Useful Lawn Sprinkler Accessories

1. The rain shut-off device

The rain shut-off device is probably the single greatest water-management tool available. We’ve all seen lawn sprinkler systems operating in the rain. This is probably the most obvious example of poor water management.

2.  Freeze sensor shut-off device

These devices prevent irrigation systems from operating when the temperature is below 32 degrees.

3.  Pressure regulators

Manufacturers of irrigation systems design them to operate within a certain window of pressure. When they operate outside that window - for example, when pressure is too high - the sprinkler heads waste water. Specifically, high pressure causes the water droplets to become very small. They then exit the head in the form of a mist or fog rather than a stream of water. These smaller water droplets are more likely to evaporate or drift, wasting water.

4.  Remote Control & Computer Interface

See our controller page for more information.
