The nozzle performance tables provide reference values so you can compare your home water supply measurements and set realistic expectations. Start by measuring your water pressure and flow rate, then work through each section in order \u2014 most users improve their reach significantly after the first few checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the maximum watering distance of IrriSense 2?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About 12 m (39 ft) one way is the ceiling, measured by Aiper in wind-free laboratory conditions, so treat it as a best case rather than a typical result. A reach somewhere between 8 m (26 ft) and 12 m is normal for a home setup. If yours stays below 8 m, the water path is usually the cause \u2014 see the next question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is my IrriSense only reaching 8 m (26 ft) or less?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A reach below 8 m typically indicates resistance in the water supply path. The most common causes are: a hose longer than 15 m, an expandable hose, a kinked or flattened hose, a clogged nozzle, low household water pressure, or a backflow preventer reducing flow. Run through the five checks in this guide (hose, nozzle, household pressure, app settings, and wind conditions) before contacting support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which nozzle should I use \u2014 Standard or Jet?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your model includes both nozzles, start with the Standard Nozzle and compare your result with the Standard Nozzle table. Switch to the Jet Nozzle only if the measured reach stays short of the table values, because it concentrates the stream for distance rather than balanced coverage. Which nozzles you have depends on your model and region, so check the accessories in the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I measure my water pressure and flow rate?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use a water pressure gauge on your outdoor faucet to measure pressure. For flow rate, time how long it takes to fill a bucket of known capacity, then use the formula: Flow Rate = Bucket Volume \u00f7 Filling Time in Seconds \u00d7 60. This gives you liters per minute, which you can compare against the nozzle performance tables in this guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does wind affect IrriSense watering distance?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, wind can significantly shorten the effective watering distance and change where the water lands. For the most accurate range testing and initial mapping, operate IrriSense in low-wind conditions such as early morning or calm midday periods. During daily watering, some variation is normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aiper IrriSense 2 Under suitable water supply and environmental conditions, IrriSense can achieve a maximum one-way watering distance of approximately 12m(39 ft).
