Flow Meter Auto Shutoff for Low Flow

post by davidgehrer on Jun 24, 2025

Would like to have Auto shut off enabled for low flow rates. My primary use case for purchasing the flow meter (and the Rachio controller) was to protect my well pump. Current state is that the Controller will ONLY alert for low flow but not pause/stop watering.

Looking at the screenshot of the app below, Auto shut off is available for high flow only.

I envision it working like this -

I should be able to set a threshold of what a low flow is (can do this currently) but also configure how long a low flow condition exists before watering is paused.

I.e. controller is reporting a flow between 0.0 and 7.4 for > 5 minutes, stop watering.
