    Q:How many sprinklers will each zone handle.
    by|Apr 29, 2024
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  This is determined by several variables: Static water pressure, service line size, and the flow rate of each head or sprinkler that will be used on each zone.

      Q:Why does water pressure go down in hose when I connect it to the timer ? Is there a way to increase the pressure through the timer ?
      by|Apr 27, 2024
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  If your hose timer is getting low pressure, then this may help. First, you'll want to flip the screen filter around, so that the cone is going into the timer instead of into the hose faucet. After this, you want to make sure that your timer is connected properly and not cross-threaded. Then you should test your timer to see if there was any improvement. It is entirely normal to see a small drop in water pressure/PSI/GPM when attaching a hose-end device, but our Orbit support team would be happy to help if you believe the drop to be too significant. We can be reached by phone at (800) 488-6156 or online at support.orbitonline.com. Have a great rest of your day.

        Q:Can you connect three hoses instead of four?
        by|Apr 22, 2024
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Yes, you do not need to use all four watering ports on this watering timer. As long as the empty port isn't added to any programs, you will have no issues using your timer in this way.

          Did not work correctly
          I bought a 2 Outlet Advanced Orbit Hose Faucet Timer. It was professionally installed to run two dripper systems. It's been nothing but trouble. The installer returned to fix the issues, and it is now leaking. We had an internal error, and now leaking from the piping and that section of pipe must replaced. The installer installs these at different locations and reports trouble with them more often than not. I do not recommend the 2 Outlet Advanced Orbit Hose Faucet Timer.

            My life saver.
            I’ve used these timers for probably 10 years. When they had the old style. I’ve had a few fail over the years, but I called Orbit and they sent me a new one every time. Their customer service is great. You do have to keep them inside if it freezes. I always disconnect them and put in the shop during the winter. I leave the lines in place with screens in hose ends. I also make a list of which zone goes where. I am getting my 5th one to hook up tomorrow. Yes, I have the need to add a 5th one.

              Junk
              No good, it eats batteries and won't work once the battery gets low so you'll need to be changing the AA batteries weekly. After one season I took it out of the garage to set it up getting ready for spring and it won't even shut off anymore total waste of money. I have a DIG timer as well it has more options runs on a 9v battery that will last all summer and still working for season two so I'll be buying more of those this year..

                Hard to install underground when it's outlet on top of each other rather by the sides
                The 2 outlets are on top each other's and extremely difficult to install underground.

                Hey there, We appreciate your feedback regarding our Orbit 4 outlet hose/faucet timer. Typically this is not meant to be installed underground as it is for hoses so typically those will be above ground. If you run into any issues or questions about your product we would love to help in any way we can. We can be reached by phone at (800) 488-6156 or online at support.orbitonline.com.

                Orbit 4 Hose Faucet Timer
                Bought this product on July 6, 2021. Took it out of the box today July 8, 2021, set the timer for a test. Hooked it to a hose, turned on the water and water came out of one of the hose connections with the timer not even installed. Another road trip.

                  Garbage product that corrodes beyond repair
                  I bought one of these at Home Depot. It worked for about 7 months and then quit working. Upon investigation the metal connections between the control unit and the water distribution unit had all sorts of not repairable corrosion. Stupidly I bought another one. This one lasted 4 days before it stopped working. Nothing would get it start operating right and then ONE week later it also had massive corrosion on the metal connections. I assume this due to water but I don't know how to keep a unit that is supposed to be outside perfectly dry when it rains once a week here. This product will cause you grief and I don't recommend getting it.

                    failed after 24 hours of use
                    I bought this product to keep constant moisture on my freshly seaded lawn. This worked great for about 24 hours until it failed while I was out of town. I came home to my backyard flooded, and the lawn seed fried in the 104° weather. I am not happy

                      Only worked for a few days
                      I was super excited about this product, set it up for the lawn and garden beds worked great then suddenly stopped working. Turns out after use some corrosion occurred between the two pieces, see pic. Not worth the $50, Save your money.

                        2 out of 4 outlets function out-of-the-box
                        I bought this at a retail Home Depot. Two out of the 4 outlets function. Outlets 1 and 4 will never turn on but at least they don't leak. Is there any quality control on this product? I'm going to have to say: No, these units are not tested until they are purchased and used by the consumer. Orbit should compensate me for the amount of time I have spent going to Home Depot, waiting in line to pay for the product, bringing it home and troubleshooting what I could possibly be doing wrong. This is absolute garbage.

                          Broken within 4 months
                          Under the maximum PSI, and yet in less than four months, the internal joint on one of the two outlets has broken.
