The majority of gardeners prefer to water at sunrise or sunset. It’s the best time to minimise water evaporation and leaf scorch, but it is not always convenient to do it yourself at these times of the day.
The Hozelock Sensor Controller takes care of this for you as it includes a day light sensor that automatically adjusts your watering schedule to start at sunrise and sunset, every day.
No need to programme ever again, it will automatically change the start times to coincide with sunrise and sunset as the seasons change.
You can select from 2, 5, 10, 20, 30 or 60 minutes and is easy to adjust in case you need to react to changing weather conditions, without ever having to refer back to the instruction book.
If you need to dispense water outside of the automatic schedule you can use the Water Now button to turn on the water. Press once and the unit can be turned on for a 60 minute duration or simply press again to cancel the operation for shorter periods.
The Sensor Controller is easy to set up, simply insert 2 x AA batteries (not supplied) and select the required watering pattern from the dial. No complex programming skills required. It is supplied with a choice of 21 mm (1/2 inch BSP), 26.5 mm (¾ inch BSP) or 33.3 mm (1” BSP) adaptors for connection to most garden taps.
