Hello
I live in a house and have two wells. The first one is high up and I have good water pressure from it but in summer it runs out. The second one has never run out of water yet but I have low pressure so I have to have a hydrophore. The hydrophore is old, it gets old, it takes up space and it doesn't give me the same good pressure as the first well. Everything is interconnected so that when the pressure drops due to lack of water it automatically switches to the hydrophore. The idea is to use a pump placed in this second well instead of the hydrophore, which will pump water (through the same pipes with which the water is connected) not to the tank at home but to the first well. The idea is, of course, to fully automate it, as I would walk around and control the water level in the tanks, which is no problem to do. The problem is that I don't know if it's possible to do something like this at all without using additional pipes, because I dug new pipes not long ago and digging again is rather out of the question. What I would need is a water presence sensor which would give a signal to some kind of pump supply controller when there is no water. Only then would the pressure in the pipes automatically rise and the sensor would be flooded and cut off power to the pump, so the controller would have to work in such a way that after receiving a single signal from the sensor, it would apply voltage to the pump for, say, 30 minutes. I know it's a bit complicated but if it's only possible to do something like this then thanks in advance for your help.
