Rain Sensors

A rain sensor is a device or switch that overrides the automatic irrigation system when rainfall occurs. The sensor shuts off a system if it is operating during a rain shower, or is scheduled to run the following day and it has recently rained. It will also return the system to its regular operation during normal weather conditions. 

Florida Law (Section 373.62 F.S.) requires that all irrigation systems installed after May 1, 1991, be outfitted with a working rain sensor.  To ensure proper operations, sensors should be checked at least once annually.

This logical "don't water when it's raining" device can save from 25-40 percent in outdoor water use and reduce your water bills. If you have an automatic irrigation system without a sensor, we will provide one at no charge. You may install the sensor yourself or have a certified irrigation contractor install it. You are responsible for the cost of installation.
