For Immediate Release

The Irrigation Innovators Introduce Solar Sync, the Latest Solution for Creating ET-Based Adjustments to Most of Your Hunter Irrigation Controllers.

San Marcos, CA––Nov. 11, 2008

Hunter Industries brings you the most contemporary, compact evapotranspiration (ET) sensor and module for use with most of Hunter’s commercial and residential irrigation controllers. The Solar Sync is an easy to use and install “smart” controller product that takes the work out of worrying about adjusting your irrigation system for changing weather and climate conditions.

Passing showers require a sensor that can react quickly. The Solar Sync sensor with Hunter’s patented Rain-Clik QuickResponse feature does just that. For soaking showers, the Rain-Clik sensor ensures your lawn isn’t watered unnecessarily. In addition, the built-in temperature sensor also ensures that your system does not water during freezing conditions. And if the sun is shining in, the solar sensor measures the sun’s rays to keep your lawn at peak performance with optimal watering.

The Solar Sync continually gathers solar and temperature data used in the calculation of ET, then determines irrigation watering requirements. The Solar Sync module automatically calculates these water requirements and makes seasonal adjustments to your controller taking into account on-site weather conditions.

Easily fitting inside of Hunter’s new Pro-C Conventional controller or next to the Pro-C and ICC controller, the Solar Sync is a highly efficient, super simple watering solution, able to be installed indoors or outdoors.
