that refills the tank when the l iquid reaches the lower threshold
while turning off the pump when the l iquid reaches the upper
level. In many ways, the sustainability of accessible water
resources is increasingly a major problem, particularly at
Cataingan National High School. This issue is caused by
inefficient water allocation, wasteful consumption, and a lack
of proper and integrated water management.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
3. Water is of the utmost importance at Cataingan National High
School since it can be used for cleaning, watering plants,
washing hands, and so on. As a result, efficient usage and water
monitoring are possible constraints for a household or school
water management system. Furthermore, the most frequent
technique of level management for school appliances is to
simply start the feed pump at a low level and leave it to run
until a greater water level is achieved in the water tank.
This water level control system monitors, controls, and maintains
the water level in the tank, ensuring a constant supply of water
around the clock without the stress of having to go turn faucet

off leading to unnecessary water waste in school toilets and
sinks when overflowed. I t will also benefit the community to
save and manage water that can also help to lessen the water

As the world' s population continues

to grow,
it a sc arc e
resource in many regions. Although we l ive on a planet f i l led
with water, only a very small percentage is safe and usable for
human consumption ( Bensen, D. ( 2022 ) . In such circumstances,
it is essential to use water judiciously and minimize wastage.
One way to achieve this is by using a solar- powered electronic
water level controller.
The primary purpose of this project is to develop a water level
controller that uses solar power to conserve water.
PROJECT PURPOSE
9. The system works by measuring the water level in a container
and automatically controlling the f low of water. I t uses sensors
to detect the water level and a microcontroller to control the
water pump. The solar panel provides the necessary power for
the system, making it a sustainable solution.
The solar- powered electronic water level controller

promoting sustainability. I t is particularly useful in areas where
water is scarce or expensive. With this system, users can
monitor and control the water level in the container efficiently,
preventing overflows or empty container.
PROJECT PURPOSE
10. This ensures that water is used effectively and efficiently,
reducing the overall consumption of water.
In addition to promoting water conservation, this project also
has the potential to promote sustainable development. By using
solar power, the system reduces reliance on non- renewable
energy sources and helps mitigate the effects of climate
change. I t also provides an alternative to traditional water level
control systems that rely on electricity or fossil fuels.
Thus, the solar- powered electronic water level controller is a
project that serves a vital purpose. I t promotes water
conservation, sustainability, and efficient resource use.
PROJECT PURPOSE
11. By developing and implementing such a system, we can
contribute towards a more sustainable future and ensure that
we use our resources wisely.
