Take Control of Your Garden, One Zone at a Time

Give your garden a smarter watering routine with the RainPoint Wi-Fi Irrigation Controller (8 Zones). Designed for indoor installation, this intelligent irrigation controller lets you manage up to eight independent watering zones from one central unit.

Connect directly to your 2.4GHz home Wi-Fi network and use the RainPoint app to create watering schedules, start manual watering and manage your irrigation system remotely. Whether you’re looking after a large lawn, landscaped garden, vegetable beds or multiple outdoor areas, you can give each zone its own watering programme.

Key Features

  • 8 independent irrigation zones: Control up to eight separate garden watering areas from one controller.
  • Built-in Wi-Fi: Connect directly to your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network without needing a separate gateway.
  • Smartphone app control: Manage compatible irrigation functions through the RainPoint app.
  • Individual zone scheduling: Create up to eight watering programmes for each zone.
  • Weather-based watering: Use local weather information and rain-delay functions to help avoid unnecessary watering.
  • Manual watering: Start watering when needed without changing your existing schedules.
  • Cycle and soak watering: Use supported watering modes to help water penetrate the soil and reduce runoff.
  • Sensor integration: Supports compatible rain and soil sensors through its sensor connections.
  • Master valve support: Supports one additional master valve.
  • Voice assistant compatibility: Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Control Up to Eight Garden Zones

Divide your irrigation system into eight separately managed areas. Each zone can have its own watering schedule, making it easier to manage different plants, soil conditions and watering requirements.

For example, you can configure separate zones for:

  • Front lawn and garden
  • Back lawn and landscaped areas
  • Flower beds and shrubs
  • Vegetable garden
  • Hedges and established trees
  • Additional garden or irrigation sections

Smart Wi-Fi Control Through the RainPoint App

Connect the controller directly to your home Wi-Fi network and manage your irrigation through the RainPoint app.

  • Create and adjust watering schedules.
  • Manage each irrigation zone independently.
  • Start or stop manual watering.
  • Receive supported system notifications.
  • Manage your garden watering remotely.

Wi-Fi requirement: A compatible 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection is required for app connectivity. A separate RainPoint Wi-Fi Hub is not required for this controller.

Weather-Based Watering

Help your garden receive water when it needs it. The RainPoint controller uses supported local weather information and rain-delay functionality to help skip unnecessary watering during rainy conditions.

Seasonal adjustment features allow watering durations to be adapted to changing conditions throughout the year.

Compatible Sensor Integration

The controller supports up to two sensor connections for compatible RainPoint irrigation sensors. With the appropriate compatible sensors, your irrigation setup can respond to conditions such as rainfall and soil moisture.

Compatible sensors are sold separately. Check the exact sensor model and connection requirements before purchasing.

Designed for Wired Irrigation Systems

This controller is designed to operate compatible 24V AC solenoid valves. It can control up to eight irrigation valves and supports one additional master valve.

It is suitable for upgrading an existing compatible sprinkler system or setting up a new multi-zone irrigation installation.
