Insoma 2-Outlet Sprinkler Timer for Garden Hose — Brass Inlet/Outlet, Dual-Zone, IPX5 Waterproof

This two-station hose timer simplifies watering by letting you control two separate garden zones from one compact unit. With upgraded brass swivel fittings, a metal inlet filter, and an easy-to-read waterproof display, the Insoma timer is built for regular outdoor use. Choose automatic schedules, temporary manual watering, or pause routines with the rainy-day delay to avoid overwatering and conserve water.

How do I schedule and run two zones independently?

The Insoma timer provides independent programming for Zone 1 and Zone 2 so you can set start times, frequency and duration for each area. Schedules can be set to repeat every few minutes up to every several days, and each cycle duration is highly configurable to match plant needs.

• Program separate start times for Zone 1 and Zone 2.
• Set frequency from every 1 minute to every 7 days.
• Set watering duration per cycle from 1 minute up to 23 hours 59 minutes.
• Switch between single zones or both zones with the Zone button.

What makes the brass fittings and filter better for outdoor use?

Insoma upgraded the inlet and outlet to brass swivel fittings to resist deformation and handle high pressures more reliably than plastic. A built-in metal filter keeps sediment out of valves and hoses, reducing clogs and extending the life of downstream irrigation equipment.

• Brass inlet/outlet withstands pressures up to 116 psi.
• Swivel design simplifies hose connection and positioning.
• Internal metal filter blocks sand and debris from entering the system.
• Stronger than standard ABS parts for long-term outdoor exposure.

When should I use Manual mode or Rain Delay?

Manual mode lets you water on demand without altering programmed schedules, ideal for spot-watering or filling containers. Rain Delay pauses automatic schedules for 1–7 days when you expect wet weather, helping prevent unnecessary watering and conserve water.

• Manual watering from 1 to 59 minutes per zone.
• Rain Delay pauses programs for 1–7 days (user-set; no sensor included).
• Automatic schedules resume after the chosen delay period.
• Three operating modes: Auto, Manual, Rain Delay.

How durable and leak-resistant is this timer outdoors?

The timer features an IP55-rated, UV-resistant housing and rust-proof components to handle sun and rain. Leak protection includes multiple sealing washers, thread tape, and a gasketed battery compartment to keep moisture out and prevent drips at connections.

• IP55 splash protection and UV-resistant coating on the case.
• Sealing ring on battery cover to block moisture intrusion.
• Included sealing washers and thread sealing tape for leak-free connections.
• Operates across a wide pressure range (7.25–116.03 psi).

Who is this for? The Insoma dual-outlet timer is a solid choice for homeowners, allotment gardeners, and small-property managers who need reliable, flexible watering control for two separate areas. It fits standard 1/2" and 3/4" garden hoses, is simple to install, and balances advanced scheduling features with a rugged build—making it ideal for anyone wanting automated watering without complex controllers or wiring.
