Abstract: An apparatus and method for remotely controlling water sprinkling systems is disclosed. Computing devices such as smart phones, personal computers, and the like may be connected to the Internet and run programs to control water sprinkling systems. A controller may be provided that communicates with the computing device and activates and deactivates solenoids within an existing sprinkling system. The remote computing device is used to set parameters for watering schedules, etc. and communicate them wirelessly to the controller. The controller may also have access to the internet for local weather reports and activate or deactivate the sprinkling system based on the local weather reports.
