Water Leak Control System and Device

A leak control device for leak detection and prevention, comprising:

• a first flow control assembly, comprising
• a first valve;
• and
• a first flow sensor;
• wherein the first flow control assembly is configured to connect to a first water supply line between a first initial segment and a first secondary segment of the first water supply line, such that the first flow sensor is configured to measure a first flow of water through the first flow control assembly of the leak control device;
• wherein the leak control device is configured to close the first valve, to stop the first flow of the water through the first flow control assembly of the leak control device, if the leak control device detects a first flow anomaly condition of the first flow control assembly in communication with the first flow sensor;
• and
• a second flow control assembly, comprising
• a second valve;
• and
• a second flow sensor;
• wherein the second flow control assembly is configured to connect to a second water supply line between a second initial segment and a second secondary segment of the second water supply line, such that the second flow sensor is configured to measure a second flow of water through the second flow control assembly of the leak control device;
• wherein the leak control device is configured to close the second valve, to stop the second flow of the water through the second flow control assembly of the leak control device, if the leak control device detects a second flow anomaly condition of the second flow control assembly in communication with the second flow sensor.

A leak control method for leak detection and prevention, comprising:

• a) installing a leak control device on a plumbing fixture;
• and
• b) measuring an actual flow duration of water flow events in communication with a flow sensor of the leak control device,
• such that if the actual flow duration exceeds a predetermined maximum flow duration, the leak control device sets a flow anomaly condition and close a valve of the leak control device automatically;
• wherein the leak control device comprises:
• a flow control assembly, comprising
• the valve;
• and
• the flow sensor;
• wherein the flow control assembly is configured to connect to a water supply line between an initial segment and a secondary segment of the water supply line, such that the flow sensor is configured to measure a flow of water through the flow control assembly of the leak control device;
• wherein the leak control device is configured to close the valve, to stop the flow of the water through the flow control assembly of the leak control device, if the leak control device detects the flow anomaly condition in communication with the flow sensor.
