You could also add a water detector too. Think about what would happen if
the power went out when the sump pump was needed most...

Ok, you lost me on this one. What good is a water detector to tell
me the power is out and the sump pump runs on electricity?

you can fire up the generator to run the sump to tell the wi-fi HWH to
beep ya to wake up from the CO caused by the generator and .....
actually a clean burning HWH should not be putting out any CO ... enough
combustion air and blue flame, you have to work at it to get into
trouble, everyone gets a Darwin participation trophy.

Let's you turn off the water to the water heater or furnace, whichever
one is leaking.


Oooooooh ok, thanks!
