Rachio works with the Google Assistant

Here at Rachio, we’re more than a little obsessed with new technology (don’t worry, it’s not technically a mania); so naturally, we couldn’t wait to get you watering with the Google Assistant.

The voice platform powering Google Home, the Google Assistant enables you to control your sprinkler system using more than 48 voice commands – one more way you can manage watering from anywhere.

Just connect your Rachio controller to the Google Assistant to start making requests. Take advantage of the newest wave of hands-free watering control with simple commands, like, “Ok Google, tell Rachio it’s raining,” or “Ok Google, ask Rachio to water the front yard flowers.”

Additionally, there are three Google-exclusive commands you can use to run all zones, run a specific schedule – or even request your daily watering status.
