Fact #1. Smart sprinklers that incorporate information from the web into their water management are relatively new to the market. However, automatic sprinklers of one kind or another have been available since the late 19th century. Before then, lawns were primarily a luxury of only the upper classes in society. Now, the lawn is an integral part of the American dream as we know it.
Fact #2. The first bits of technology to automate sprinkler function were basic timers. Later, sprinkler systems incorporated past data, like a farmer's almanac, into their programming. The last thing taken into account before these systems received internet hookups was a local weather station. Information gathered by this station could augment the data preset according to regional rain averages and produce a more efficient system.
Fact #3. Ideally, smart sprinkler systems are designed to connect and control the flow of water to different watering areas. These areas are comprised of a number of water delivery services, like sprinkler heads. With these advanced systems, you can set individual zones to water at different times, for a different duration, on different days.
Fact #4. There's a smart sprinkler system out there with your name on it. But now you've got to figure out which one to buy. Fortunately, you only need to look briefly at your options to narrow down your choice to a few controllers. Some units are easier to install than others, particularly when it comes to running the wires that control your sprinkler function. If you have an affinity for technical play, you'd be fine with one of these. If not, you might consider a unit more lauded for its ease in setup.
Fact #5. Beyond the simplicity of the setup and the features and quality of the user interface, there isn't a lot to differentiate one smart sprinkler system from the next, other than price. Some models only operate at their fullest when you contract to a monthly term. It's usually no more than five dollars a month.
