The iWater Wizard is an iOS compatible (iPhone, iPad) controller that replaces your existing home irrigation controller and pairs directly to a Bluetooth compatible iOS device. Simply remove your old controller, replace it with the iWater Wizard and re-connect the existing wires. Once paired with your device, simply download the free iWater Wizard app and you're ready to go.
Having downloaded and installed the iWater Wizard app, users will now have the ability to set custom watering schedules, create zone maps using Google Maps or your own custom image, and custom name each zone. Being able to custom name each zone also means you won't ever be stuck in a situation of trying to remember which zone is which. Having this convenience in the palm of your hands also makes it more likely that adjustments will be made to watering schedules leading to more eco-friendly and efficient watering schedules which ultimately saves money, saves water and increases the health of a yard. The front of the controller also has a rain delay button which can be pushed to manually stop watering for 24 hours in the event the connected iOS device is not handy. The 12-Zone Irrigation Controller is powered by a 24V AC power adapter (included) and LEDs on the front of the controller provide feedback to let users know if it has power, if it's paired or if it is pairing.
Cool Applications of Use
The iWater Wizard Irrigation Controller is ideal for standard yard maintenance but is also accommodating to those who need to perform more complicated watering routines. For example:
- It can simulate complicated misting routines ideal for ferns or vegetables by programming their zone to turn on for three minute increments every twenty minutes for a four hour period time. Doing this simulates a humid rain forest-like environment in which they thrive.
- Does one side of your home need to be reseeded typically each spring? Set the controller to spray the zone that has been reseeded in one minute increments every half hour for good seed germination.
- Typically dry summer climates are not conducive to growing ferns as it would require A LOT of back and forth watering each day. Not with the iWater Wizard. Plant the ferns in a shaded area of the yard and set the controller to mist the ferns for one minute every two hours during the day and you'll be the envy of all your neighbors as they ask how you manage to do it.

Rating Decent little time and it's easy to use like it says. Wifi would be better but you can't beat the price.

Rating Great idea, but needs WIFI capability. The bluetooth range will be limited to where the controller is. You won't be able turn zones on and off when in your yard or from other parts of the house.

Rating Although I have not yet connected up the product for usage, I received my product in a very timely manner, HOWEVER, it was not in the original packaging box. It was in fact put in the shipping box with just the control box and and adapter. No instructions...nothing. I suspect this was some sort of returned item. Hopefully it will work. After looking online for instructions like how to get the App. I see you can buy directly from the Iwater wizard company and hence I would have done that now that I see how this was sent. I have bought many things from Smarthome in the past and in the past have always been satisfied. Not so much this time.
