Can You Put a Timer on a Sprinkler & Water Hose?
A great thing about water timers are that they're not just for sprinklers—you can use them to control your hose, too! Whether you're watering your garden, cleaning your car, or even filling a kiddie pool or swimming pool, a water timer can help you make sure that you don't water too much.
Sprinkler Timers Putting a timer on your sprinklers is the perfect way to keep the landscaping looking perfect and conserving water in the process. Some sprinkler controllers even come with sensors to measure rain and adjust accordingly. You can also adjust settings based on seasonal changes like hot summers or cold winters.
Hose Timers The best part of using a timer for your hose is that you can set it and forget it—you don't have to worry about leaving the hose running all day while you're away from home. Most hose timers are easily set up with just a few turns of the knob, so it's convenient and timesaving and helps conserve water, too.
If you need a new hose or sprinkler to go with a new water timer Canadian Tire has got the right Garden Hoses and Lawn Sprinklers to suit your needs.
