I agree that you need a water shut off system. But, if you're cheap, like me, you can buy about 7 or 8 battery operated water alarms and place them under toilets and sinks, and other water valves, all for about 20 dollars from Amazon. For me, they have detected 2 leaks in my house that have prevented major water damage. One was a leak in the garbage disposal and the other was a leak in the water heater expansion tank. A great investment for inexpensive peace of mind.
