does any one know of a valve...

[feverfish]

that shuts off when the power does?

A solenoid (or control) valve. You get them specified as normally open or normally closed. They are pretty pricey and can require some fancy wiring.

Look at www.mcmaster.com
Get a normally closed 110v solenoid valve, and wire a plug to it. Plug it into an outlet, and when you lose power it will shut. Make SURE that it is rated for continuous duty.

McMasters has everything! Great place to look if you can't find the hardware you are looking for. I don't use the website, I have the catelog.

Yeah, I've been in the plumbing trade for close to 20 years and I've never heard of them!
I'll have to call them in the morning and talk numbers with them to see how competitive they can be.
