How I Built My Own Sprinkler System and Saved $12,000
Are you tired of spending hours watering your lawn manually? In this video, I show you how to upgrade your lawn care by installing a DIY underground sprinkler system using Rainbird products and a Rachio smart controller. I'll share my experience and provide step-by-step instructions on how I installed the system, including digging trenches, installing sprinkler heads, connecting everything to the main water supply, and installing the Rachio controller. I'll also show you how to use the Rachio app to turn on each zone and test each sprinkler head to make sure everything is working properly. Stick around for my costs and review of the Rainbird products and Rachio controller, including pros and cons. And to help you keep your lawn looking its best, I'll also share some spring lawn maintenance tips.
