'Zilker' is a smart gardening device that helps consumers reduce home water consumption. With a significant portion of each home's water use reserved for the outdoors, there is a growing need for devices that help reduce water waste. This tool eliminates water inefficiencies to ensure that consumers are not using any more water than they need to.
Zilker is a drop-in water value that adds a number of smart features to any hose or manual sprinkler. The device itself include a small hub that is designed to communicate with the accompanying values fitted onto each hose. Once installed, the flow is controlled automatically based on a schedule determined by the user and local weather conditions. Users can also use the iOS app to manually control the delivery from each valve.
The smart device is a simple way for users without connected sprinkler systems to reduce their home water consumption.
