Automatic Tap Timer with Rain Sensor Reviews

4.5 Rating 130 Reviews
Having tried and wasted money on several tap timers for one of the gardens in our Strata block, the Hoselink model may be the one that we use for them all. Well-priced, and with an operating system that is not too difficult for owners to learn, the Hose Link Tap Timer was able to be connected to our existing tap and irrigation system. This is still an evaluation process for us, but so far so good. The only thing that has been difficult has been trying to read to screen. Because of the positioning of our taps, we have to actually sit on the ground to set the various programmes.The position of the sun can also make it difficult to read the screen. Holding something to shield the sunlight seems to work. The YouTube demo video made it look easy, but we had a minor problem before we realised one of the key buttons had to be pressed multiple times for the correct setting. The man demonstrating set the thole thing up before actually connecting it to the tap. You cannot be doing that in real life.I printed a screen shot from YouTube to give is a large view of the screen to make the setup easier. If all continues to be well, we will invest in a few more.

This timer, with three programs, combined with the 'Mini Sprinkler Kit' is of great quality and has been a lifesaver for my alfresco pot plants and me - knowing they are regularly watered when not well, in hospital or away. Wonderful onshore tech team to guide you through installation. . They understand and get it! : )

Really good thank you. I would like to be able to download an editable .pdf of the instructions, so I can print part out and leave near the tap for people who can't work out how to turn the water on.

Have to renew it after about 3 years but I love it as I can’t get out of the house to do things I would like to do.

Easy to set up for regular watering days and duration, and the rain sensor cancels the watering event so as not to waste water.....and the display goes to sleep to save battery when not needed. Robust and sturdy . The staff are great to deal with if you have any issues .. very happy
