The Toro® Multi-Program Automatic Timer Saves Water and Time
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (Spring 2011) - Adding an automatic timer to your drip irrigation system is the easiest way to save time and resources, all while helping you comply with regional watering restrictions. With the new Toro® Multi-Program Automatic Timer, you can set your watering schedule once, then sit back and enjoy the beautiful results all season long.
The new timer, created to work with Toro Blue Stripe® Drip irrigation, quickly installs onto any standard outdoor hose faucet and features easy step-by-step programming that allows you to create the best watering schedule for your garden. Homeowners can choose from eight preset watering cycles, calendar watering for day specific programming, or customize the schedule to water only when it's right for the area.
“If you have watering restrictions in your area, a timer is essential,” says Laura Lopez, senior channel manager for Toro's Retail Water Business. “You can set the timer to water only on certain days and times to make sure you're following the local watering restrictions. You'll be amazed at the time you save and how great your plants will look. With an automatic timer, there is no turning your hose on and off, and no worries about forgetting to water,” adds Lopez.
The timer is really a big water saver as well. Just set it for the right amount of watering time and it automatically shuts off. No more overwatering because you forgot to turn off the hose.
The new Multi-Program Automatic Timer also features a display lock and weather resistant cover. Look for the new timer, for around $29.99 (USD), this summer at select The Home Depot™ stores and ShopToro.com
