ABSTRACT:
A fluid cutoff system for preventing fluid flow through a hose whenever a desired amount of fluid has been deposited onto an area is comprised of a tube having a valve therein. An accumulator has a float floatably disposed therein with an extension attached to the float. The extension interacts with the valve such that whenever the float is in a relatively low position the extension holds the valve in an open position and whenever the float is in a relatively high position--corresponding to fluid being deposited in the accumulator--the extension disengages from the valve and the valve closes and prevents water flow through the tube.
