help Eve Aqua FAQ
Do I need a separate hub to use the Eve Aqua with my iPhone?
No, the Eve Aqua connects directly to your iPhone via Bluetooth and utilizes Thread networking, meaning it does not require a proprietary hub. However, adding a hub like an Apple TV 4K or HomePod mini will allow you to control the device remotely when you are away from home.
Can the Eve Aqua automatically skip watering if it is going to rain?
Yes, Eve Aqua leverages local weather forecasts through the Eve app to implement automatic irrigation adjustments. If rain is predicted, the system will intelligently skip the scheduled watering cycle to conserve water and prevent over-saturating your lawn.
What size of standard garden hose does the Eve Aqua fit onto?
The Eve Aqua is designed to screw directly onto standard 3/4-inch garden hoses and outdoor faucets. This standard threading makes installation incredibly straightforward, typically taking just a few minutes to set up before pairing it in the Apple HomeKit app.
How is the Eve Aqua powered, and how often do I need to charge it?
The Eve Aqua is powered by two built-in, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that charge via an integrated USB-C cable. A single charge typically lasts for several weeks or months depending on how frequently you run your watering cycles, and it will send a notification to your phone when power is low.
