How to Program Your Sprinkler System Timer

If you are a homeowner looking to maintain a healthy and lush lawn, you need to consider hiring Atlanta Irrigation Company for professional irrigation system installation. Sprinkler systems ensure the property gets sufficient water, and an efficient control system enhances the watering quality. One of the distinctive features that make controllers quite effective is the timer, which ensures your lawn is watered at the right time for maximum efficiency.

The first step is acquiring the right sprinkler, which can be challenging with all the different makes and models in the market. Our experts take the time to assess your specific needs before helping you find one that fits your watering needs. The timer is an ideal accessory that optimizes the efficiency of your system, and that's why it is crucial to familiarize yourself with how it works.

What is a Sprinkler System?

Sprinkler systems are considered the most suitable lawn irrigation system solutions. This highly effective and efficient mode of distributing water uses a nozzle located on the sprinkler head connected to pipes attached to a pump or water tank. Water flows through the line and comes out of the nozzle under pressure to reach all the corners of your yard. Compared to other irrigation techniques, a sprinkler system doesn't waste a lot of water. If your system shows signs of damage or under-performance, you need to hire a professional sprinkler repair company.

Why Should You Set Sprinkler Timer?

There are many benefits you stand to gain by setting a sprinkler timer, starting with timer programming found within the controller system. A timer can ensure your lawn gets the right amount of water without compromising its health by overwatering or underwatering. This option helps you take care of the lawn even in your absence since the system turns on automatically at specific times. Whether you are going on vacation or travelling for the weekend, you can set the time as per the weather or season.

How to Set the Timer

It is crucial for homeowners to properly set their timers to ensure they get the most out of their sprinkler systems. You can set your sprinkler by following these simple steps: if you prefer a more hands-off approach, the experts at Atlanta Irrigation Company can help you calibrate your sprinkler appropriately.

The first step is setting the correct time and date by turning the dial on the controller to the current day and time. The next step is choosing when you want the sprinkler to turn on automatically, and your settings will be followed.

The time set has four different settings for you to choose from, allowing you to choose the weather, day, season, or week. Turn the dial once you are done, and your settings will be saved. Lastly, set the sprinkler's duration so that your watering needs can be fully addressed. This is one of the most efficient sprinkler system features, and we can help you save time, water, and cost that goes into watering your lawn.
