Control garden watering from anywhere with smarter scheduling, better water visibility, and less day-to-day guesswork.

The Connect SmartHome Smart Water Controller with Solar Power helps take the routine out of garden watering. Using the Connect SmartHome App, it gives you remote access to your water valve, scheduled watering options, and water usage feedback in one connected setup.

Designed for everyday home use, it combines app control, voice assistant compatibility, and solar-supported charging to make outdoor watering easier to manage across changing routines, seasons, and household needs.

Use cases and setup

This smart water controller suits households that want a simpler way to manage lawns, garden beds, potted plants, and general outdoor watering. It is especially useful when watering needs to happen at set times, during busy weekdays, or while away from home.

It can also help reduce overwatering by giving clearer control over schedule timing and valve position. For homes already building a connected setup, voice control through Alexa or Google Assistant adds another convenient way to manage watering without needing to be outside at the tap.

Compatibility and setup

The Water Controller works with the included gateway and Connect SmartHome App. The gateway should be connected first, then the Water Controller paired to the gateway. A 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network is required, and the Water Controller uses 2 x AA rechargeable batteries for operation and solar recharging support. Voice assistant compatibility supports Alexa and Google Assistant.

FAQs - Connect Smart Water Controller with Solar Power

Can I use this with my home Wi-Fi and control watering from the app?

Yes. The Water Controller works with the included gateway and the Connect SmartHome App. The gateway must be connected to the app first, then the Water Controller is paired to the gateway. For setup, use a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, as 5GHz networks are not supported.

What happens if there is not enough sunlight, and is it safe for everyday outdoor use?

The Water Controller uses 2 x AA rechargeable batteries for operation. In strong direct sunlight, the front solar panel helps power the device and recharge those batteries. For best results, install rechargeable batteries as recommended and follow the setup steps in the manual for normal outdoor household watering use.
