FAQ About Pros and Cons of Automatic Watering Systems

While automatic watering systems offer many advantages, there are potential downsides to consider. One issue is the upfront cost, which can be higher than traditional watering methods. Additionally, they require routine maintenance to ensure components such as emitters, tubes, and controllers function properly. These systems may also fail due to power outages or technical malfunctions, potentially resulting in under-watering or over-watering if not monitored closely.
