About the Web Greenhouse Pump Remote
A greenhouse pump feeds foggers, cooling pads or drip lines. This remote runs the pump for short, safe periods, shows the air humidity inside and the water left in the tank, so the pump never runs dry.
This remote runs fully in your browser, so it works on any phone or computer with no app to install. Try it now in demo mode. When you are ready, connect it to your own ESP32 or ESP8266 by Bluetooth, Wi-Fi hotspot, home Wi-Fi, USB cable or the internet. We write the Arduino code for you for each option.
How to use it
- Play with the remote in demo mode to see how it works.
- Build your device. See "What you need" below.
- Press Connect my device and pick how you want to connect. Bluetooth or Wi-Fi hotspot are the easiest.
- Press Get the code for this, upload it to your board with Arduino IDE, then connect. Now the buttons control your real device.

Ready ESP32 code
Arduino sketch for ESP32 or ESP8266, made for this remote.
5 ways to connect
Bluetooth, Wi-Fi hotspot, home Wi-Fi, USB cable or internet (MQTT).
What you need to build it
- An ESP32 board
- A sensor for your job (like DHT22, DS18B20, soil moisture or pressure sensor)
- A relay module for the output device
- A 5V power supply and an enclosure
Not ready to build? You can still use the remote in demo mode to plan your project and test the buttons.
Commands this remote sends
Over Bluetooth or a USB cable, each command is a short text line like id=value. With MQTT, it goes to your-topic/<id>/set and your device reports back on your-topic/<id>/state. On Wi-Fi, the page calls /<id>?value=… on the device.
| id | Control | Values | Direction |
|---|---|---|---|
power | Pump | ON / OFF | Remote → device |
timer | Run for | Minutes (0 = off) | Remote → device |
humidity | Air humidity | Device sends a number in % | Device → remote |
tank | Water tank | Device sends a number in % | Device → remote |
Stay safe
Mains electricity (230 V) can kill. If your device switches a fan, light, pump or any appliance, ask a qualified electrician to do the wiring. Use a relay rated well above the load, add a fuse or MCB, and keep everything inside a closed box. For motors and pumps, use a proper starter or contactor. A web remote must never be the only way to switch off a machine.
