Know Your Well Depth and Avoid Costly Repairs

Fixing a well is quick, easy, and cheap...Said no one, ever.

California is getting drier and drier. Monitoring your ground water is essential to ensure you make it through next season. Did you also know that running your pump with insufficient water can severely damage the pump and possibly melt your well casing?!

You might not even know you're doing it.

Take a look below at the readout from the Well Bubbler, AV's newest partner in well-monitoring and water management: 

The water in this well drops down to 240 feet and then sucks air for 36 hours! If the farmer continues to over-draft the well like this, he/she may need to make major repairs to his/her well...most likely in the middle of the growing season.  

The Well Bubbler allows you to set up alerts if your pump starts overdrafting the well, saving you costly repairs and prolonging the life of your pump. 

The Well Bubbler uses a flexible airline to cheaply and effectively monitor your well. There's no risk of clogging your pump with a metal transducer and less noise than with an acoustic sensor. 

The Well Bubbler can easily be paired with a flow meter, pressure sensor, and pump-power sensor. Monitor your well from your mobile device or computer. Receive real-time alerts if water levels or flow rates reach critical levels.

The Well Bubbler can also be integrated into valve automation systems including Ranch Systems and Wiseconn.
