Water-Smart Automation for Your Yard

Old-fashioned sprinkler timers are "set it and forget it," which often means watering during rainstorms or when the ground is already saturated. In Colorado Springs' erratic climate, this wastes thousands of gallons of water and drives up your bill.

A smart controller uses real-time local weather data to adjust your watering schedule automatically. It skips cycles during rain, wind, or freezes, and optimizes watering for your specific soil type and plant needs.

Why Upgrade to Smart Control?

CSU Utilities Rebates: Many WaterSense-certified controllers qualify for significant rebates from Colorado Springs Utilities.
Remote Control: Manage your entire system from your smartphone, anywhere in the world.
Weather Intelligence: Rain, wind, and freeze skips based on hyper-local Colorado weather data.
Water Savings: Homeowners typically see a 20-40% reduction in outdoor water usage.
Healthier Lawns: Precision watering prevents over-saturation and root rot.

Smart Controller FAQ

Got More Questions?

Can Springs Irrigation help with CSU rebates?

Yes. We install WaterSense-certified controllers that meet the technical requirements for Colorado Springs Utilities rebate programs. We'll provide you with the necessary itemized receipt and model info you need to submit your claim.

Do I need strong Wi-Fi in my garage or yard?

Yes, smart controllers require a Wi-Fi connection to access weather data. If your signal is weak, we can suggest Wi-Fi extenders or alternative placement to ensure your system stays connected.

What happens if my Wi-Fi goes down?

Most smart controllers (like Rachio and Rainbird) will continue to run their last saved schedule even without Wi-Fi. They will simply wait to reconnect before they can download updated weather adjustments or allow remote control.
