I installed my own personal weather station and my b-hyve runs the zones when it needs to: when they turn on, how long each zone runs, and it puts itself in delay mode for days weeks depending on rain chances in the near future.
It’s not smart to ignore the guidance from the water department. Staying within the recommended day/time window helps protect water pressure for all of us.

Still is in my neighborhood. Every one willing to add a helping hand when needed.
Still waving when passing.

According to Dean's, they don't do any sprinkler maintenance or repair.

I guess the words "as needed" in my post might have been a bit hard for some folks to read.

I read it, but It certainly wasn't clear to me that he would come faster, unless you had some type of prior agreement. Does he offer a guaranteed response time to repair leaks? A lot of these companies do not.
