An AquaValve is a component used in hydroponic irrigation systems, particularly in Autopot systems. It is a patented valve that automatically controls the water supply to a plant's roots, providing water as and when needed. The valve is designed to work with gravity-fed systems and does not require any electricity or pumps.
The AquaValve is installed in the base of a plant pot, and when the water level in the pot drops below a certain level, the valve opens to allow water to flow into the pot until the water level reaches a set level. This ensures that the plants receive the correct amount of water and nutrients they need, without the risk of overwatering or underwatering.
In addition to the valve, Autopot systems also use a range of other components, including trays, pots, and tubing, to provide a complete, self-contained hydroponic growing system that is easy to set up and use.
The Autopot Aqua Valve 5 Silicone Bottom Float is another optional accessory for the Autopot Aqua Valve irrigation system. Unlike the top float, which sits on top of the valve, the bottom float is installed inside the valve mechanism and helps regulate the flow of water in the system.
The bottom float is made from high-quality silicone and is designed to fit the 5mm inlet and outlet of the Aqua Valve. It is easy to install and remove, and is resistant to wear and tear.
The main function of the bottom float is to ensure that the Aqua Valve maintains a consistent water level in the reservoir or water tank. As the water level in the tank drops, the bottom float falls, opening the valve and allowing water to flow into the pot. As the water level in the tank rises, the bottom float rises with it, closing the valve and stopping the flow of water. This helps to prevent under-watering and ensures that the plants receive a consistent supply of water at all times.
The bottom float is particularly useful for gardeners who are using the Autopot Aqua Valve system to grow plants in large or deep containers, as it helps to ensure that the water level is maintained even when the tank is partially empty. It is also useful for gardeners who are growing plants in areas with fluctuating water pressure, as it helps to regulate the flow of water in the system.
