FAQ

What is WET Stake?
WET Stake is a water detection device that notifies you via phone call or text when water reaches it in a flood irrigation field. It helps you know exactly when to change your water without constant checking.
How does it work?
Simply turn on the device, place it where you want to detect water, and when water reaches the sensors it will call or text your linked phone number. To set up or change your phone number, just text the device ID (shown on the device) to the number provided.
