Hi. Two years ago I was given such a device for testing.

> **[Water leak detector - tracing water leaks with SONIC by HERO LABS](https://www.hero-labs.com/pl/)**
>
> Save money, save the planet 🌍 and protect your home🏡. Sonic is the loveable leak detector that protects a whole home or business from leaks.

It is an advanced water valve that recognizes even a small leak in the system. Works very well. Now on github one of the users has done integration into Home assistant [GitHub - markvader/sonic\_hacs: Beta version of the Sonic integration by @markvader](https://github.com/markvader/sonic_hacs)  
Is it possible to integrate such a valve with Homey bridge having API from the valve manufacturer or use the integration that is on github? Even just a close-open option would be helpful in the event of a water leak.

I believe the Home Assistant app for Homey also supports Homey Cloud, that’s probably the only way to get this working on Homey right now.

It’s interesting to see that people are willing to trust a cloud service for devices like this. When the service is unavailable or can’t be reached, you’re risking flooding your home. I’d rather have a fully local solution, but hey, that’s just me.
