Every smart water shut-off valve across your estate, on one live dashboard

Facilities teams and operators run hundreds of automatic shut-off valves across student accommodation, hotels and multi-site portfolios — and still have no way of knowing when one has tripped. We change that.

A vendor-agnostic monitoring layer for the smart and automatic water shut-off valves already fitted across your sites. We retrofit a low-power sensor to the kit you have, read the moment a valve changes state, and turn a silent trip into an instant alert.

IoT Technologies smart water shut-off valve monitoring — a retrofit sensor on an automatic shut-off valve with a real-time alerts dashboard

How it works

Monitoring for the shut-off valves you already trust.

Retrofit to any valve

A low-power sensor fits to the shut-off valves you already have and reads the physical change of state — vendor- and protocol-agnostic, so a mixed estate of different makes lands on one feed.

Know the instant it trips

A closed valve becomes a real-time alert and a status change on the dashboard — not something a site team discovers days later, or a tenant reports first.

The whole portfolio, one view

Every valve across every site on a single live dashboard, with routing by site, region, team and time, plus a timestamped record for audit and post-incident review.

Built to roll out

CE-certified, no rewiring, multi-year battery and low installed cost — engineered so a pilot scales to thousands of valves without maintenance overhead stalling it.

We do not replace your valves or your plumbing. We retrofit a low-power sensor to each one, read the moment it changes state, and put every valve across the estate on a single live view.

Automatic and smart water shut-off valves do one job well: when a leak or abnormal flow is found, they close the supply and stop the water. The gap is not the valve — it is knowing, across a whole portfolio, which valves have closed, where and when. On an estate of hundreds of units that signal usually never leaves the building.

We close that gap with a retrofit sensor fitted to the valve you already have. The valve closing is a clear change of state, and the sensor reads that state directly. Because it reads the physical state rather than the valve's own network, it works the same whether a unit talks ZigBee, LoRaWAN or nothing at all — so a mixed estate of different makes lands on one consistent feed.

The instant a valve trips, that event is pushed as a real-time alert and the valve's status updates on a live dashboard. Routing is shaped around how the estate is run — by site, region, team, time of day and out-of-hours cover — and escalated if it is not acknowledged, so a closed valve reaches a person rather than sitting unseen until a tenant calls.

It is built for retrofit and for scale. Sensors are CE-certified, low-cost to install with no rewiring, and designed for multi-year battery life, so maintenance overhead does not kill a rollout before it reaches the whole estate. The same architecture runs a single building pilot or thousands of valves across a national portfolio, with the audit trail intact throughout.

This is a visibility and alerting layer that strengthens the shut-off regime you already have. It complements your valves, plumbing design and insurance obligations on a best-endeavours basis; it does not replace them, and it does not control the valve.

01

The blind estate

Hundreds of shut-off valves, and no way to see which have closed.

Operators fit automatic shut-off valves site by site, then lose sight of them. Across a portfolio there is rarely a single place that shows which valves have tripped, where and when — so a closed valve can go unnoticed until someone reports the consequences.

02

Silent trip to instant alert

A valve closing should reach a person, not stay in the building.

When a valve changes state, that event is captured and pushed as a real-time alert — routed by site, team, timing and escalation path — so the right people act on it instead of finding out later.

03

Portfolio visibility

One live view across every site and every make.

A single dashboard brings a mixed estate of valves onto one consistent feed, with status, history and a timestamped record that holds up for audit, claims and review.

Deployment route

From a blind estate to every valve on one dashboard

A practical route from estate brief to live monitoring — covering the valves already fitted, sensor retrofit, alert routing, dashboard setup and portfolio rollout.

The process is specific to shut-off valve monitoring: understand the estate and the kit in place, fit the retrofit sensors, configure how trips are alerted, prove it in the field, then scale across the portfolio.

Discuss

Map the estate: number of sites and valves, the makes already fitted, who needs to know when one trips and how cover works out of hours.

Estate brief

Survey

Profile the sites and valve locations, sensor mounting, gateway placement and the RF conditions across the buildings.

Site profile

Retrofit

Fit the low-power sensors to the existing valves with no rewiring, and configure dashboard views, alert routes and escalation rules.

Sensors fitted

Prove

Run a controlled pilot to confirm trips are captured, alerts arrive and route correctly, and the dashboard reflects true valve status.

Pilot proven

Scale

Roll the monitoring layer out across the portfolio, with status, alerting, reporting and the audit trail built in.

Estate rollout

Managing shut-off valves across student accommodation, hotels, pub chains or a multi-site portfolio?

Book a site survey

Where it applies

Built for portfolios where one missed trip becomes a flood

Student accommodation

High-occupancy blocks where a single missed trip can flood multiple rooms before anyone is on site.

Hotels and pub chains

Multi-site operators who fit shut-off valves widely but have no central view of which have closed.

Facilities management

FM teams running shut-off valves across client portfolios, contractors and escalation paths from one feed.

Build-to-rent and landlords

Multi-site residential estates where water damage is a leading and repeatable insurance cost.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is smart water shut-off valve monitoring?

It is a retrofit sensing layer for the automatic shut-off valves already fitted across your sites: a low-power sensor reads the physical state of each valve, so the moment one closes the event becomes a real-time alert and a status change on one live dashboard.

Does it work with the valves we already have?

Yes. The sensor reads the valve's physical change of state rather than its own network, so it works across mixed makes and models — whether a unit talks ZigBee, LoRaWAN or nothing at all, the whole estate lands on one consistent feed.

How do we find out when a valve trips?

The instant a valve closes, the event is pushed as a real-time alert routed by site, region, team and time of day, with escalation if it is not acknowledged — so a closed valve reaches a person instead of waiting for a tenant to call.

Does installation require rewiring?

No. The sensors are CE-certified, battery-powered and fit to existing valves without rewiring, with multi-year battery life designed to keep maintenance overhead low across a large rollout.

Can it scale across a multi-site portfolio?

Yes. The same architecture runs a single-building pilot or thousands of valves across a national portfolio, with every valve on one dashboard and a timestamped audit trail throughout.

Does the system control or close the valve?

No. It is a visibility and alerting layer that strengthens the shut-off regime you already have: it reads valve state and alerts people, and it does not operate the valve or replace your plumbing design and insurance obligations.
