Auto Watering Systems

Auto-watering System

Description of the Device

A soaker hose is buried in the garden and connected to a timer that can be controlled by a switch or smartphone. Soaker hoses are perforated to allow water to seep through the hose, providing water to plants slowly without wasting water as a result of water runoff, evaporation or overspray.

Use of the device

This is great system for saving your energy. Once the system is set-up you no longer have to water your garden manually or move a sprinkler head over and over to get the position just right.

Temporary or Permanent 

This is a more temporary solution which provides flexibility. This option can be removed when no longer needed.

Installing a sprinkler system is a much more permanent solution requiring a considerable investment.

Cost

Low Cost, price depends on hose length.

Support Needs (caregiver)

Initial set up may be required.

Aesthetics

Several styles are available.

Contraindications for device use

Check with your health care provider to see if this is an appropriate option based on your needs.
