  1. Things to Consider While Choosing a Smart Controller You may have been using a basic controller since a long time and someone suddenly told you that smart controllers are much better than the basic ones as they save you a lot of time and provide you a lot of other benefits, but you must know in and outs about these smart controllers. When you talk about using the smart ones, you must know about which smart controller and software will be beneficial for you. This is the reason you must consider a few things before you choose any of the smart controllers. Here are a few areas you should look out for –

  2. The fee – There are a few monthly or yearly fee you might have to pay for the smart controller regarding a few features; and different smart controllers provide you different services in different amount of fees. You need to check on those in order to save money and get rid of the trouble. However, most smart controllers save you money providing a lot of benefits. How easy they are to use – All smart controllers are have different ways of use. You must know how to use them. Most smart irrigation solutions employ a weather/evapotranspiration (“ET”) algorithm that determines how much water to apply to irrigation zones. However, these ET parameters such as the soil type, plan type etc should be previously set in the controller’s software and that is something complex. This is the reason you must know the ease of the specific smart controller you are going to buy.

  3. Automatic notifications – Look for the feature of automatic failure alerts and notifications in your smart controllers. Your smart controller must detect faults in piping, solenoids, and sprinkler heads. And then after the detection, it must be able to send you notification for the same. Check if your controller can be remotely accessed via your phone – Your smart controller should have the feature, where it can be easily accessible via your smart phone or the computer when the internet is working. It makes it easy for you to access and whenever it is required, you can make changes. The Warranty period – This is the most important part. Smart controllers are expensive and you obviously need it to work for a long time and provide you better services. Look for a brand which provides you at least 5 years of warrantee.
