DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF AUTOMATED WATER LEVEL MONITORING SYSTEM

The problem with the availability and use of water varies from poor source of good water to inefficient utilization. However, the efficient use of water and its monitoring during pumping are potential constraints for industries and the home. Before the modern use of the elevated tank in the buildings, the buckets and gallons were the only means used to store water after being extracted from the stream or well. The evolution in water management has led to the production of elevated tanks as a medium of water reservoir. Today, in all homes, elevated tanks are used to store water, so it is readily available. As the need for a continuous supply of food became a major concern, farmers began to adopt an irrigation farming system that ensures that plants are constantly receiving water even in the dry season. Initially, they use the water-can to manually water the plants every morning and afternoon, as the case may be. Originally, stream and river were their only source of water, but as the tendency in the use of the overhead tank arose, they gradually adopted it, reducing the hectic routine of visiting the stream every time they want to water the plants. The increase in the use of elevated tanks resulted in the invention of a water pumping machine that would pump the water from the well to the upper tank, making it readily available to the user.
