WeathermaticPro Line 800 120 Vac/60 Hz Indoor Irrigation Controller - 4 Zone Base Model Expandable to 8 Zones

Being a licensed irrigator, I’m familiar with virtually all the controllers. This one is easy to use and program. Also has built in fault detection which is a real plus. The price here is the best I have seen.

It was a little hard to set up but it is a great product

Easy to install. Works perfectly!

Fit my needs precisely. Simple to install

simply the best. Have had others and they did not have the features this one has. Easy to operate.

After testing many irrigation controllers, I have found the best controller for the Las Vegas Valley Water District is the Weathermatic line for the simple reason these controllers can be programmed one time in a set-it-and-forget-it manner. The secret sauce is that the Weathermatic units include a MONTHLY SEASONAL ADJUST feature (a feature that I wish Rachio and other smart controllers would consider). So in our case, we are required to water on:- Mon-Sat from May-Aug;- Mon, Wed, & Fri during Mar-Apr, Sep-Oct; and- Fri during Nov-Feb.On the Weathermatic units, use:- Program A for May-Aug months,- Program B for Mar-Apr, Sep-Oct months, and- Program C for Nov-Feb.Set the days and times to water per usual. Then set the Monthly Seasonal Adjust as follows:- Program A: 100% for May-Aug (0% all other months),- Program B: 100% for Mar-Apr, Sep-Oct (0% all other months),- Program C: 100% for Nov-Feb (0% all other months).That's it, it's set and you don't have to touch it at the change of season. I only wish Rachio would add this manual MONTHLY scheduling feature into their logic. Or, Weathermatic add a good WiFi and phone app feature to their lineup for troubleshooting. Until then, I use both. The Rachio for troubleshooting and the PL800 as the daily driver (both controllers wired to a 5 zone system and a 3-way power switch to the transformers).
