Smart faucet aims to reduce the wastage of water that happened in the bathroom while using a solar water heater for a bath. It also prevents the hot water scalds due to high temperature in showers and hot water taps. It controls the hot water temperature by mixing required cold water to bring down to user-defined temperature. Users can set the temperature value in the control unit and switch it either by the switch or by using the mobile application using IoT. It takes time to reach hot water in tap from solar water heater due to long pipeline connections. So much water is wasted and time too. Users can switch the unit and make it ready for use before entering the bathroom by using the mobile application. Unless Coldwater stored in the hot water pipeline is underground water storage for recycling. Smart faucet uses NodeMCU as a controller, temperature sensor, motorized ball valves, solenoid valves, temperature knob and relays for switching the solenoid valves. NodeMCU is incorporated with the android application called ‘Blynk’. It receives and sends data to NodeMCU so that the user can monitor all the parameters like flow rate, temperature, the quantity of water used and control th
