Water sensor
Hi Folks, I would like to put a water sensor in a dry well that would
indicate if there's water in the well. There would be either an audio or visual warning light or sound. Does anyone know of any products available? Thanks Dick |

Or go to the hardware store and buy a sump pump switch, and hook whatever you want to it. Bob |

Take a Dc Battery and run a positive wire to a float...throw it in the well...take a negative lead off the other side of the battery and attach it to a steel plate above the float...water comes in lifts the float against the plate and you have a completed circut. Throw a light bulb or a buzzer inside the circut and "Bob's yer uncle" ........a cool home made switch... Tada! ..Thanks..I'm here all week! Jimi |
