Big news for rural Australia. X42 Monitoring is now an approved supplier to the Irrigear® network — Australia's largest group of independently owned water and irrigation specialists. That means the X42 Tank Monitor is now available through your local Irrigear store, right alongside the pumps, pipes, and irrigation gear your property already depends on.
The Partnership
Australia's Largest Water Specialist Network, Meet Australia's Simplest Tank Monitor
Irrigear® has been Australia's leading network of independent water management experts since 1987. With over 80+ stores across every state and territory — from the Lockyer Valley in Queensland to the Southern Tablelands in NSW, from regional Victoria to Western Australia - Irrigear stores are where rural Australians go when they have a serious water problem to solve.
Every Irrigear store is locally owned and operated. The people behind the counter aren't call centre staff reading from a script — they're farmers, irrigators, and water specialists who live in the same region you do, understand local conditions, and have been solving water problems in their communities for decades.
That's exactly the kind of partner X42 was looking for. And as of now, that network carries the X42 Monitoring products.

For rural Australians who've been managing their water supply by tapping the side of a tank and hoping for the best, this changes everything. The X42 Tank Starter Kit and additional sensors are now available where you already shop for your water system — no need to order online, wait for shipping, or figure it out alone.
Why It Matters
Most Rural Australians Are Still Flying Blind on Tank Levels
Ask most rural property owners how full their tank is right now, and you'll get a shrug, a guess, or "I'll go check." The typical approach — walking out to tap the side of the tank, peering at a float gauge if there is one — is imprecise, requires physical presence, and tells you nothing about how fast you're using water or how long your current supply will last.
Think about it this way: you wouldn't run a business without watching the numbers. You wouldn't manage fuel on a vehicle without a gauge. Yet most rural properties manage their most critical resource — water — from guesswork and habit.
That guesswork has consequences. Running a tank dry, means emergency water cartage, and during drought conditions, can mean waiting days or even weeks for supply. For livestock, the stakes are even higher.
Water is the single most critical resource on a rural property. Most tank problems are preventable. And now, for the first time, rural Australians can walk into their local Irrigear store and walk out with a simple, affordable solution that tells them exactly how much water they have and when they run out.
The Solution
The X42 Tank Monitor — Simple. Accurate. Built for Rural Australia.
The X42 Tank is a purpose-built water tank level monitor designed for the realities of Australian rural properties. Not a city product retrofitted to a farm. Not a subscription service that stops working if you cancel. A rugged, offline-first device solution with works with of any poly, steel or concrete tank and continuously measures your water level — no Wi-Fi required, not internet, no aps and no monthly fees.
It was designed from the ground up to work where connectivity is patchy, power is limited, and the nearest service centre is an hour's drive away. Two 2xAA batteries. No tools to install. Level data and runout predictions accessible for all family members on a display.

At RRP $389, the X42 Tank pays for itself the first time it prevents an emergency water delivery — and gives you smarter water decisions every single day after that.

More Rural Australians Will Know How Much Water They Have Left
At X42 Monitoring, our mission has always been straightforward: make water visible. Give rural Australians the same kind of simple, reliable information about their water supply that they already have about their fuel, their power, and their finances.
Until now, getting the X42 Tank meant ordering online and figuring out installation without local support. It worked — and our customers love the product — but we knew that reaching the people who need it most meant getting into the stores where rural Australia already shops for water solutions.
Irrigear is exactly that. Their stores are embedded in rural communities across Australia. Their staff understand pumps, tanks, irrigation systems, and the specific water challenges that come with Australian soil, Australian weather, and Australian distances. When an Irrigear customer asks about completing their water system, the X42 Tank is now a natural part of that conversation.
What this means for you: You can now walk into your local Irrigear store, talk to an expert who knows your region, and leave with a tank monitor that will change how you manage water on your property — for good.
With climate variability increasing across eastern and southern Australia, and dry seasons becoming longer and less predictable, knowing exactly how much water you have — and making smarter decisions based on that data — is no longer a nice-to-have. It's essential property management.
The Irrigear partnership puts that capability within reach for more rural Australians than ever before.
