Depending on your location relative to your water utility, it might take several seconds for the pressure wave from turning on your faucet to propagate backwards to them at its measly 1.5km/s. With our new ultra-low-latency smart faucet technology, that delay is reduced to tens of milliseconds! It could be faster, but we have to route all traffic through our cloud servers for analytics purposes.
