Explore irrigation guides →Write down the requirements first
Note your intended workload, dimensions, available power or connections, budget and storage space. A feature is useful when it solves one of those requirements. Check replacement parts and recurring consumables as well as the initial price.
Read the operating limits
Backflow prevention, plumbing and electrical work must meet local requirements; check water-use restrictions and exact product instructions.
