Rain & Freeze Sensors

Few things look worse than sprinklers running during a rainstorm. It wastes water, can saturate the soil and sends a message that nobody is paying attention. Running in near-freezing weather can ice up walks and drives.

We install rain, freeze and soil moisture sensors across Nashville and Middle Tennessee. We mount them where they read the weather correctly, wire them to the controller, set the thresholds and test them so the system skips watering when it is wet or too cold.

FAQ

Common questions about rain & freeze sensors

Do I need a rain sensor?

Many places encourage or require one. It saves water, and it is simple protection against watering in a storm.

How does a freeze sensor work?

It reads air temperature and stops the controller from running when it drops near freezing.

Where should a rain sensor go?

In the open, away from gutters and tree cover, so it reads actual rainfall.
