I have almost everything in my house HA-automated, but anything touching the water supply is all on dumb physical valves and electrical timers. If my light switches don't work, that's annoying. If a robot vacuum doesn't run, that's frustrating. If a water valve is stuck open, that's catastrophic.

Catastrophic! Calm down you're not working in a chemical plant
ever had water damage in your flat?
I wouldn't be using automated controlled water valves for anything that's not outside in the garden
