Excellent and easy to use water timer
Works great, I bought 2 last year for use in my vegetable garden with drip hoses. Simple and Easy to program. I have it sent to water twice a day (Every 12 Hrs) 30-Mins at 6am & 30-Mins at 6pm. A Word of Caution: Most battery operated water timers on the market today utilize a instant on plunger valve which means your watering hoses and piping as an instant pressure surge which can damage your rupture water lines and fittings causing leaks. To remedy this and help protect from water hammer damage it is highly recommended to also install a "Sioux Chief 660-HB Water Hammer Hose Arrestor, 3/4-Inch" same as water hose end fittings. Easily Installed Water Hammer Artester on the inlet side of the water timer and you'll be good to go.
