ET System Applications

Take the guesswork out of irrigation scheduling, by tracking your local microclimate and automatically calculating a scientific irrigation program! The Hunter ET System is an easy-to-add-on accessory (for any Hunter controller that operates with a SmartPort® system) that measures key climatic conditions, and uses them to calculate your local Evapotranspiration (ET) factor. The ET is then downloaded into your irrigation controller to create an irrigation program that is just right for your sprinkler system, plants, and soil conditions. By taking into account the rate at which water is consumed by weather conditions, the ET System will initiate a new schedule to replenish only the water that is actually needed. And Hunter's WiltGard™ technology can intervene to trigger protective watering when extreme conditions threaten your plants. The result is a dramatic savings in your water bill (about 30%, on average), healthier root zones, and your participation in conserving our precious natural resources.
