Can I set completely different schedules for my front yard and back yard?
Yes. This 2 Zone model features independent programming. By pressing the Zone button, you can set Zone 1 to water every day for 10 minutes, and Zone 2 to water every 7 days for an hour.
How many batteries are needed for this dual outlet timer?
This 2 Zone timer strictly requires 2 AA alkaline batteries. Please ensure they are brand new. Do not use rechargeable batteries, as they operate at a lower voltage and may cause the timer to falsely trigger the low-battery shutoff.
Will the connection crack if I leave it in the sun all summer?
The water inlet is constructed from heavy-duty solid brass, which handles high outdoor summer temperatures and frequent hose attachments much better than standard plastic fittings, preventing cross-threading and major leaks.
Is this a smart irrigation controller that adjusts to local weather?
No, this is a highly reliable non-smart manual timer. It does not connect to WiFi or automatically adjust to weather forecasts. However, it does feature a manual Rain Delay button that lets you pause watering for 1 to 15 days when it rains.
