Smart controllers can reduce water consumption as
much as 30% by optimizing the amount of water
applied to landscaping. A smart controller applies
100% of the programmed watering duration during
the hottest months of the year and reduces watering
durations for cooler months. Watering duration
compensation factors are based on 10 years of
historical weather data for specific zip code regions.
