What you need

  • A level sensor suited to your tank (often ultrasonic)
  • An edge device with power and network
  • A place to store and view history (cloud dashboard)
  • Alerts so you do not stare at charts all day

DIY vs platform

You can log readings to a spreadsheet. A platform like WellSenseOS adds multi-device tenancy, litres conversion, days remaining, and SoftAP provisioning — see remote monitoring and the setup guide.
