Review: beware power outages - There are over 80 people on the rachio website with bricked rachio 3 because power outage. It happened to me before I even got it set up. They will replace it IF you are in USA, they will ship overseas, but, wont replace unit. I am in UK, Look for a more robust timer Review: Excellent system - easy to install and works great! - I finally replaced my RainBird system which worked well but was old and outdated. This system was recommended by friends and relatives and it is great! Right out of the box the instructions were very clear and easy to understand. I labeled all the old wires as I took the old system apart which definitely helped with the new installation. The controller is very easy to mount and the wiring is a simple push and lock mechanism. Since it connects to wifi it gathers weather data from numerous sources and seems even more accurate than the local forecast. I've already had it tell me it would "skip" watering and then as the forecast changed it deleted the skip and watered as required. The app is very intuitive and user friendly. Having access anywhere makes watering a breeze with the ability to control everything about all zones (we have 15). I highly recommend this system as a great value for the cost. ## Features - DITCH THE DIAL – Upgrade to smart irrigation with the free Rachio app for precise, easy control. - AUTOMATIC WEATHER SKIPS – Patented Weather Intelligence skips watering for rain, wind, freeze & more. - SAVE WATER YEAR-ROUND – Adaptive schedules help your yard thrive in April showers & July heat. - FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING – Create your own schedule or let Weather Intelligence adjust automatically; includes grow-in options. - CONTROL FROM ANYWHERE – Manage watering, run zones, view schedules & track estimated usage in the Rachio App. - FAST DIY INSTALL – Install in 30 min or less, compatible with 99% of existing sprinkler systems. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07CZ5K355 | | Best Sellers Rank | 238,020 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 78 in Automatic Irrigation Controllers | | Brand | RACHIO | | Colour | Grey | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,861 Reviews | | Display Type | LED | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00680140538870 | | Included Components | Controller, power supply, quick start guide, screws and drywall anchors | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 23.1L x 3.6W x 14.2H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Smart Sprinkler Controller with Hyperlocal Weather Intelligence | | Item Weight | 1.05 Pounds | | Item weight | 1.05 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Rachio | | Manufacturer Part Number | 16ZULW-C | | Material | Plastic | | Model Number | 16ZULW-C | | Operating Temperature | 50 Degrees Fahrenheit | | Product dimensions | 23.1L x 3.6W x 14.2H centimetres | | UPC | 680140538870 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 110 Volts (AC) | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RACHIO - **Colour:** Grey - **Material:** Plastic - **Product dimensions:** 23.1L x 3.6W x 14.2H centimetres - **Voltage:** 110 Volts (AC) ## Images ![3 WiFi Smart Lawn Sprinkler Controller, Compatible with Alexa, 16-Zone - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+3Bnu4tBL.jpg) ![3 WiFi Smart Lawn Sprinkler Controller, Compatible with Alexa, 16-Zone - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71yfGbSY20L.jpg) ![3 WiFi Smart Lawn Sprinkler Controller, Compatible with Alexa, 16-Zone - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ExgAox1DL.jpg) ![3 WiFi Smart Lawn Sprinkler Controller, Compatible with Alexa, 16-Zone - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-8Z9pk6yL.jpg) ![3 WiFi Smart Lawn Sprinkler Controller, Compatible with Alexa, 16-Zone - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IiHDuoBtL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a zone that is under cover and never gets rain. Does the Rachio 3 allow for one zone to run regardless of rain while other zones don't?** A: Despite the answers above, the answer is YES. You can create a separate schedule just for the zone you desire and make it a fixed schedule. You can turn off all the features and that will make it run even if it’s raining or windy or whatever. Than create schedules for the rest of the zones with all the weather features you like. **Q: Does this have a setting for a delay between zones? The controller i'm replacing does not have this delay,it switches between zones fast, hammers pipe** A: Yes, at least with my gen 3, a feature to reduce water hammer will turn on the next zone 10 seconds early allowing no abrupt stop at the end of a zone run. Excerpt from Rachio help: What is Rachio's "Minimize Water Hammer" setting? With this setting, your Rachio Smart Sprinkler Controller will open the 'next' scheduled zone to run in a watering schedule, 10 seconds prior to the end time of the current zone that is running. **Q: Can it be hard wired from the modem/router with cat5 or 6? no wifi where it would be installed. does it have an ethernet data port?** A: No data port — BUT, it works on both 2.4 and 5Ghz bands of wifi. Works very well and connected very easily. Access point is through a wall about 25 feet away. **Q: Can each valve be set up as it's own zone with independent start times and durations?** A: You have to understand that each zone needs to have it’s own solenoid in order to control zones separately. Some homes use an index valve system, and you switch zones by turning off and on, and the water pressure turns the index valve to the next zone. That won’t work with Rachio or any of these kind of systems. You will need to remove the index valve, and rearrange each of the pvc pipes that connected to it. That can be accomplished with a days effort, but you’ll need pvc fittings, a pvc cutter and pvc cement, and a solenoid for each zone you have. Each solenoid has two wires, so you’ll also need sprinkler cable with two conductors for each zone. So for a 5 zone system, your cable needs 10 conductors. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ beware power outages *by M***K on 3 April 2024* There are over 80 people on the rachio website with bricked rachio 3 because power outage.

Setup I had trouble to add my unit on to Rachio server. Rachio Service was quick, responsive and friendly. After installation is done, schedule setup is easy. Weather Intelligence Plus does not work well in my area (Mississauga, Ontario) as the weather forecast by the stations in Rachio database is mostly from the American network of Weather Underground and it is not accurate. I had to move around (trial and errors) with different stations in order to get a close reading of rain forecast and rainfall level as this will determine whether the unit will skip a scheduled water time. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rachio 3 Smart Sprinkler Controller: 16 Zone | Simple Auto Schedules, Quick Run, Local Weather Intelligence.
