Irrigation Systems Atlanta-Soil Sensors

Did you notice your irrigation system running even after all of the rain we just had? Soil sensors can eliminate over-watering and reduce your water bill. They also typically work well with existing systems. These wireless sensors are placed in the ground at root level in each sprinkler zone. They measure soil moisture and temperature day and night. The measurements are transmitted to a base station which is connected to the irrigation system controller. When the soil has adequate moisture (whether from rain or from the irrigation system) the sensors will restrict the system from watering in that zone. Wow-now that's what I call getting to the "root" of the problem!
