True Wireless Valve

True Wireless Valve from Uhome offers a completely wireless experience while operating on battery power and reducing installation complexity, cost, and safety concerns. Additionally, True Wireless Valve enables smart monitoring of a manually operated valve. Its seamless integration with Home Assistant and compatibility with the Zigbee protocol overcomes limitations often found in other water management devices, offering you more flexibility and control.

Simple, Convenient, Safe, and Broadly Compatible

True Wireless Convenience: True Wireless Valve demonstrates the power of wireless technology. Being battery-powered, it eliminates the need for additional wiring, offering a true wireless solution that integrates effortlessly into your home environment. This design makes installation easier and eliminates risks associated with high-voltage connections.

Smart Home Integration: Specifically designed with Home Assistant (ZHA) users in mind, True Wireless Valve also supports Zigbee2MQTT integration. It excels at providing real-time feedback and displaying the current status of the valve, whether you operate it manually or through the web interface.

Manual Operation With Monitoring: True Wireless Valve supports manual operation through a conventional handle, similar to standard valves. This allows for immediate, hands-on control when needed. Simultaneously, True Wireless Valve maintains smart functionality by consistently relaying its status back to the hub. This integration with Home Assistant ensures that users receive up-to-date feedback, blending traditional reliability with modern convenience in home automation systems.

Ball-Valve & Clamp Versions Available

The ball-valve version caters to those who favor a more conventional integration with their plumbing systems. This model, which involves replacing your current manual valve, is available in dimensions DN15 (1/2") and DN20 (3/4") with NPT (National Pipe Taper) threading, and DN20 (3/4") with BSP (British Standard Pipe) threading. Installation may require professional assistance to ensure optimal performance and safety.

The clamp version is specifically designed for ease of use, as it can be directly attached to your existing plumbing without the need for professional plumbing services or the removal of the existing valve. This setup allows for straightforward installation and immediate integration into smart home systems. The clamp version is available in DN20 (3/4") and DN25 (1") dimensions.

Battery Powered

True Wireless Valve runs on four AAA batteries for up to two years or can be continuously powered by a USB Type-C power supply. Either way, you will not need expensive, complicated home wiring to operate True Wireless Valve.

Smart-Home Integration

True Wireless Valve is designed primarily for residential use and is easy to integrate with Home Assistant (ZHA) and Zigbee2MQTT users. When paired with leak detectors, True Wireless Valve can also enhances home water safety by responding automatically to potential leaks¹. This functionality is a great way to prevent water damage, especially in homes where regular, in-person monitoring might not always be possible.
