If your sprays kick on at high noon, evaporation wins and fungus risk climbs. Most of the time the timer is simply set wrong — or the clock reset after a storm outage.
Quick checks on the controller
- Confirm AM/PM on the clock
- Check start times for each program (A/B/C)
- Disable extra start times you forgot about
- Replace the backup battery after outages
Sensible Houston run habits
Early morning starts are usually best. Exact minutes depend on head type, soil, and sun exposure — clay holds water differently than sandy beds near the coast. We reprogram timers during timer & controller repair visits and seasonal checkups.
