Water Tower Level Measurement

		Water towers play a vital role in both rural and urban communities. In rural communities, water towers release stored water in times of peak demand, drought or during power outages when electrical pumps can no longer bring fresh water to homes and farms. In urban communities, water towers release water for everyday utilization as well as provide a reserve for fire containment in large metropolitan high-rises and high-density districts. Urban safety for fire prevention relies upon pressure from fire hydrants; however, during peak usage conventional pumps may not provide enough pressure to reach such heights. Water towers provide an alternative storage option to tackle this problem by utilizing gravity feed to develop requisite pressure to fulfill these purposes. In addition, water towers reduce demand for electricity, as pumps do not need to constantly cycle to provide fresh water.
