What kind of sensors will be installed in the system?

Nowadays, most sprinkler systems are smart as they come with rain sensors installed in them. They are quite useful as they reduce the wastage of water to a great extent. When it rains, sensors sense it and turn off the sprinkler system. They let the rainwater be used for watering the garden. When the rainwater dries, sensors again turn on the sprinklers. This way, an undesirable sprinkling of water diminishes. So, always interrogate about the sensors and opt for the automatic sprinkler system with sensors only.
