Soil sensors measure what plants can use, and flow sensors catch leaks. Here is how they help a system run smarter.
Most irrigation systems water by the clock, not by need. Soil moisture sensors change that by measuring how wet the soil is at root depth and telling the controller to skip a cycle when it is wet enough. They work well in representative spots, with set points that suit your soil and plants. Poorly placed sensors can mislead, so they should go where conditions typical for the zone exist.
Flow sensors measure the water that moves through the system. Paired with a master valve and a compatible controller, they detect when flow is far above normal, shut down the zone and send an alert. They are the best protection against a broken pipe or stuck valve that could run for days. We install both, set up expected flow and test the response so the safety net really works.

Many controllers accept a sensor input. We check yours and recommend compatible options.
It reports unusual flow, and the controller closes the zone and master valve.
