I fixed my plumbing mistake with computers

This annoying problem only happened once or twice a year but seemed like a great opportunity to learn.

I have been wanting to learn Home assistant and ESP home for a long time and decided to fix this annoying issue as my first project!

I used 2 ESP32s, a 0-10V proportional ball valve and an NTC temp probe. I wanted to measure the outside ground temp to decide when to turn on the ball valve just enough to trickle the water before the ground gets to freezing temperature. Easier ways to do it but I learned a lot more doing it this way. 3D printed the enclosures with a Bambu lab X1 Carbon and modeled Fusion 360.
