While installing a smart sprinkler system for your lawn might seem superfluous, there are a surprising number of benefits that make a smart irrigation controller an item that should be at the top of every homeowner’s checklist.

#1 – They Help Save on Water

Any design or renovation that can help save on utility costs will end up paying for itself over time, and smart irrigation controls are no exception. In addition, when combined with an eco friendly driveway that uses clean, permeable gravel to enhance free water flow, smart technology can increase the efficiency of water use in a society that is increasingly conscious of eliminating waste and conserving natural resources.

There are times when your lawn simply does not need to be watered as much as you originally planned. Perhaps the weather has been cooler than expected due to extra cloud cover, or you got some unexpected runoff from a neighbor’s yard. Whatever the case, there will be times throughout the year when you simply do not need to water your lawn.

With traditional sprinkler controllers that have been programmed to turn on at certain times on certain days of the week, the process for skipping a cycle can be involved, with some people needing to call in assistance to turn off the sprinklers and then have the system re-programmed to get back on schedule. As such, most homeowners just ignore it and let their lawn get watered anyway.

By having an irrigation controller that is synched with your smartphone, skipping a sprinkler cycle is as simple as saying, “Alexa, pause the sprinklers.” With a smart irrigation system, inconvenience is no excuse for wasting water by running the sprinklers unnecessarily.

#2 – They Give You Increased Control of Your Irrigation

Sometimes, there are areas of the lawn that need more water than others. Using the previous example of receiving unexpected runoff from a neighboring yard, perhaps the lower half of your lawn is well watered from the runoff, while the upper half did not receive any.

Using your smartphone, you can open the app for your irrigation system and control which zones of the lawn you want watered while leaving the heads dormant on those areas that are sufficiently watered.

Another nifty feature that relates to sprinkler control is the ability to pause while you are walking outside. How annoying is it, with traditional sprinkler controls, to have to run from the front door of your house to your car because the sprinklers are spraying your path?

#3 – Your Smart Irrigation Control is Likely Smarter than You

Even though you can look at a road map and see the best route for getting to a destination, if your smartphone tells you that there is a wreck or road construction that will delay your travels, you are probably going to listen.

Likewise, even if you think you have your watering schedule down to a science, smart irrigation leaders like build their app with features that monitor the weather, select the best settings for the climate that your home is located in, and that can make suggestions for the type of vegetation you are growing, among others.

This is significant because if rain is forecasted, the sprinklers will not turn on, preventing a situation in which homes without an advanced driveway drainage system see flooding in their lawns that causes puddles to build up around their vehicles.

Before planting a garden or choosing trees for your home, consider placement. You will need to place larger tree varieties farther from your home. A vegetable garden requires at least six hours of direct sunlight and needs to be near an easy water source. Choose the placement of ornamentals and flowers with an eye for aesthetics and sun conditions.

If you plant drought resistant plants, they will survive better during the dry season. Native plants have evolved to thrive in the unique conditions of Central Florida. Choosing the right plants can save you time and money while still giving you all the benefits of a beautiful yard. The right plants can also attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators, which is a benefit to you and the environment.

Plant annuals that are cold weather tolerant. This includes pansies, snapdragons, and petunias. The cooler winter months are the time to establish bulbous flowers like amaryllis. When planting bulbs outside, make sure to provide a layer of mulch for temperature protection. The bulbs will need routine watering to help them become established.

Another reason why installing a sprinkler system is such a great idea is that it saves time and eliminates hassle. No more dragging that kinked up hose out into the yard or trying to remember to shut it off and move it to a new location on the property. Instead, you can just set the irrigation timer and go about your normal life. As a bonus, many newer digital systems even offer the opportunity to adjust settings from your smartphone, allowing you greater flexibility.

Let’s face it, if you’re looking to install a sprinkler system in your yard, you probably want your lawn to look nice. Having an automatic irrigation system is a great way to ensure your landscaping looks lush, even when the weather isn’t optimal for growth.
