Summer is in Full Swing!

I don't know how things are where you're at, but where I live summer is in full swing. It's super hot and my garden is in full production mode! Which for me means lots of watering with all the heat we are having. The kids may have gone back to school, but that doesn't mean it's the end for weekend trips to enjoy the plentiful sunshine!

The Orbit B-hyve XD Hose Faucet Timer connects to any standard hose faucet, providing the ultimate smart yard controls for any tech savvy homeowner.

Notable features on the XD Hose Faucet Timer: 

  • Smart customization – Options range from using Smart WeatherSense technology that adjusts based on weather predictions and environmental characteristics to your own basic manual timing schedules.
  • Simpler connectivity built for the unpredictable – Through Bluetooth, users can pair Android and iOS devices directly with the timer (WiFi connection is available by adding the B-hyve Hub). If any connection issues occur, the XD Hose Faucet Timer stores the program and will continue to run as scheduled.
  • Multiple port devices and extensive range – Users can create multiple watering zones by connecting additional XD Hose Faucet Timers; the timers also network together to boost the signal strength -- and coming in Q3, the XD Hose Faucet Timer will be available in two-port and four-port devices, enabling users to water multiple stations from one location.

Of course once you're done with your hose you'll want to be sure you get it up and out of the yard before mowing time. There's nothing worse than having to stop mowing in the middle of the yard to pick of a hose that's been left out and still full of water. The easiest way is with a water hose reel that's on wheels so you can move it wherever you like. I speak from experience when I say the convenience alone makes high quality hose reels worth the price. Just wrap the hose around the center part and you're ready to wheel it away until you need it again.
