The Rachio Smart Hose Timer Kit automates outdoor watering by replacing tedious hand watering with smart irrigation schedules controlled from your smartphone. This bundle includes two Smart Hose Timer valves and one WiFi Hub that can support up to eight valves total, allowing you to control multiple outdoor faucets from different locations around your yard.

Each Smart Hose Timer features an integrated flow meter that confirms water is flowing with just a few taps on the Rachio app. The system automatically skips scheduled watering programs when rain is forecast, conserving water while keeping plants healthy. Installation takes less than 10 minutes with quick setup through the smartphone app. The Timer Valve connects to standard outdoor spigots with 3/4 inch male hose thread (MHT) and attaches to garden hoses with 3/4 inch female hose thread (FHT).

Key features include app-controlled scheduling and quick runs, automated rain skip functionality, watering history tracking, and integration with Alexa, Google Home, and IFTTT. The WiFi Hub requires a 2.4 GHz WiFi network connection. Each valve requires two AA batteries (not included). The system is expandable to control targeted watering across multiple zones and faucets throughout your outdoor space.
