The biggest limitation is usually in how many zones the controller can run. For instance, if you buy a smart controller that is designed to run on six zones (maybe some different flower beds plus your lawn), and you want to add a new zone later (maybe you’re installing another flower bed), with certain systems, you’re out of luck. While some systems can be upgraded, others have zone limitations that can’t be changed.

There would be a lot of standing water in the yard or maybe a really noticeable leak with water spraying where it isn’t supposed to.

What sprinkler timer is best for my system?
The main limitation is typically the number of zones a controller can manage. For example, if you purchase a smart controller designed for six zones (perhaps different flower beds plus your lawn) and later decide to add a new zone (like another flower bed), certain systems won’t accommodate the extra zone. While some systems can be upgraded, others have fixed zone limits.
