Abstract: A plumbing assembly includes a tank, a bowl in fluid communication with the tank, and a re-fill assembly fluidly coupled to the tank, the re-fill assembly having at least one re-fill assembly valve and being configured to control a flow of water from the tank to the bowl. The plumbing assembly also includes at least one controller operably coupled to the re-fill assembly, the at least one controller being configured to control the at least one valve within the re-fill assembly. The plumbing assembly further includes a first sensor communicably coupled to the at least one controller, the first sensor being configured to sense a water level within the bowl, wherein the at least one controller is configured to stop the flow of water responsive to the water level within the bowl satisfying a first threshold.
