Been doing a ton of landscaping and projects around the house; but a notable one was installing the Rachio 3 today.
Our irrigation system was on a "dumb" controller while it supposedly had a rain sensor. I would wake up some days and find it watering my lawn....while downpouring. Since 1st, it is wasteful; and 2nd costly, I tried to stay on top of turning it off manually. It was a pain. My friend mentioned the Rachio and got me 40% off the new Rachio 3. Think of it like a nest for your irrigation system. It uses local weather forecasts to create a schedule of regular watering that will "hopefully" reduce my water bill and pay itself off within 3-4 months. It also created a new schedule that is less frequent but deeper watering, and much earlier in the morning that I had it going. Install was very simple, about 45 minutes to pull out all the old stuff, mount the new box, w ire it up and set it up on the phone.
