Rainwater Harvesting Facilitated by Acqua Vision Rain Sensor: Efficient Water Usage for Your Home or Garden
Smart Watering with Acqua Vision: Your Ultimate Rain Sensor
October 26, 2023
Ever wondered what happens to your garden's scheduled watering when a thunderstorm unexpectedly rolls in? The Acqua Vision rain sensor steps in to address this issue and prevent unnecessary water waste.
The Acqua Vision rain sensor is designed to squash your water worries by pausing the irrigation cycle during forecasted rain events. With hygroscopic discs that mimic the soil’s absorption capacity, it detects rainfall and deactivates planned irrigation cycles, saving water and money. The discs retain moisture after rain, mirroring the soil's dampness, thereby skipping additional watering in rainy weather.
To function, the Acqua Vision makes use of a Bluetooth 5.0 connection, sending a signal to the Controller to pause the irrigation cycle. Install it outside in your garden, maintaining a reasonable distance from obstructions like thick walls to ensure a strong Bluetooth signal. Avoid placing it indoors, under covered areas such as canopies, in the Valve box, or directly on the path of the sprinkler water jet. Instead, find an open, outdoor spot nearby the Vision Controller.
Here's the lowdown on where to—and not to—install your handy Acqua Vision:
Perfect locations:
- Exposed garden areas
- Close to the Vision Controller
Avoid these spots:
- Indoors or under covered areas
- Far from the Vision Controller
- Valve box
- Sprinkler water jet path
Like its fellow Vision battery-powered devices, the Acqua Vision boasts rechargeable batteries. A single charge can last up to a couple of years, depending on usage. We recommend recharging the lithium batteries via the supplied USB cable at the start of each new irrigation season.
