Step 7: Add to WiFi

Now that you are connected to the unit, you can add it to your WiFi network to allow for internet connectivity.

3. Cut the pipe to just shorter than the tank height, we recommend 10cm.
4. Add the weight to the bottom of the pipe.
5. Lower the pipe into the water, ensuring it is slightly off the bottom (due to being slightly shorter).
