Sorry but a little off topic. This is what I did so that if the float valve in my barrel to shut off the RO unit fails to prevent a flood.I put the float valve about 6" down from the top, 2" above that I drilled a hole and put small fitting in and a hose that runs to the floor drain. The float valve has'nt failed yet but at least this just adds a little protection shall it fail. Theres alot of posts about people causing floods due to forgeting to turn off their RO units or the valves sticking.

Most policies cover water damage, one thing to note is most only cover sudden escape of water, if you have a slow leak over time most companies will not cover, also if you have a tank blow (happened to me once) they will cover damage caused but not the item that caused the damage ( unless someone or something accidentally hits the tank and causes the leak, then you can argue replacement on the tank as well, pray it never happens, salt water causes more damage than you think.
