Hi Jincleveland, if I were you I wouldn't even bother repairing it, but would rather purchase a Brand New Water Cut off. If this thing decides to die on you, your boiler will run with no water, and it will definately level your house down. This device plays a very important part with your boiler, and one should not play around with..

Slow down helpless, If it is just the valve on the bottom of the unit it can be replaced. Just make sure that the unit itself it working.
