Hunter Industries’ New Wireless Valve Link Now Available: KAR UK is excited to announce the arrival of the Hunter Wireless Valve Link. Designed to simplify irrigation projects of all sizes, this innovative accessory eliminates the need for traditional wiring, offering landscape professionals and contractors a faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective way to manage valve control.

As a cutting-edge wireless add-on for the Hunter ICC2 and HCC controllers, the Wireless Valve Link allows for seamless communication directly to the valve box—completely wire-free. It’s a powerful tool for those looking to extend or install irrigation systems without the time, cost, or disruption that trenching and copper field wiring often require.

A Smarter, Simpler Way to Work

At the heart of the Wireless Valve Link is LoRa® technology, a licence-free communication system that’s both robust and reliable. It enables connection to up to 54 individual stations plus a master valve, with a line-of-sight range of up to 650 metres—or even further when used with a repeater.

By removing the need for copper wiring, the system not only slashes installation time and expense but also avoids common wired-system issues such as wire degradation and lightning damage.

Key Benefits at a Glance:

Wireless Valve Control: Eliminates the need for copper field wiring, enabling installations across difficult terrains and hard surfaces.

Efficient Setup: Avoid cutting into concrete or boring under paths—ideal for retrofit projects or sensitive landscapes.

Advanced Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly with Hunter’s Centralus™ and Hydrawise™ platforms, and works alongside ICM or EZDS modules for a fully tailored system.

Flexible Expansion: Add new zones or areas without returning to the controller or disturbing existing infrastructure.

Installation, Without the Headache

Whether working on residential gardens or large-scale commercial sites, the Wireless Valve Link enables contractors to work smarter. With no hardwiring required, installation becomes more straightforward and less disruptive—especially in areas with existing hardscapes, roads, or tree roots.

This new solution allows for cleaner, more scalable system design, making it ideal for projects where adaptability, speed, and reliability are critical.

Now available from KAR UK, the Hunter Wireless Valve Link brings the future of irrigation control to the present—streamlining installations, enhancing reliability, and giving professionals more flexibility than ever before.

The world’s only Wi-Fi irrigation decoder system

The world’s only Wi-Fi irrigation decoder system: Toro keeps innovating irrigation management with the launch of the Tempus Decoder System, the world’s first Wi-Fi-enabled decoder solution.

Developed to provide stadium managers and grounds teams with a smarter way to control irrigation, the system simplifies installation and minimises wiring costs with a unique wireless interface.

The world’s only Wi-Fi irrigation decoder system

At the heart of the system is the Tempus 2-wire interface, which seamlessly converts a Tempus controller into an essential 2-wire system – eliminating the need for multiple cables thanks to its Wi-Fi communication. The decoders receive instructions from the interface, activating the connected sprinklers to deliver precise and impeccable irrigation control.

This modular design, with a main interface that communicates wirelessly with multiple decoders, makes Toro’s solution remarkably easy to scale. Additional decoders can be integrated at any time, linking to the main system through a simple Wi-Fi connection, allowing users to manage up to 48 stations with a single controller.

The result is a future-proof irrigation solution that adapts to evolving turf needs and can be expanded in no time with minimum costs.

“With the Tempus Decoder System, Toro is bringing simplicity and efficiency to turf irrigation,” says Robert Jackson, Division Manager, Reesink Hydro-Scapes. “Turf managers need solutions that not only optimise water usage but make their jobs easier. This system reduces installation complexity while delivering the reliability and performance Toro is known for.”

By leveraging Wi-Fi connectivity, the Tempus Decoder System also enables users to control their irrigation system remotely, making real-time adjustments as needed. This combination of convenience, flexibility and Toro’s trusted innovation makes it the ideal solution for modern turf management.

With smart irrigation technology that saves time, reduces labour and enhances water efficiency, the Tempus Decoder System represents the next generation of turf irrigation control for sports venues.

To find out how your system can be upgraded quickly with fewer cables and to adopt remote access irrigation control, call 01480 226948, email info@reesinkturfcare.co.uk or visit reesink-hydroscapes.co.uk today.
