Alerts that exist
Short, plain-English messages. Pressure and power alerts only use readings that are calibrated or field-checked. A missing reading is never treated as "pump off".
- No recent dataYour monitor has not sent a reading for a while. This is often a Wi-Fi, cellular, or power issue at the monitor, not the well.
- Low water pressureSystem pressure dropped below the level set for your site. Only verified pressure readings can trigger this.
- Pump turning on and off oftenThe pump started more times in an hour than is usual for your site. Frequent starts can wear a pump and often point to a pressure tank or leak issue.
- Pump running a long timeThe pump has run without stopping longer than usual. This can mean heavy use, a leak, or a pump that cannot keep up.
- Power problem at the pumpThe verified voltage at the pump circuit dropped very low while the monitor was still reporting, which usually means a tripped breaker or a power outage at the pump.
The same alert is not repeated more often than the repeat interval above, and it resets once the condition clears. Alerts are a heads-up, not a diagnosis.
