I got one of these tanks installed on the roof of my house

Basically this tank gets filled automatically using a float switch, however, occasionally the float switch doesn’t run due to multiple reasons and the Tank ends up empty and I get caught off guard.

I’m looking for a solution to monitor the water level inside the tank and later on I can setup an automation for alerts based on certain levels.

Having searched the sub I don’t think there are a ready devices for this specific purpose, it seems this issue is not very common.

I would appreciate any help or ideas to implement such solution, Zigbee is always preferrable in my case due to good network coverage.
