help Hydrawise HC-12i FAQ
How many zones does the Hydrawise HC-12i support?
The Hydrawise HC-12i supports up to 12 individual watering zones, making it suitable for medium-to-large residential or light commercial landscapes. Each zone can be independently programmed with custom schedules, plant types, and soil settings.
Does the Hydrawise HC-12i require a monthly subscription for smart features?
Hunter offers a free tier of Hydrawise software that includes remote control and basic scheduling via Wi-Fi, but advanced features like predictive weather-based watering adjustments require a paid subscription plan. The upgrade enables automatic suspension based on local rainfall forecasts and freeze detection.
Can the Hydrawise HC-12i connect to a rain sensor or flow sensor?
Yes, the HC-12i supports wired sensor inputs for Hunter rain sensors, soil moisture sensors, and flow sensors that can detect leaks or broken pipes. When a flow sensor detects an anomaly, the controller can automatically shut down the affected zone to prevent water waste.
Does the Hydrawise HC-12i work without an active internet connection?
The controller will continue to run its last-synced watering schedule even if Wi-Fi drops, but you will lose remote access and real-time weather adjustments until the connection is restored. Local manual control is still possible using the interface on the unit itself.
