Before you get started

Common questions.

Can't see your question? Contact Flowmere.

Can Guardian connect to our existing pump stations?

Usually, yes. We assess your controller, sensors and available signals first, then confirm the connection method and which functions each station will have.

Can we monitor a station without enabling remote control?

Yes. Monitoring and control are separate, so a station can be set up for monitoring only. Remote control needs the right station setup and authorised users.

What equipment and internet connection are needed?

The Guardian unit connects your controller or signals to Guardian, using existing site internet or a cellular connection. We confirm any extra hardware, sensors and coverage during the site assessment.

What happens when the connection drops out?

Guardian flags the lost connection so old readings aren't mistaken for current ones. Where offline recording is installed, the Guardian unit stores readings and uploads them when the connection returns.

How is Guardian priced?

Pricing depends on the number of stations, existing equipment and the functions you need. You'll get an itemised proposal covering the Guardian unit, installation and commissioning, plus any ongoing software, connectivity or support costs.

Who arranges installation, commissioning and support?

We do. We agree the scope with your team, install and commission each station, then hand over with the connected readings, approved controls and user access confirmed. The Help Centre and user guide cover day-to-day use.

Who can see or operate our stations?

Only the people you invite, each with their own account and assigned stations. Being able to view a station doesn't mean someone can operate it. Protected actions also need extra verification.

What happens after we request a demo?

Tell us your organisation, contact details, roughly how many stations you have and your timeframe. We'll be in touch to arrange a demonstration.

Let's look at your stations.
