Water smarter, not harder. We install Wi-Fi-enabled smart controllers and flow sensors that automatically adjust watering schedules based on real-time weather forecasts.
Smart irrigation on Martha's Vineyard adds Wi-Fi-enabled controllers and flow sensors that automatically adjust watering schedules based on real-time weather, soil moisture, and seasonal sunlight. Infinity Landscaping retrofits existing sprinkler systems with smart heads and Rachio, Hunter Hydrawise, or Rain Bird controllers - typically saving 30 to 50 percent on water usage while maintaining lawn and bed health.

What this page covers
Weather-adjusting controllers
We replace mechanical timers with Wi-Fi smart controllers (such as Hunter Hydrawise or Rachio). These systems monitor local weather feeds, automatically skipping water cycles if rain is forecast or adjusting runtimes during summer heat waves.
Flow sensor installation
Protect your property from water damage. We install inline flow sensors that monitor water usage. If the sensor detects an abnormal flow rate (indicating a broken sprinkler head or main line leak), it automatically shuts down the system.
Remote app management
Take control of your water from anywhere. Our smart systems allow you to monitor water usage, check zone status, adjust schedules, and manually turn zones on or off directly from your smartphone, tablet, or web browser.
Multi-zone water tracking
Track water consumption by zone. The control software compiles detailed usage logs, allowing you to see exactly how much water is applied to lawn areas vs. garden beds, helping you optimize water budgets and identify leaks early.

Environmental water savings on the Island
Martha's Vineyard has unique water challenges. Sandy soils require consistent moisture to sustain plants, but heavy irrigation puts pressure on our sole-source aquifer. Additionally, municipal water rates rise significantly during peak summer weeks.
Smart irrigation controls solve these problems. Traditional controllers run on rigid timers, watering the lawn even during heavy rain or wind. Smart systems evaluate live weather data, temperature, humidity, and forecast rainfall, skipping unnecessary cycles. This approach keeps your lawn and beds healthy, protects the Island's water table, and reduces water waste by up to 50%.
Process
Smart controller features we program
01
Predictive watering
Skip watering cycles if local weather forecasts show a high probability of rain within 24 hours.
02
Wind adjustments
Pause watering if wind speeds exceed a threshold (such as 15 MPH) to prevent water from blowing onto siding or driveways.
03
Freeze protection
Automatically lock out watering if temperatures drop close to freezing, protecting pipes and preventing sidewalk ice.
04
Cycle & soak
Split long watering runtimes into multiple short cycles separated by soak intervals, allowing sandy or clay soil to absorb water without runoff.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, smart controllers require a reliable home Wi-Fi connection to sync weather data and connect to the mobile app. We test the Wi-Fi signal at your controller site before installation. If the signal is weak, we can coordinate with local network partners to install signal extenders.
Most homeowners save between 30% and 50% on their seasonal irrigation water usage after upgrading to a smart controller and flow sensor. The savings are achieved by skipping watering cycles during rainstorms, reducing runtimes on cool days, and identifying leaks immediately.
If the internet connection drops, the smart controller will continue to run its pre-programmed schedule based on its last synced data. It will not freeze or stop watering; it simply pauses weather adjustments until the Wi-Fi connection is restored.
Yes. In most cases, upgrading to smart irrigation is a simple matter of replacing your old wall-mounted timer with a new Wi-Fi unit. The existing zone wires, valves, and sprinkler heads can be used without modification, making it a quick, high-value upgrade.
