Rachio for Rainbird XFS 0918 lawn drip irrigation

[franz]

@Robmoo

The spring project will be installing sprinkler valves and a sprinkler controller for my drip irrigation

Nice!

@Robmoo

Any recommendations for integrating Rachio into my irrigation setup?

Assuming you are using standard solenoid valves to turn on/off your drip system it shouldn’t be different than installing any other irrigation controller.

@Robmoo

I’ve been watering for 2 hours per zone once a week and this seems to be enough for all but a couple of problem areas. If I find that the problem areas are genuinely due to lack of water, it is easy to splice in more drip emitters.

Any suggestions?

Drip is all fairly new to me, maybe someone else on the forum has experience in this arena. Definitely post some pictures when it is all done, I’ve been looking into this type of system for some time.

Thanks for sharing!
