WaterSense labels two types of irrigation controllers that can help homeowners and businesses make their irrigation scheduling more water-efficient: weather-based irrigation controllers use local weather and landscape conditions to tailor watering schedules, and soil moisture-based irrigation controllers (also known as soil moisture sensors, or SMSs) monitor moisture levels in the soil to prevent irrigation when water is not needed.
Most are mounted in your house or on the side of your house. Most of the models we test allow you to operate them using the manual controls on the device itself and via an app on a smartphone. All work with digital assistants and/or smart home systems—such as Amazon Alexa, Apple Home (formerly HomeKit) and Siri, Google Home/Assistant, and Samsung SmartThings.
