Yes, Zooz often links to my drivers as their "advanced" driver which is fine by me. Here is my post for it: [DRIVER] Zooz ZAC36 Titan Water Valve Actuator
And Yes, the "Inverse Switch Report" option may do what you are looking for. It almost sounds like HA is not properly supporting the "Valve" capability, which has an open/close status. So you are using the switch state instead. The on/off status by default is when the Actuator is OFF the value is open. Since it is a water shut-off actuator this logically makes sense, that when you Activate (turn on) the motor it closes the water valve. Long story short, if you change that one setting it will flip it so that ON = Open.
