Should I install a smart sprinkler system?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
A smart sprinkler controller replaces your existing timer and connects to Wi-Fi. It adjusts watering schedules based on local weather data, skipping watering when rain is forecast and adjusting for temperature and humidity. This typically saves 20 to 50 percent on outdoor water use. Most models install in under an hour and work with existing sprinkler wiring. They are especially valuable in South Jersey where summer watering can significantly impact your water bill. Check with your water utility for potential rebates.
Why It Matters
A smart sprinkler system saves water, lowers your utility bills, and keeps your lawn healthier by watering only when needed.
