I just do not understand why people only think of this after a problem comes out. Every. Single. House. that I have owned has had a water leak. Pipe fitting burst, washing machine hose, ice maker, irrigation lines. They all have failed. No more, if I have a problem I will fix immediately and not post about it to strangers on the internet.

So you assume people only think of this after. Since our family does irrigation systems, we are WiFi connected. Cameras trigger video when certain heads are triggered, storage in cloud. There was a meter problem,. Took awhile to get it corrected.
