Hunter Rain-Click Rain Sensor for Irrigation Hardwired, Quick Response

Smart rain-aware irrigation with the Hunter Rain-Click

Meet the Hunter Rain-Click Rain Sensor, a compact hardwired device designed to respond to weather in real time. Rather than waiting for a preset rainfall total, this sensor recognizes precipitation as it begins and communicates with your irrigation controller to pause watering when it matters most. The result can be a more efficient use of water and a cleaner, more consistent landscape when storms roll in.

With built-in Quick Response technology, the Rain-Click can command a controller to shut off right when rain starts. This proactive behavior helps reduce runoff and avoids the telltale sign of overwatering on lawns, beds, and public landscapes. Its a sensible addition for homes, businesses, and municipalities that value responsible irrigation without sacrificing curb appeal.

Flexible mounting for real-world setups

The sensor is designed for versatile installation. You can mount it on an eave or on any flat vertical surface such as a wall or fence. For projects that run along roof edges, a gutter mount is also available to simplify installation exactly where rain is most likely to be detected.

Key benefits at a glance

• Immediate rain detection that stops irrigation as rain begins, reducing unnecessary watering.
• Multiple mounting options (eave, wall, fence, or gutter edge) for flexible placement.
• Hardwired integration that works with your existing irrigation controller for straightforward setup.

Practical, real-world use cases

In homes, offices, or municipal sites where conserving water matters, the Rain-Click helps align irrigation with actual weather conditions. It complements forecasts and schedules by providing a real-time interruption if a storm arrives, helping maintain landscape aesthetics even after rain events.

How it works and what to expect

When rainfall is detected, the sensor communicates with the irrigation controller to interrupt the circuit. The result is a rapid pause in watering, which can reduce overspray and soil saturation during wet periods. There are no changes to your programming beyond the protective rain trigger.

Why choose Hunter
