Automatic watering system
The Groundskeeper is a smart, solar powered, automatic plant watering system. Rainwater from a water butt is pumped at pressure, through your existing plant irrigation system, ensuring consistent watering to the end of the irrigation line. The smart watering features save you time and water and prevent waterlogging and foliage damage.

The 50Wp solar array and 72Wh battery storage means you can set up a self contained watering system anywhere you have access to rainwater and sunshine, using the power of the sun to both grow and water your plants! It’s perfect for ensuring optimal watering of gardens, greenhouses, allotments, tree saplings and smallholdings.

Optimal times for watering
The innovative dawn/dusk watering programme ensures plants are watered at optimal times, avoiding scorching and minimising evaporation. Simply choose to have your plants watered once or twice a day, select duration then relax for the growing season. There’s no fiddly timers or watering time drift due to changing seasons.

Rainwater irrigation
Simply connect the Groundskeeper to a water butt, using the quality brass fittings provided, to use soft rainwater for watering your plants; It’s better for them than mains water and avoids hosepipe ban restrictions too! Don’t have a water butt or just prefer to use mains water? No problem, simply connect the Groundskeeper directly to your outdoor tap.

Clog free watering
Connecting directly to the water butt tap avoids drawing up sediment from the bottom (as can sometimes happen with submersible water butt pumps) and the washable, in-line, filter catches any fine sediment, preventing clogging of irrigation pipes.

Safer, more efficient watering
The Groundskeeper ensures the water butt lid can remain closed, minimising contamination by leaves, mosquito larva or unfortunate wildlife, as well as preventing evaporation. Using the Groundskeeper, rather than manually watering, with a watering can, water butt pump or hose, minimises water use and saves you time too!
