| CWI | CWF Classic Container Irrigation System CWI is planter technology's container irrigation solution 
designed to be dropped into
most cylindrical and slightly tapered decorative containers, for both interior and exterior
pots and planters. The CWI uses Planter Technology's proven vacuum-sensor technology to
precisely monitor the soil moisture level, irrigating the plant only when the soil
starts to dry. It allows for extended hand-watering intervals, typically 2 to 4 weeks
for interior plants and 1 to 3 weeks for exterior plants, depending on the plant and
the surrounding conditions.
Features of the Classic Container Irrigation System
 How The Container Irrigation System Works The CWI resercoir is filled by hand every 2-3 weeks. The hole is closed with a stopper, creating a vacuum-tight closed reservoir. When the soil is dry (indicating the plants and flowers need water), the moisture sensor allows air to pass through the tube into the reservoir, allowing water to flow into the container from a series of openings in the bottom of the planting area. The water wicks up through the soil, irrigating the plants. As the soil becomes moist, the sensor (planted in the soil 1/3 to 1/2 -way down the container) absorbs water. When wet, it acts like a valve, blocking the flow of air through the tube. A vacuum is created above the reservoir, preventing further watering until the soil begins to dry. The addition of an overflow drainage adaptor allows for use of CWI in exterior applications, and prevents the drainage of irrigation water during normal use. Model Specifications
