The Aqara Smart Valve Controller T1 is a DIY smart home accessory for consumers looking to prevent water damage to install onto their existing water valve. The device works by being installed onto the butterfly or lever-style water valves where it will go to work offering users the ability to remotely shut off the water in the event of a leak. This comes as a further extension of the water leak detector devices on the market by allowing users to take action as soon as a problem is detected, even if they aren't nearby.
The Aqara Smart Valve Controller T1 is powered by four AA batteries to ensure it's easy to install wherever the waterline is located and will work for up to two years.
