An intelligent system that automatically cuts power to the pump upon detecting leaks or float jams, and provides a backup high-water cutoff to prevent overflow.
“A homeowner or well system operator needs a device that automatically cuts electrical power to a well pump in the event of a water leak from the pressure tank or supply line.”
“Sump pump float occasionally gets stuck and fails to activate the pump, requiring manual intervention.”
Smartphone app guiding homeowners through well pump diagnostics, from priming issues to pressure problems. Uses symptom-based checklists and sensor input via phone microphone/light to pinpoint root causes.
“After replacing a well pump and multiple components, the water pressure still won't exceed 20 PSI, and the user cannot diagnose the root cause.”
“User needs to know if a well pump requires manual priming after running dry and how to do it.”
An app that remotely controls irrigation pumps and diagnoses well pump issues like short cycling and variable pressure. It offers affordable constant pressure management without expensive hardware.
“Private well owner needs to automate irrigation zone sequencing to prevent pump burnout from running multiple zones simultaneously or continuously without dry-run protection.”
“Unable to maintain prime and water pressure in a shallow sand point well, suspecting a pinhole leak despite sealing joints.”
Unable to maintain prime and water pressure in a shallow sand point well, suspecting a pinhole leak despite sealing joints.
Private well owner needs to automate irrigation zone sequencing to prevent pump burnout from running multiple zones simultaneously or continuously without dry-run protection.
Water hammer effect and old check valve causing loud noises and potential damage in a residential well water system.
Seasonal hydrogen sulfide in well water causes odor in showers, and current carbon filter solution drastically reduces water flow rate.
Homeowner on well system loses water pressure in the house after using a yard hydrant, requiring pump reset to restore pressure.
User needs to remotely control an irrigation pump located far from the house, to avoid manual daily trips.
User needs to know if a well pump requires manual priming after running dry and how to do it.
Homeowner with a dug well at a cabin needs a way to easily winterize and prime the pump system each year, but a low point in the water line 50' from the house makes full drainage difficult.
Residential well pump short cycling causes inconsistent water pressure and requires troubleshooting of pressure tank, check valve, or other system components.
User is concerned about leaving the spigot open 24/7 to supply a WiFi water timer, fearing constant pressure may damage the valve.
Long wait time for hot water in master bathroom, unclear if existing recirculation plumbing is correct for two-tank series setup.
A well water user wants constant water pressure but has variable pressure due to pressure switch cycling between low and high settings.
Clogging of sink and shower valves in a cabin at the end of a village water line, despite same water source upstream having no issue.
Sump pump float occasionally gets stuck and fails to activate the pump, requiring manual intervention.
Homeowner with large 23-zone irrigation system struggles to schedule deep, infrequent watering within optimal early morning window without splitting across multiple days.
New homeowner with well water system can't identify which filter needs changing and lacks reliable guidance on maintenance and upgrades.
A homeowner cannot determine why their water meter shows intermittent water flow and receives leak alerts despite no visible signs of a leak, and feels shamed by the utility provider's comparative usage reports.
Without main piping, the only way to avoid a mess when working on the well is to drain it, and the pump cannot be pulled because it may be hard piped.
Need to identify equivalent premium water well tanks to avoid poor quality bladder that fails prematurely
Rural resident needs a fail-safe high water level cutoff switch for borehole pump to prevent overflow when primary float switch fails.
