How difficult is it to install a rain sensor?
It's about as complicated as installing a light switch.
What tools do I need to install a rain sensor?
Wire strippers, a ladder, the irrigation controller's owner's manual, and a basic understanding of electricity.
Where should I mount the rain sensor?
Mount the rain sensor in a place that is not obstructed from wind and rain, and will not get wet from any other source of water. One common place to mount the rain sensor is on the gutter near the controller.
DO NOT mount a rain sensor under the eave of a roof or anywhere else that will block the rain. DO NOT mount a rain sensor in the path of a sprinkler (i.e., don't mount a rain sensor where it will confuse your irrigation for rain).
