FAQ
How do I know if I can use FarmHQ on my irrigation equipment?
FarmHQ can be installed on almost any irrigation pump, solenoid-actuated valve, hard hose reel irrigator, linear move, and center pivot system. If you would like to discuss the specifics of your operation with one of our engineers, please contact us.
Is FarmHQ under warranty and what does this cover?
FarmHQ warrants to all customers that our products are free from defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty period begins on the date of shipment and expires one (1) year from the date of shipment.
If you encounter any issues, simply ship the defective device back to us within the first 12 months, including a copy of your purchase receipt and a detailed description of the problem. Upon receipt, we will assess the issue, and if within the warranty period, you will have the option to receive an updated device or a full refund.
Can I use FarmHQ for monitoring only?
Yes. FarmHQ provides real-time status monitoring and alerts for a broad range of irrigation equipment and having remote control enabled is not necessary for the system to provide significant value.
What are the main benefits that FarmHQ can provide me and my operation?
FarmHQ provides significant financial savings to operations of any size by reducing labor requirements, cutting down on unnecessary excess use, and preventing flooding and lost time when problems occur with the mechanical aspects of the irrigation. FarmHQ lets you get updates on your irrigation in real time, so you know when a run is complete - and when it’s not. When connected to a pump or valve, FarmHQ can automatically stop water flow any time a problem, such as pressure loss or lack of movement, is detected. That prevents crop damage, saving water and reducing pumping costs. Better monitoring and control mean big savings. Many of our customers tell us that these features also help cut down on stress and improve their sleep.

What cellular service do I need to use FarmHQ?
