What we fix on Rachio systems

  • install a Rachio 3 or Pro Series unit and get it on Wi-Fi
  • set up the app, zone details, schedules, Rain Skip and seasonal shift
  • troubleshoot wiring, solenoids, master valve and pump-start relays on zones that won't run
  • interpret Valve Monitoring alerts and replace the bad solenoid
  • swap a failed controller for a new one and re-create the schedule
  • share controller access with the homeowner from a pro account

Rachio problems we see most

  • controller offline / Wi-Fi drops (blended 2.4/5 GHz or mesh networks, changed router password)
  • 'Zone Fault Detected' or controller shutting down from excess current on a zone (wiring or solenoid)
  • zone won't run or runs dry: wiring, solenoid, master valve or pump relay setup
  • wrong zone soil/nozzle settings causing over- or under-watering on Flex schedules
  • rain-skip or weather-station settings skipping watering unexpectedly
  • DC transformer or power issues (Rachio requires its AC adapter)
  • loss of schedule after a factory reset
