Frequently Asked Questions
Who can use a Rachio Smart Sprinkler Controller?
Rachio works with most in-ground irrigation systems and comes in 4, 8, and 16-zone options. You’ll just need strong Wi-Fi where the controller is installed and a smartphone for setup. If you use a pump start relay, an extra part may be required.
Can I share my controller with others?
Yes! You can give access to family members, a lawn care service, or your gardener so they can view or adjust schedules through the Rachio app.
Can the controller be installed outdoors?
Yes, but you’ll need Rachio’s outdoor enclosure (sold separately) to protect it from the elements. Indoors, it can be mounted directly.
Can I install the controller myself?
Most homeowners can handle installation in under 30 minutes with basic tools. The app provides step-by-step instructions, and professional installation is always an option if you’d prefer help.
