Provided is an apparatus for regulating water flow to a structure. The apparatus generally comprises an electrically operated valve, sensors for temperature and flow-rate, and a module for communication. The remotely controllable shutoff valve contains a battery backup to provide power in case of an electrical outage. The apparatus is installed downstream from a structure's main water valve, shutting off the water supply according to a schedule that can be programmed into a controller, or smart-home hub.
