Water Problems Are Expensive Problems

Most people don't know something's wrong until it's already a crisis.

Surprise Empty Tanks

You discover the cistern is dry when you turn on the faucet and nothing comes out. Emergency water deliveries are stressful and expensive.

$200 – $400 per delivery

Burned-Out Pumps

Pumps that run dry overheat and fail. Replacement costs thousands, and your property has no water until it's fixed.

$1,500 – $3,000 to replace

Slow Leaks Go Unnoticed

A slow leak can waste hundreds of gallons before anyone notices. Underground leaks are especially hard to detect without monitoring.

What Our Customers Say

Real stories from real Well Watcher users.

"We have a vacation home in Oaxaca that sits empty for months at a time. Last year we burned out a pump and didn't find out until we arrived for Christmas — no water for two days. Since installing The Well Watcher, I get a WhatsApp message the second anything looks off. Already saved us once when a neighbour accidentally left a hose running connected to our line."
David & Karen Mitchell
Vacation Home — Oaxaca, Mexico
"I manage three Airbnb properties on tank water. Before The Well Watcher, I was driving out to physically check levels every week. Now I just glance at the dashboard over coffee. Had a guest leave a tap running overnight once — got the low-level alert at 3 AM, called the caretaker, and the guests never even knew there was a problem."
Sarah Thornton
Airbnb Host, 3 Properties — Daylesford, Australia
"Honestly, the thing that sold me was the automatic pump shutoff. We're on a well and had already replaced one pump — that was a $2,400 lesson. Installation took about 45 minutes and the e-ink display is a nice touch. My wife likes that she can just walk past it and see the level without pulling out her phone."
Marc-André Pelletier
Rural Homeowner — Lanaudière, Quebec

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about The Well Watcher.

The Well Watcher requires a WiFi connection for cloud dashboard access and WhatsApp alerts. However, the on-site e-ink display and automatic pump protection work independently of WiFi. If your internet goes down, the device continues monitoring and protecting your pump locally. A cellular connectivity option is planned for properties without WiFi.
The standard sensor measures depths up to 5 meters (about 16 feet), which covers most residential cisterns and wells. For deeper installations, extended-range sensors are available. The system is configurable for any cistern shape and dimensions — cylindrical, rectangular, or irregular.
Most installations take under an hour. You mount the main enclosure near your pump, run the sensor cable to your cistern, connect power, and enter your WiFi credentials. No special tools or electrical knowledge required for basic setups. For pump protection wiring, a basic understanding of your pump circuit is helpful — we provide detailed guides and support.
The Well Watcher continues to monitor, protect your pump, and display status on the e-ink screen — all without internet. When connectivity returns, it automatically reconnects and resumes sending data to the cloud. You won't miss any alerts for conditions that persist after reconnection.
No. Alerts come through WhatsApp, which you probably already have. The cloud dashboard is a regular website — just open it in any browser. The local dashboard on the device is also accessed through your browser. There's nothing to download or keep updated.
Yes. Each Well Watcher unit reports to the cloud dashboard, so you can monitor multiple properties from one place. Whether you have two vacation homes or twenty rental units, you'll see all of them in a single view with alerts routed to the right people.
Yes. All communications are encrypted. The admin panel is password-protected. API access requires authentication. Your data is stored securely and is only accessible to you. We don't sell or share your information.
The Well Watcher comes with a 1-year hardware warranty covering manufacturing defects. We stand behind the quality of our product and will replace any unit that fails under normal operating conditions. Extended warranty options are available upon request.
We ship worldwide. The system works with both 110V and 220V power supplies, making it compatible with electrical systems in virtually every country. Contact us for shipping quotes to your location.
Absolutely. The Well Watcher has an open REST API that returns JSON data for all sensor readings and system status. This makes it straightforward to integrate with Home Assistant, Zapier, custom scripts, or any platform that can make HTTP requests. We provide documentation and examples to get you started.

Stop Worrying About Your Water.

Always watching. Always protecting. Get started with The Well Watcher today and never be caught off guard again.
