Smart WiFi Irrigation Controllers for Lawn Sprinkler Systems

Pacific Lawn Sprinklers is ahead of the curve with Smart WIFI controllers! Irrigation is now getting “smart”, using efficient irrigation technologies and allowing you to control your underground sprinkler system from any mobile device!

What is SMART IRRIGATION?

According to “Smart Irrigation”, Smart Irrigation is Sustainably Managed, Accountable, Responsible and Trusted irrigation. SMART irrigators aim to minimize their environmental footprint through efficient water use, saving water, time, and money!

Smart irrigation is sustainably managed, accountable, reasonable, and trusted irrigation

According to the Irrigation Association, smart controllers:

SAVE WATER

Smart systems automatically suspend watering during rain, freezing or high wind conditions. Careful scheduling minimizes evaporation and encourages water to soak in, reducing the total amount of water needed. Preventing overwatering actually keeps plants healthier by encouraging stronger roots and discouraging weeds, disease and fungus growth.

SAVE MONEY

Smart systems can reduce your annual water bill by as much as 30 percent by preventing water waste. Plus, many local water providers offer rebates for purchasing specific smart controllers.

SAVE TIME

Once an irrigation installer has programmed your site data into the smart system, the controller adjusts the watering schedule based upon weather conditions and soil moisture without manual intervention.

ADD CONVENIENCE

Smart controllers adapt to seasonal weather changes without requiring reprogramming. And their “set and forget” technology is perfect for complying with any local watering restrictions, as well as for frequent travelers and vacation or second homes.

  • Controlling your irrigation system from a smart phone or tablet
