Water Smarter With Connected Controller Technology

Legacy Irrigation And Landscapes LLC installs WiFi-enabled smart irrigation systems in Oklahoma City.

You can manage your irrigation system from your phone, adjust schedules based on real-time weather data, and stop watering when rain is already falling. In Oklahoma City, where summer heat spikes and afternoon storms arrive without warning, a smart irrigation system responds to conditions automatically instead of running on a fixed timer. Legacy Irrigation And Landscapes LLC replaces outdated controllers with WiFi-enabled units that sync with local forecasts and soil sensors to deliver water only when your landscape needs it.

Smart irrigation upgrades include weather-based controllers that pull data from nearby weather stations, rain sensors that halt watering during storms, and moisture sensors installed in root zones to detect when soil is already saturated. You can also add flow sensors that confirm water is moving through the system and alert you to leaks or broken lines before they waste hundreds of gallons. These components work together to cut water use by up to thirty percent while keeping turf and plants healthier because they receive consistent moisture without overwatering.

If you want to lower your water bill and stop guessing when to water, reach out to Legacy Irrigation And Landscapes LLC in Oklahoma City to schedule a smart irrigation consultation.

Installation Includes Controllers, Sensors, And Remote Access

Your existing irrigation zones stay in place while we swap out the old controller and wire in a new WiFi-enabled unit that connects to your home network. In Oklahoma City, we mount the controller inside your garage or utility room to protect it from temperature swings, then install rain sensors on rooflines or fence posts and bury moisture sensors in active watering zones. The system links to a mobile app that lets you start or pause zones, adjust run times, and view watering history from anywhere.

After installation, you will notice your system stops running during rainstorms, skips watering when soil moisture is high, and automatically shortens cycles on cooler days. Your lawn stays green without standing water, and your water bill drops because the system no longer runs on days when watering is unnecessary.

We program the controller with your landscape type, sun exposure, and soil conditions so the system calculates correct run times without requiring you to adjust settings manually. Flow sensors are optional and send alerts if a pipe breaks or a valve sticks open. The system does not manage fertilization, pest control, or manual watering you do with a hose, but it handles all scheduled irrigation with minimal input once setup is complete.

Switching to a smart irrigation system raises practical questions about compatibility, cost, and how much control you retain over watering schedules, so we have included answers to the most common concerns below.

Questions Homeowners Ask Before Upgrading

What happens if my WiFi goes out?
The controller stores your last schedule and continues running zones on that program until the connection returns. You lose remote access temporarily, but watering does not stop.
How does the system know when to skip watering?
Weather-based controllers pull forecast data and historical rainfall totals from local stations, then calculate evapotranspiration rates to determine if soil moisture is adequate. Rain and moisture sensors provide real-time confirmation before each cycle starts.
Why would I add a flow sensor?
A flow sensor measures gallons per minute moving through your system and alerts you immediately if flow rate spikes or drops, which indicates a broken pipe, stuck valve, or sprinkler head failure. It prevents water waste and turf damage from hidden leaks.
When does the system adjust watering automatically?
The controller updates schedules daily based on temperature, humidity, wind speed, and recent rainfall. If conditions stay cool or rain falls overnight, the system shortens or skips the next cycle without requiring you to open the app.
What parts of my current system need to be replaced?
In most cases, only the controller and sensors are new. Your existing sprinkler heads, valves, pipes, and wiring remain in place unless you request zone expansion or repair at the same time.
