Rain Bird TRU8IW Timer & Smart WiFi Module Bundle — 8-Zone Indoor Controller

Overview

The Rain Bird TRU8IW bundle combines an 8-zone indoor timer with a preinstalled Smart WiFi module, delivering irrigation control you can reach from anywhere. Whether you’re at home, at work, or on the go, you can schedule, monitor, and tweak watering from the Rain Bird app or via compatible voice assistants.

Designed for indoor mounting, this compact system brings smart irrigation to residential landscapes with ease. It pairs a traditional program-based scheduler with modern connectivity, helping you manage multiple zones efficiently while keeping essential settings at your fingertips.

Flexible, program-based scheduling

Customize watering to fit each area of your yard. The controller supports distinct programming per zone, with flexible start times and run durations to match sun exposure, soil type, and plant needs.

• Up to 12 start times per zone across A, B, and C programs.
• Run times from 1 minute to 6 hours per event.
• Versatile automatic watering by days of week, odd/even calendar days, or 1–30 day cycles.

Control and convenience

With the preinstalled Smart WiFi module, you can control the irrigation from anywhere using the Rain Bird app. The system is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for voice commands, and it works with iOS and Android devices for broad accessibility.

• Manual Station waters a single zone, all zones, or a specific program.
• Non-volatile memory preserves programming during power outages; a built‑in battery keeps time and date.
• Professional features include interstation delay, rain sensor bypass by zone, and master valve/pump start relay control.

Efficiency, safety, and reliability

The bundle meets EPA WaterSense criteria for efficiency and performance, helping you optimize water use. The indoor enclosure is designed to protect electronics from moisture, insects, and grime, while built‑in surge protection guards against power events. Automatic troubleshooting highlights the affected valve when issues arise, keeping you informed without guesswork.

Performance you can count on

Season Adjust lets you increase or decrease watering times across all programs (or per program) by 5%–200%, enabling quick adaptation to seasonal changes. A rain delay option suspends watering for 1–14 days or can work in concert with a rain sensor (sold separately) for automatic delays and restarts. This bundle is designed to fit with most 24 VAC irrigation valves and comes with all necessary components to get you started quickly.
