Drip Irrigation Controllers

How to Choose a Drip Controller or Timer

A drip timer runs your watering on a set schedule so beds and containers get consistent moisture while you’re away. Hose-end battery timers thread onto a spigot for a single zone; in-ground controllers drive valves for multiple drip zones.

Drip waters slowly, so run times are longer and less frequent than spray. Many timers support multiple start times and short, frequent cycles for containers. Match the timer’s zone count to your number of drip control zones.
