1) Connect pre-attached stake and stainless steel tube to the control assembly [shown above] and place in the ground where the sun shines at least 5 hours a day. Turn knob to below “1” for no watering until the unit charges in the sun (up to 24 hours).
2) Place the slender sensor rod in an area watered by the system, about 2-3 inches under the soaker hose used to water your foundation. It is your choice to place the soaker hose at ground level or below. Place it about six inches from your foundation. Dig a 4 inch hole to a depth 2-3 inches below the soaker and insert the sensor – red dot up – at a horizontal to the ground into undisturbed soil.
3) Connect the solenoid valve to a spigot. Connect the outlet to the soaker hose or other watering system, such as drip tape
4) The next day make a note of the number of blinks on the controller. This gives you the current soil moisture reading. If the soil moisture is about right, adjust the knob to the same number as the blinks to give good watering. If the soil is too dry, adjust the knob up a number or two, and down a number or two if already too wet.
5) Periodically check the soil around the foundation. Adjust the knob setting up or down as desired for more or less watering.
Checks the soil 3 times a day - waters if needed.    Close Window
