| CWI | CWF 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 weeks.
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.
Features of the Container Irrigation System
How The Container Irrigation System Works The CWI resercoir is filled by hand every 1-4 weeks (2-4 weeks interior, 1-3 weeks exterior). 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
