2 hours ago2 hr This topic was closed Feb 2024.I read through all of the discussions and wanted to see if anyone had any updates that they could offer.In that discussion I am leaning toward beninsteon's suggestion:I would recommend against anything that is cloud dependent/connected. Additionally, given the importance of what this is doing, zwave or even wifi are not ideal.I am using a hard wired motorized valve (eg. https://www.amazon.ca/Motorized-Stainless-Polarity-U-S-Solid/dp/B06XWG6ZLS) controlled via a Global Cache GC-100 (IP2CC would work also https://www.amazon.ca/Global-Caché-Ip2Cc-P-Contact-Closure/dp/B002ZV8FVI), connected to my network via Ethernet.Using programs/network resources in ISY to trigger valve closure when water detected where it shouldn't be.Also, I am interesting in sensors. I currently use INSTEON 2852-222 Water Leak Sensor.I had one failure using the Insteon sensor. I have a pump room where I boost water pressure from 30 psi to 70 psi.I had a one way valve rupture and it flooded the pit of the pump room where the sensor was located so fast that it drown the insteon sensor.I never received the warning email. It seems like I need to have the water sensor in a housing that would restrict water exposure.Any thoughts would be welcome.
1 hour ago1 hr I have a zwave watercop valve. Zwave is generally quite reliable. A hardwired valve would need to be controlled by a contact closure, which would necessarily involve some communications (wired or wireless) between the eisy and a contact closure device.
