What is Certified Refurbished?

Each returned controller undergoes evaluation and hardware testing to ensure it can be returned to the field. Many of these are found to be “open box” and have never been installed.

Once any cosmetic or hardware issues are addressed, each unit gets the latest firmware installed and goes through a final inspection where we test all features and connections.

If the controller passes all tests, it is deemed “Certified Refurbished” and carefully packaged with all necessary components for sale here on rachio.com.

Understand Your Irrigation

Your sprinkler system is set up into zones that are activated from a controller. But it’s hard to remember which is which when they’re just wires connected to numbers. Rachio makes it easier to understand with images and names.

Simple Scheduling

The core function of any sprinkler controller is to run schedules at a pre-determined time. But your old controller might be difficult to navigate if you don’t have a manual handy.

Fixed Schedules

We’ll provide recommendations but you set specific days and times for your watering (this is helpful if you have watering restrictions).

Flex Schedules

We’ll provide updated watering schedules on a daily or monthly basis; great for those that want to set it and forget it.

Overseeding Schedules

Easily set up regular watering for supporting new growth in your lawn.

Scheduling Adjustments

Rain Skip
These activate if you have recently received a lot of rain or rain is expected soon

Seasonal Shift
This modifies your run times based on the season so that you’re not watering the same in the early spring and the heat of the summer

Heat Wave Boost
This premium feature recommends schedule adjustments based on your forecast.
