FAQ
Can I use it without Wi‑Fi?
Yes. The timer can be programmed and operated using Bluetooth without Wi‑Fi.
Do I need the Hub?
Only if you want:
Remote control from anywhere
Smart Watering
Automatic weather delays
Watering history
Can I program it without the app?
Yes. Basic schedules can be programmed directly on the timer.
This hose timer works best when programmed from the FREE B-hyve app.
Will it continue watering if internet goes down?
Yes. Saved watering schedules run locally on the timer.
Can each outlet have its own schedule?
Yes. Each outlet can be programmed independently.
What's a realistic range expectation section
3 - 100 feet is the expected working range.
Your range will vary depending on conditions.
Placing the Gen 2 Hub near an exterior wall
Thick walls, metal siding, and masonry may reduce range
Pumps, HVAC, and Electrical equipment may reduce range
A successful initial setup does not guarantee optimal remote connectivity. Closely monitor your timer for the first week or two to ensure connectivity.
Can it be left outside during winter?
If the temperature drops below freezing, then the timer should be brought indoors.
Item is not working correctly at all. It turns on when it’s supposed to everyday according to our set timer in the app but it will not shut off, we have to go out and manually turn off the water everyday to get the sprinklers off.
