Control your watering...
...automatically using schedules.
Eve Aqua takes care of difficult tasks while you relax in your garden: schedules start the garden watering regularly at a time and for a period of time that you specify. As schedules are stored directly on Eve Aqua, they can be run at any time – no matter if Eve Aqua is connected to your iPhone or the internet, and all without requiring a bridge or gateway.
...via iPhone, Siri or directly on the device.
Sure, you can water whenever you want with a touch of the onboard button. But it’s all the more satisfying to control Eve Aqua with your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and using Siri.
...from on the go.
On vacation and seen on the weather report that a heatwave is about to hit at home? Not a problem. Thanks to your home hub – HomePod, HomePod mini or Apple TV – you can stay connected and easily water your garden on the go.
And if the weather does turn out to be better than forecasted, you can pause schedules whenever you want, wherever you are.
Auto shut-off.
Waste of water and flooding due to forgetfulness are a thing of the past. After you have manually started watering, Eve Aqua automatically switches the water flow off again after a time that you specify once – reliably, quickly and quietly thanks to the magnetic valve.
Irrigate with insight.
How much water does your garden consume? The Eve app continuously calculates the watering amount.
Hassle-free set up for any scenario.
Eve Aqua is compatible with all popular hose systems and multi-channel water distributors, such as from Gardena or Kärcher, and installs in a matter of minutes. It’s also ideal for more complex watering tasks, with the Eve app enabling you to set up to seven individual daily watering periods to suit each day.

Even if you’re only away for a weekend, the flowers in your tubs or the veg in your raised beds will still require regular watering. Prevent them from wilting by tackling the issue the quick and cost-effective way with Eve Aqua and a Gardena micro-drip irrigation system.
With a two-channel water distributor you can use Eve Aqua for irrigation without tying up your faucet. and you won’t need to remove Eve Aqua for those times when you just need to fill your wading pool or wash your hands.
Future-proof.
Alongside Bluetooth, Eve Aqua supports Thread. This technology makes your smart home network more responsive, robust, and increases its reach – the only other thing you need is HomePod mini or Apple TV 4K (2nd generation, 3rd generation 128 GB).
Thread is also a pillar of the new Matter standard.
Enjoy your garden.
Eve Aqua is built to live autonomously. IPX4 water resistance and Australian-certified UV protection keeps Eve Aqua shipshape season after season. Set up Eve Aqua once and turn a chore into smart watering.
Good to know
Will Eve Aqua fit my faucet?
Eve Aqua’s standard 26.5 mm / ¾" thread fits virtually any regular outdoor faucet. When fitting Eve Aqua, screw it all the way on to the faucet using your fingers. Ensure it fits securely and that no water escapes even when the valve is shut.
Eve Aqua is a Minimal Thread Device (MTD) – but what does that mean?
The current version of Eve Aqua supports Thread. This technology makes your smart home network more responsive, robust, and increases its reach – the only thing you need is a home hub (Thread border router). Battery-operated Thread accessories, such as Eve Aqua, represent endpoints in your Thread network.
By contrast, mains-powered Thread accessories that are always on, such as Eve Energy, Eve Light Switch or Eve Water Guard, can act as router nodes within your Thread network and relay data packets. So, the more of these Full Thread Devices (FTDs) you have in your network, the more stable and greater its reach becomes.
How can I extend the range of Eve Aqua?
Adding HomePod mini or the newest Apple TV to your home means Thread-enabled Eve accessories such as Eve Aqua can communicate via Thread – the mesh network that reaches even the farthest corners of your abode. This happens automatically without you needing to configure anything. Simply position a Full Thread Device, such as Eve Energy, as close as possible to your Eve Aqua. The Eve Energy accessory will then act as a Thread hub and relay data packets from Eve Aqua.
In the Settings section of the Eve app, you can view the structure of your thread network under "Thread network" and identify potential for improvement: Which node is Eve Aqua talking to? Can the stability and range be improved with another node, e.g. another or better placed Eve Energy?
Do I need an internet connection in my garden?
Once set up, Eve Aqua works completely autonomously. It’s entirely up to you if you want to use the HomeKit automation and remote access functions that require a home hub.
How to suspend your watering schedule based on the rain forecast
In conjunction with Apple's Shortcuts app, Eve 4.4 lets you suspend the watering schedules stored on your Eve Aqua if the weather is going to take a turn for the worse. All you need to do is to install the built-in shortcut right from within the Eve app.
Do I need a hub?
This device does not require a hub for control right from your iPhone or iPad. Depending on what you want to do, a hub will unlock more advanced functionality:
- Remote Access: Access your Eve devices even when you’re not at home
- Automation: Make your devices work hand in hand
- Notifications: Receive activity notifications from selected sensors
- Thread: Benefit from a more robust, reliable connection
- Ready for Matter: With a future software update, experience the future of the smart home
HomePod (2nd gen), HomePod mini or Apple TV 4K (2nd gen/3rd gen 128 GB) will unlock all of these benefits.
If you only want to enjoy Remote Access, Automations and Notifications, HomePod (1st gen) and previous Apple TV models will also offer this functionality. Please note these devices will not work with Matter-enabled Eve devices.
Privacy by Design. What happens at home, stays at home.
Home is your most private space. The only place where you can do as you please, on your terms. However, if you live in a smart home, you will also produce loads of data that others will be only too keen to get their hands on. That’s why we developed our Eve range from the ground up to keep information private and secure. There’s no Eve cloud, no registration and no tracking so your data won’t get exposed. Local intelligence enables direct communication between Eve accessory and iPhone, iPad or home hub without bridge or cloud dependency.
Eve Aqua can be controlled using the Eve app, the Home app and Siri.
