Where do you get these other systems? Who do you use to install or maintain?
Again, I don’t understand the old one do I don’t get the new ones.
BHyve cost $98 while Rachio cost over $250. There must be a difference that I don’t see.
Just bought the Rachio 3 from Costco for $149 for our home that will be built later this year. Have been using a Rachio 2 for several years and like it. I am connected to a weather station and it will sometimes not water for an expected rain. I can verify a rain with a camera that is placed to look out at the lawn to see any rainfall when I am away.
