  1. Everything You Need To Know About Smart Irrigation System Smart irrigation systems are one of the best innovations in the world of irrigation systems because they make your lives easier and better. The best thing about these irrigation systems is that they can save you a lot of money as the water bill and they can be beneficial in terms of the environment as well. There are plenty of smart irrigation systems available for you – like the WiFi based retic controller, the Web based water sprinkler or the Android based retic controller, etc and these help you in many ways in your day to day watering of the lawn.

  2. Why these systems are called smart? We don’t think we have to make you understand the meaning of the word “smart”. We all know what smart is – something that is advanced and doesn’t need much of your attention to do certain things. Well, the smart controllers are technologically advanced and they don’t require a lot of your attention to make things done. They are smart enough to determine whether or not your landscape requires so much of water at some certain point of time. It will water your landscape according to the soil moisture, the amount of water needed, or the weather for the day.

  3. How do they work? Smart controllers base their watering schedule upon evapotranspiration or ET. ET is the amount of water lost from the soil through evaporation plus the water actually used by the plant, both of which are dramatically affected by changing weather conditions. Smart controllers determine how much ET has occurred and replace only the amount of water that is needed by the plant.

  4. This specialized irrigation controller uses weather information and site conditions to determine how much water to apply and when to irrigate. Some of these controllers use a combination of historic and on-site weather data to determine these needs. Reasons these are smart? Well, we don’t really call these systems smart because they have a smart technology. They are smart because they water the plants only when it is needed; otherwise they don’t.

  5. Traditional controllers tend to err on the side of overwatering to ensure plants do not die, but overwatering is a leading cause of problems with ornamental plants. Also, the cost associated with treating and replacing plants is much more expensive than the water itself. The smart controllers save you a lot of water and there can nothing be smarter than the technology that offers water preservations.
