BetterLiving is a remote property monitoring system designed to help you stay connected to the systems that matter most. The platform currently includes five monitoring modules: Farm Water, Residential Water, Containment, Presence and Power.

Depending on your setup, BetterLiving can monitor:

• Water tank levels
• Pump operation
• Trough water levels
• Bore and metered water flow
• Electric fence status
• Gate status
• Unexpected presence and property activity
• Power outages and restoration

BetterLiving also supports remote control of selected equipment, including valves and pumps.

BetterLiving devices communicate using LoRaWAN, a long-range, low-power wireless technology designed for remote monitoring. Devices send data to a BetterLiving gateway, which connects to the internet via your existing Wi-Fi network or a 4G connection.

Depending on terrain and installation, devices can communicate with the gateway from distances of more than 5 kilometres.
