The smart irrigation systems easily pay for themselves. The use predictive logic, not only has it rained but will it rain, did it rain based upon the predictions made, when was the last time irrigated, what was the evaporation and drainage rate. It is not uncommon to have 20 adjustments every month. Rachio is now on their third generation, the second is fine with the third providing actual water used per zone.
