Smart Irrigation Controllers
Episode 99 | 12m 29s
Using a smart irrigation controller to water your landscape can save water and money!
We visited Utah State University’s Center for Water-Efficient Landscaping to learn more on how smart irrigation controllers can help save water and money. Smart controllers use data from nearby weather stations, precipitation, ground moisture, or other sensors. You then add additional data about your landscaping zones and your smart controller will program an optimal watering schedule.
