An automatic sprinkler system consists of several key components that work together to efficiently water your landscape:
- Controller (Timer or WiFi Controller) – The “brain” of the system that automates watering schedules. A WiFi controller allows for remote control via a smartphone app.
- Valves – These control the flow of water to different zones in your yard, opening and closing based on the controller’s instructions.
- Sprinkler Heads – Deliver water to your lawn and garden. Different types include pop-up spray heads, rotary heads, and drip irrigation emitters, depending on your landscape’s needs.
- Pipes and Fittings – Underground pipes distribute water from the main supply to each sprinkler head.
