# Watergate

> Watergate is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 31 installs sharing analytics and works locally.

Watergate is a built-in integration that connects a Watergate water control device to Home Assistant over the local network. It is set up in the UI by entering the IP address of the device. The integration provides a valve platform for controlling water flow, along with a switch for turning auto shut-off on or off. Number settings hold the duration threshold and the volume threshold for auto shut-off, and events fire when either limit triggers a shut-off. Sensors report water pressure, water temperature, water meter volume and duration, power supply mode, and uptime values for the device, MQTT and Wi-Fi.
