The ease and speed with which you can program this controller is remarkable. Simply input a few key specifics, such as your zip code, allowed watering days and the plant/soil type for each zone; the ESP-SMT does the rest. Your irrigation system waters only when the landscape requires it. And you save 30-70% in water.

The ESP-SMT maximizes water efficiency by factoring in everything from soil type to the slope of your lawn to the amount of sun exposure different areas receive. All of these details are calculated for every zone of your automatic sprinkler system to help you maintain a lush, healthy lawn and landscape.

Rain and rain/freeze sensors are becoming “must have” components for irrigation systems these days. Rain Bird designed the new WR2 wireless sensor to exceed the standard. With revolutionary features, this sensor saves time, improves system performance and enhances your reputation as a water management expert.

Reliable signal transmission and other innovations deliver superior responsiveness to rainfall and cold temperatures, while user-friendly features cut installation and programming time in half. Choose your own rainfall set points and save up to 35% on water usage while promoting lush, beautiful landscapes.

How much and how long to apply water depends on the type of soil that is being watered. Hard, compacted soil takes considerably longer to absorb water than loose granular soil. In order to maximize water use and prevent runoff, use the cycle and soak method of irrigation.

For example instead of watering all at once, set your sprinklers to water grass:

•3 times a day
•4 minutes each watering zone
•1 hour in between each watering cycle
Watering in increments gives compacted soil adequate time to soak up water. Once the water from the first round of watering is absorbed, then water again about an hour later. The already moist soil will enable additional water to travel even deeper to the roots and in turn, create a healthier lawn.

Applying too much water in one increment results in the ground reaching a saturation point meaning any additional water will run-off and be wasted.

Different types of grass and soil will require differing amounts of water. In order to determine how deeply the water is penetrating into the soil in your yard, all that’s needed is a shovel. Simply pick an area of the lawn that is irrigated and about 30 minutes after watering, dig a small hole, and use your hand to determine how deeply the water has penetrated.

In most lawn and garden situations, it’s best if water is penetrating 6 to 8 inches beneath the surface of the soil. If the soil is still dry at this depth, then another cycle may be needed to encourage deep root growth.

There’s never been a time when water efficiency was more instrumental to your success. And there’s never been a Sprinkler Smart Controller that’s easier to install and program than the Rain Bird® ESP-SMT Smart Control System.
