Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

How long does this timer typically last?

Many customers report using these timers reliably for several years, with some mentioning 4–5 years before potential leaking occurs. One customer reports using them for over a decade. A few units have failed within their first year, though Orbit's warranty process typically addresses these issues.

Does the timer leak?

Most customers report the timer works without leaks when functioning properly. Some users have experienced leaking from the connection point, particularly after shipping damage or after several years of use. Orbit generally covers leaks under warranty.

Is it easy to use?

Yes—most reviewers praise the simplicity. You set the dial for your desired watering duration (15–120 minutes), and no batteries or programming are required. The large dial is designed to be accessible even with wet or gloved hands.

Does the timer actually stop the water?

Yes. Multiple reviewers confirm it shuts off water reliably after the set duration. Several mention it prevents accidental overwatering because it stops automatically even if they forget to turn off the hose.

Can you access water without removing the timer?

Yes. The timer has a manual bypass option that allows quick access to water without having to remove the timer from the hose.

What should I do to keep it working longer?

One reviewer notes not to let the timer freeze and avoid turning the dial counter-clockwise, as these practices can damage the mechanism. Units purchased directly from Orbit tend to arrive in better condition than those shipped through retailers with minimal packaging.

Does Orbit honor warranties on this timer?

Yes. Multiple reviewers praise Orbit's warranty replacement process, noting they respond quickly and replace faulty units with minimal friction. The company offers a 6-year warranty on this product.

This was actually a replacement for one that had failed after less than 60 days of service

This was actually a replacement for one that had failed after less than 60 days of service. They made getting a replacement so difficult it really wasn’t worth it. I’ve had these for several years and typically when I replace one, it is truly worn out that was not the case this time. But they certainly didn’t make it easy.

We are always making room for improvement and will be taking a further look into your conversations to see how we can make the replacement process easier.

Unreliable, and poorly packaged

This review is for a warranty replacement I received for a unit that had stopped working after about 5 months of occasional use. The replacement timer was shipped in a plastic bag, no box or protection for the timer itself. Upon opening the bag I could see a large nick in the male threaded connection. Sure enough, when I attached it to the hose bibb the nick prevented a seal and water was dripping out of the connection in a continuous stream. In my book, 2 strikes and you're out. The replacement unit went in the trash and I'm done with trying to rely on this "simple" but unreliable timer.

Thank you for letting us know how one of our Hose Timers arrived to you in poor packaging and about the threaded connection having a large cut. Someone from our Customer Care team will be following up with you about your order. Have a great rest of your day.

Good warranty

I bought a two-pack of wind-up garden hose timers. One stopped working. I learned that Orbit covered it with a generous 6-year warranty. I notified the company of my problem (actually called them to see if there might be a possible repair option) and they immediately sent me a new unit that I received only a couple days later. I felt that was very good customer service!

great customer service

The ones I received directly from Orbit work perfectly

The ones I received directly from Orbit work perfectly. Others, that I have purchased from a home improvement store leak. I'm sure it's because of the packaging from Orbit. they are thrown into a box loose and probably banging around each other which causes them to get beat up and leak.
