In many households across India, water is pumped into overhead tanks using electric motors. In the absence of automatic shut-off systems or proper monitoring, these motors are often left running even after the tank becomes full. As a result, excess water continuously overflows from the tank for extended periods., This overflow often goes unnoticed, especially in multi-storey buildings where the tank is not easily visible. In some cases, residents rely on guessing or timing instead of actively checking the water level. This leads to frequent and significant water wastage on a daily basis., The problem is more serious in areas already facing water scarcity. Wasted water not only increases utility bills but also puts pressure on limited groundwater resources. Additionally, prolonged overflow can cause structural damage such as damp walls, seepage, and weakening of building materials., Despite being a common and recurring issue in both urban and semi-urban areas, it is largely ignored and continues to contribute to large-scale resource wastage.
