Forget to Turn Water Off
By: the Editorial Team. Updated: September 17, 2021.

Problem description
As people grow older they often become somewhat forgetful. We start to worry about questions like:
"Did I leave the water running?"
How do we make it so these sorts of questions are not things that we need to worry about?

Thanks for the problem discussion and solutions.
At my property, I havte 11 faucets (mostly oudoors) that I worry about leaking or leaving on. I've installed a sensitive water level sensor on my small storage tank. If a slow drop in level is detected, then I receive a text message from an IOT system called Cayenne.
Not so easy to setup; also may not be very reliable in the long run.

Hello Ken,
Could you please provide a link to that slow-leak sensor?
