Flood

codename: Mario Bros

Check

  • Storm well
  • Is there power to sump pump

Action

  • Turn off water main leading into house
  • if storm well is source of flood:
    • drop a sump pump and dump excess water to front lawn

Preventative Measures

  • install zigbee water sensors.
  • determine count
  • determine if one hub can cover the house
  • look into ways to use only one sensor for both sink and toilet. (run a towel or paper)

the water filture kit has a mechanical switch that cuts water lead upon getting wet. It’s specifically designed for the water leading into the filter unit but maybe there’s something similar for standard water lines.
