(54) An improved waterstop device


(57) A waterstop device for a domestic electrical appliance includes: a solenoid valve with a body (10), an intake duct (12) and an outlet duct (14), an inner hose (16) for water to flow through, having a proximal end (18) fitted onto the outlet duct (14), and an outer hose (20) arranged so as to envelope the inner hose (16) and form an annular space (22) between the inner hose (16) and outer hose (20) with at least one electric cable (24) housed therein, leading to the body (10) of the solenoid valve. In addition, a covering of plastics material envelops the body (10) of the solenoid valve and the proximal end (18) of the inner hose (16), thereby ensuring that the inner hose (16) is secured to the outlet duct (14) of the solenoid valve.
