Shower water pump timer

I have a water pump to increase the pressure for the master shower. I only want it to be running when someone is taking a shower. I decided to have the pump come on if two conditions are met. One, the shower light has to be on and two, a motion sensor has to be activated. To that end, I wrote the following program:

 

If

Status 'Indoor / Master Bath / Shower' is On

And Status 'Indoor / Master Bath / Shower Sensor / Shower Sensor-Sensor' is On

 

Then

Set 'Indoor / Master Bath / Water Pump' On

 

Else

Set 'Indoor / Master Bath / Water Pump' Off

 

 

 

Because my wife tends to leave the lights on, I also wrote the following program to turn off the shower light:

 

If

Status 'Indoor / Master Bath / Shower' is not Off

And Status 'Indoor / Master Bath / Shower Sensor / Shower Sensor-Sensor' is not On

 

Then

Wait 15 minutes

Set 'Indoor / Master Bath / Shower' Off

Set 'Indoor / Master Bath / Water Pump' Off

 

Else

- No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

 

 

 

I set the timeout for the motion sensor to 8.5 minutes. I'm assuming that means that the sensor will send an off signal if no motion is detected in 8.5 minutes which should be sufficient.

 

Does this look right?
