The Galcon 9001BT Bluetooth Hose End Timer offers the perfect blend of smart-home convenience and reliable landscape hydration. Designed specifically for outdoor spigots, small gardens, and balcony planters, this battery-powered controller allows you to program complex watering schedules directly from your mobile device via Bluetooth. It is incredibly user-friendly and eliminates the need to crouch in the dirt to adjust a dial. Simply attach your mainline tubing using standard irrigation fittings, and let the timer do the heavy lifting.
While the app allows you to control the unit from 14 to 90 feet away (depending on surroundings), the 9001BT also features a clear digital LCD display and physical buttons for quick, on-the-spot manual overrides. With weekly, daily, and cyclic programming options, this water timer provides unparalleled flexibility for establishing seedlings, maintaining lush patio plants, or running a dedicated drip system.

Get your smart hose timer running in minutes.
Step 1: Install the Battery
Remove the battery compartment on the front of the timer. Connect a fresh 9-Volt alkaline battery and securely replace the cover to ensure weather resistance.
Step 2: Attach to Faucet
Ensure the screen filter is in place inside the female inlet. Thread the timer directly onto your garden spigot or hose bib. Hand-tighten only to prevent damaging the plastic threads.
Step 3: Connect Head Assembly
Thread your downstream components (like a vacuum breaker, filter, pressure regulator, and hose start adapter) onto the male outlet at the bottom of the timer.
Step 4: Pair & Program
Download the Galcon app to your smartphone. Turn on Bluetooth, pair with the timer, and use the intuitive interface to customize your watering schedule.
Is this timer compatible with drip irrigation systems?
Yes, absolutely. By attaching a hose thread pressure regulator and an adapter to the bottom outlet, you can easily connect this timer to any standard drip irrigation mainline tubing.
How far away can I control this timer from my phone?
The Bluetooth range is typically between 14 to 90 feet. This varies based on your line-of-sight and physical obstructions like brick walls or metal siding.
What battery does the Galcon 9001BT use?
It requires one 9-Volt industrial alkaline battery for operation. We highly recommend using a brand-new, high-quality name-brand battery to ensure reliable performance all season.
Can I set multiple watering times per day?
Yes, you can program up to 4 distinct start times per day, allowing for flexible watering schedules that are perfect for establishing new seeds, cooling off plants on hot days, or running a cyclical drip system.
Do I need to remove this timer in winter?
Yes. To prevent damage caused by freezing water expanding inside the plastic casing, you must remove the timer from the spigot, drain any residual water, and store it indoors during freezing winter temperatures.
