Sprinkler Controller and Timer Help in Salt Lake City

Sprinkler Controller and Timer Help in Salt Lake City

The lawn gets watered twice, a zone skips its turn, or the timer starts in the afternoon instead of the morning. It may be a setting rather than a failed controller. We help you sort out what the timer is doing and whether the problem is somewhere else in the system.

Call (385) 226-5764 or text us what you’re seeing.

What is the timer doing differently?

Write down any unexpected start times, skipped days, blank displays, or error messages. If a station won’t respond, note whether the other stations still work.

A small setting can change the whole schedule

An extra program, the wrong AM/PM setting, a rain delay, or a seasonal adjustment can change when water runs. Wiring, power, and valve problems can also look like a bad timer.

Take a photo before changing settings

Photograph the settings before changing them. Use your model’s manual to check the clock, date, active programs, and rain delay. Leave mains-voltage compartments closed, and keep watering restrictions in mind when checking sensor settings.

Get the controls working for you

We review the programs and test the stations, then help you set a schedule that fits the yard and your provider’s rules. If the controller needs replacing, we’ll discuss zone count, compatible equipment, and which features you’d use.

Three steps to getting it sorted

  1. Call or text with your city and what you’ve noticed. A photo helps if the problem is visible.
  2. Arrange a system check. Talk through the cause, repair options, and pricing before deciding on the work.
  3. Go over the result and ask what to watch for between visits.

Why does my system water the lawn twice?

An extra start time may repeat the entire station sequence. Check every program, even the ones you don’t usually open. Multiple cycles can be intentional for soaking, but they should match your watering plan.
