Low flow shutoff
post by mbushardjr on May 24, 2022
Hello,
I was thinking it might be nice to have an auto shutoff feature should the flow meter detect low flow. I know there is an alert, but I’d like to have the system shutdown also like it does for high flow.
Use case if pipe leaks/bursts before the flow meter.
Thank you.

That would be great for sure. I am on the well and very often running low on flow. Ideally having an irrigation pause would be the solution to the issues ppl are having.

I am surprised this is not yet implemented. I too would like an option to pause my well in the event of low flow. Protecting my pump was my primary use case for purchasing the flow meter.

I agree, that would be nice. I do not have a pump, but my pressurized irrigation filter gets clogged up way too often. I do not have a flow meter to see how all that works though. It seems like it should have a too low level in addition to a too high level. Maybe it does an alarm and not shutoff?

Correct, the app will alert but not shut off for low flow. There is an option to shut off for high flow.
