Get a Greener, Healthier Lawn
The main goal of any homeowner who has a lawn that has beautiful grass to consider buying a sprinkler system is to get one that will maintain the beauty of the lawn area as it keeps the grass as green as possible.
The ability to set up sprinkling schedules that put into consideration the wind conditions, low temperatures, and rain gives smart hose sprinkler systems the flexibility that other standard sprinklers just will not have. Some smart systems can even incorporate additional information like sun exposure and soil type so that the grass in your lawn can only receive exactly what it needs to thrive. Here are the benefits you will enjoy when you use this automated sprinkler.
Convenience
The most apparent reason why most people go for automatic water sprinklers is to make lawn watering become less hands-on involvement. You can set a timer for a specific time that, immediately that time reaches the sprinkler, automatically pop up and water your lawn. The timer can be for specific days of the week.
Water while you are out of town
Summer is the best time that most people prefer to go on holiday. Just because you have gone on holiday and enjoyed your time doesn’t mean you have to come back and be pissed by a yellow lawn. An automated sprinkler will eliminate the need to hire someone to come to water your lawn or ask your neighbor to water it for you while you are away.
Aesthetics and safety
There is nothing attractive about having hose pipes stretching across your garden area to water the lawn. Watering will mean putting the pipes on every time you want to water your lawn. If you don’t put them away after every watering session, this sight is a mandatory side effect. Additionally, the hose can be a tripping hazard to kids, pets, and anyone playing in the yard. In contrast, when you install automatic sprinklers, their heads will pop out of the ground at a specific scheduled time, water your lawn and disappear to the ground when they are done.
Water the optimal amount
When you use an advanced automatic sprinkler system, they have an inbuilt feature that can sense the weather and soil moisture to sprinkle the correct amount of water when needed. Supposing the sprinklers sense rain, they will skip the timed water sprinkling schedule to avoid over-drenching the lawn and save you water and money.
Water at the ideal time
The best recommended time to water a lawn or plant is in the early part of the morning. When you water your lawn when the heat wave from the sun is down, you will minimize evaporation. Further, when you choose the morning hours rather than the evening, you will reduce the chances of diseases that might be attacking your lawn and stay overnight. To take advantage of early-morning watering, set a timer on your automatic sprinkler to maintain the morning sprinkling routine.
You can have full control through an app
Another benefit you will enjoy using a smart sprinkler system is that it will give you full power depending on your location. Whether you are in your basement or on vacation somewhere in the Caribbean, if you have your phone or tablet with you, where you have set control of your sprinkler. Just the same way, you control your TV, lights, and thermostat.
If you are ready to pursue automatic sprinkler system installation, it would be best if you talked to a professional to advise you on the best sprinkler that will suit your lawn and provide you with service for your money.
