Aqara T1 Valve Controller – Ultimate Flood Protection (Zigbee 3.0)

A burst water pipe, a leaking washing machine, or a gas leak can cause catastrophic, expensive damage to your home in a matter of minutes. The motorized Aqara T1 Valve Controller is a revolutionary smart device that physically straps onto your existing lever-style ball valves. It grants you the power to remotely open or close your main water or gas supply lines directly from your smartphone, no matter where you are in the world.

The Ultimate Smart Home Safeguard

The valve controller showcases its true power when paired with smart leak detectors (such as the Aqara Water Leak Sensor). You can create an impenetrable automated defense system: If the sensor beneath your sink detects a puddle of water, the smart hub instantly commands the T1 controller to physically turn the lever and shut off the main water valve. This automated reaction happens in seconds, saving your property from ruin even while you are asleep or on vacation.

Plumber-Free, Wire-Free Installation

The genius of this device lies in its non-invasive installation. Using an adjustable metal clamp, the motor simply brackets onto the outside of the pipe and grips the original metal lever handle. You do not need to cut any pipes, drain the system, or hire an expensive plumber! Furthermore, the entire motor operates on 4 standard AA batteries. This completely eliminates the need for an electrician to run a power outlet down to your basement plumbing.

Compatibility and Voice Control

Operating on the robust Zigbee 3.0 network, the controller is incredibly energy efficient, allowing the AA batteries to last up to an impressive 2 years under normal usage. When paired with an Aqara Hub, the device becomes fully compatible with the world’s leading smart home ecosystems. You can command your water supply to shut off using your voice via Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, or Amazon Alexa.
