Frequently Asked Questions
What is a robotic mower?
A robotic mower is an autonomous lawn mowing system that cuts your grass automatically without human intervention. These smart devices use advanced sensors and GPS technology to navigate your lawn, maintaining it consistently while you focus on other activities.
How does automated mowing work?
Automated mowing systems work by following pre-programmed patterns and schedules. The robotic mower maps your lawn, creates efficient cutting paths, and returns to its charging station when needed. Most models can handle slopes, obstacles, and various grass types.
What are the benefits of robotic lawn mowers?
- Save time and effort with fully automated operation
- Consistent, professional-quality cuts
- Quiet operation that won't disturb neighbors
- Environmentally friendly with zero emissions
- Mulching action improves lawn health
- Weather-resistant for year-round operation
How much maintenance do robotic mowers require?
Robotic mowers require minimal maintenance. Regular tasks include cleaning the cutting deck, replacing blades seasonally, and ensuring the charging station is clear. Most models are designed for low-maintenance operation with self-diagnostic features.
Can robotic mowers handle complex lawn layouts?
Yes! Modern robotic mowers can navigate complex lawns with multiple zones, narrow passages, slopes up to 35°, and various obstacles. Advanced models use GPS and smart mapping to efficiently cover every area of your property.
Are robotic mowers safe around pets and children?
Robotic mowers are designed with multiple safety features including lift sensors, collision detection, and automatic shut-off mechanisms. However, we recommend supervising young children and pets during initial operation periods.
What size lawn can a robotic mower handle?
Robotic mowers are available for various lawn sizes, from small residential yards (1/4 acre) to large commercial properties (several acres). We'll help you choose the right model based on your specific lawn size and complexity.
How long does installation take?
Professional installation typically takes 4-8 hours depending on lawn size and complexity. This includes boundary wire installation, charging station setup, initial programming, and comprehensive testing to ensure optimal performance.
What happens if it rains?
Most robotic mowers have rain sensors and will automatically return to their charging station when precipitation is detected. They'll resume mowing once conditions improve, ensuring your lawn stays perfectly maintained regardless of weather.
