For contractors overseeing several properties, the Toro OASIS app and Toro RXC controller can streamline irrigation oversight while improving efficiency and results:
· FEWER SITE VISITS: OASIS enables remote monitoring/adjustments, while the RXC provides reliable on-site scheduling—cutting routine trips for small changes.
· FASTER RESPONSE TIMES: Contractors can update watering programs quickly (via OASIS where supported), keep RXC schedules dialed in, and identify problems sooner, improving service turnaround.
· SIMPLER ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT: OASIS helps oversee multiple sites from one place, making it easier to track status and prioritize work.
· SEAMLESS CUSTOMER SETUP & HANDOFF: Contractors can explain schedule changes and efficiency improvements more clearly, supporting renewals and referrals.
· BETTER CLIENT COMMUNICATION: Contractors can explain schedule changes and efficiency improvements more clearly, supporting renewals and referrals.
Toro does offer several varieties of user-friendly sprinkler timers for residential use, but they’re also known for their line of professional-grade controllers. For example, the Toro EVOLUTION 12‑Station SMRT Logic Controller supports up to 12 zones and utilizes SMRT Logic compatibility for smart scheduling and monitoring. Other Toro EVOLUTION 12‑Station controllers are similarly capable of supporting larger irrigation systems and come with advanced programming flexibility. If you’re looking for an irrigation controller for professional use, Toro products will likely have you covered.
Always try to pick a sprinkler controller that accommodates your needs. How many zones do you have? Many Toro timers start at 4 stations and can expand with modules. Where will you put the controller? Toro offers both indoor and outdoor-rated timers. Are you looking for smart features? Some Toro products are compatible with Wi-Fi, use weather data, and can be remotely controlled.
There are a few different types of Toro EVOLUTION sprinkler controllers, but most of them have similar setup procedures. Make sure to take note of whether it is an indoor or outdoor controller before you begin the installation process. Start by choosing a location and mounting the controller. Next, while the controller is still powered off, wire your valves to each station on the controller. After adding any accessories or add-ons, you’re ready to power on and program the controller.
Start by confirming your station/zone wiring is landed on the correct terminals (common to COM, each zone wire to its numbered station), then restore power and set the date/time. Next, program your watering days (or interval), add the start time(s) for the program, and set run times for each zone. If you use a rain sensor, enable it (if required) and verify the sensor wiring; then switch the controller to Auto/Run and use manual start to test each zone and fine-tune runtimes.
It can work well for both: homeowners benefit from straightforward scheduling and dependable zone control, while contractors like the consistency, quick manual testing for service calls, and (on Wi‑Fi–capable setups) the ability to make schedule adjustments more efficiently. The “better” fit depends mainly on the model/features and whether you need remote management across multiple properties.
As you continue to expand your lawn and garden irrigation system, you’ll need to make sure that your controller can handle an increased number of zones. Luckily, Toro controllers are known for their scalability. With many Toro controllers, you can add expansion modules to increase station capacity, allowing you to add zones without replacing the whole timer. Toro controllers are also compatible with all kinds of sprinkler sensors, if you wish to expand their smart capabilities.
