Abstract
A temperature monitoring apparatus includes a temperature sensor and a control circuit. The temperature sensor detects a temperature of a piping system, such as a temperature of water in the piping system. The control circuit includes one or more processors and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the control circuit to determine whether water in the piping system is expected to freeze based on the indication of the temperature, predict whether a valve tripping event is expected to occur based on determining that the water in the piping system is expected to freeze, and in response to predicting that the valve tripping event is expected to occur, provide a prediction that the valve tripping event is expected to occur for remedial action.
