According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as much as 70% of a home's total water use during the dry season may go to landscape irrigation. Experts estimate that more than 50% of landscape water is wasted due to overwatering. Using seven-day forecasts, the RainMachine efficiently adjusts your watering schedule using real-time temperature, wind, and rainfall data. It was scientifically designed to improve watering efficiency and dramatically reduce water waste.

Keep the password to yourself. Do not expose your garden to the internet. RainMachine keeps all credentials local, on your device, not on an internet server. This means you do not have to rely on a third-party service to protect your garden.
The RainMachine has the ability to gather meteorological data from multiple data sources, increasing accuracy and reliability. Imagine a chorus of voices singing in unison, if one voice stops, the song will still go on. That way, your garden can rely on accurate data on which to base watering schedules.
The RainMachine protects your garden against unexpected hot or freezing conditions. For example, it ceases to water if the temperature goes below a preset value. Additionally, you can suspend all programs for a number of days or months, according to your local climate. During extremely hot days, the RainMachine will increase water output to provide your garden with the optimal amount needed to flourish.
With rapidly changing weather patterns, the RainMachine never gets left behind. Updating forecast data several times a day the RainMachine delivers the most accurate EvapoTraspiration calculations. Unlike other sprinkler controllers that use zip codes, the RainMachine uses exact street address location, downloading precise weather data within less than a 1.5 miles (2.5 km) grid.
By design, nobody else has control of your garden. You are not tethered to a cloud service of any kind. RainMachine connects via Wi-Fi to trusted National2 and International3 weather data sources and adjusts daily watering amount. The machine stays in sync with nature for optimal efficiency. All this data is available free to RainMachine users.
Because we provide our evapotranspiration formula source code and API, we make our work trusted and verifiable.
