Stop watering to let well refill with sourrounding water

Product Suggestions
1

I put a deep well pump in a well on my property.
The Rachio 3 pump contact correctly powers the relay that runs the pump. BUT my well runs empty after 15min of watering. Unfortunately I haven’t found a setting that allows the pump to stop after 15 min of watering and let the well fill itself with water for 30min before running again for the next 15min max.

I’d love to have this feature in order to take full advantage of the automatic watering feature.

Hello Markus,

This is Dylan with Rachio. I will answer your request below.

We do have a delay between zones feature which could help but it would require you to run each zone no more than 15 minutes long.

Best,

Hello Dylan,

Thanks for the info.

I already have the delay between zones set up, but on automatic the water often runs much longer than the desired time and the empty well swimmer switch cuts the power to the pump while rachio still believes it is still watering.

Please add the required features to the pump connector settings.
