Why Is My Blumat System Overwatering?Updated 2 months ago

If the system appears to be overwatering, first determine whether the sensor is actively releasing water.

A small leak anywhere in the system can cause the sensor to keep supplying water.


Once leaks are ruled out, check soil moisture and sensor calibration to confirm the set point is correct.


Step by Step Instructions:

1. Remove the 3mm line from the distribution to confirm if water is flowing.

2. Inspect fittings and tubing for leaks.

3. Measure soil moisture near the sensor.

4. Reset or recalibrate the sensor if needed.
