and anywhere else you’re regularly filling buckets, troughs or containers.

It’s exactly the sort of product I wanted Friends of 3 Donkeys to be about — genuinely useful kit from another small British business that I’ve found, used myself and think is worth sharing.

Designed and made in Yorkshire.
