SwitchFlo on video
Still checking your water tank manually?
0:42 Published
Most homes still check the tank the same way: climb up, look in, come back down, guess. The guess is what causes the trouble, because a motor started on a wrong guess either runs dry or overflows.
SwitchFlo replaces the climb with a reading. The controller knows the level continuously, so it can start and stop the motor on the level itself rather than on somebody remembering to look.
What happens in this clip
- 1 The routine as it stands today: up to the terrace, lid off, look in.
- 2 Why the guess goes wrong, in both directions.
- 3 The same tank with a SwitchFlo controller reading it continuously.
- 4 The level on the phone, checked without leaving the room.
