Valvula aquavalve 3 6mm autopot

AQUAvalve is a totally intelligent system that forces the plant to consume all the water and nutrients available to it before supplying more.

This means that plants experience the wet/dry cycle just as they do in nature, ensuring optimal results.

How to use

When the tank is full of water and the relevant liquid fertilisers have been added, they will start to flow down the pipe from the tank, through the nozzle of the AQUAvalve and into the tray.

Once the tray is filled with water, air will be trapped in the main body and around the “inner float”, causing it to rise, and release the air trapped in the main body. This will cause the “inner float” to rise and interrupt the supply. The water level will have reached 20 mm.

The potted plants in the tray will begin to lower the water level, which will cause the “top float” to close, creating a vacuum inside the main body of the AQUAvalve. This vacuum traps the water inside the main body, keeping the “inner float” raised and cut off from the water supply.

When the water level has dropped completely, the surface tension around the main body of the AQUAvalve will be relieved, which can take up to 30 minutes. Then all the water trapped in the main body, holding the “inner float” up and the water supply cut off will be released, causing the “inner float” to lower and the water supply to open.
