FAQ

Where do I purchase an HSN plan for my golf course?

Talk to your local Authorized Hunter Golf Distributor or give us a call at 833-476-4653 (833-HSN-GOLF).

Can I purchase an HSN plan directly from Hunter?

No. All plans must be purchased through your Authorized Hunter Golf Distributor.

I have a pre-Pilot system. Can I purchase HSN for Surveyor/VSX?

No. At this time, HSN covers Pilot systems only.

Are the kit components under warranty?

Lightning- or surge-damaged components are not covered by warranty. If a defect in a Hunter product is discovered during the applicable warranty period, Hunter will repair or replace, at its option, the product or the defective part. For more information, please see the "Statement of Warranty" in our Golf Irrigation Product Catalog

What happens if my Pilot computer goes down?

Remember, Pilot is a download system. Your field controllers already have your most recent schedules and will run perfectly without the computer.

My computer is down and I need to make adjustments to my schedules. What do I do?

Don't worry! As a member of HSN, we will overnight a replacement computer to you. You can also make certain changes at the controller directly through the menu-driven interface, such as putting the controller on rain hold.

How long has Hunter been in the golf course irrigation business?

Hunter has been in the golf business for more than 20 years. We hold many patents on technical innovations for the golf industry.

I heard that your service used to be free. Why do I have to pay?

Hunter employs dedicated Field Service Managers throughout the United States. With the success of Pilot, there are more and more systems coming online. To maintain our standard of service, we must charge a nominal fee to provide support when and where you need it.

I have a Pilot Decoder system. How can you troubleshoot this by phone?

Pilot-DH controllers have advanced diagnostics. We can help you run some tests from the controller that will assist us with possible solutions. If on-site service is required, we will dispatch a technician to your golf course.

I've never used remote desktop assistance before. How does this work?

Every Pilot computer comes with an application that (with your permission only) allows you to share your computer screen with a Hunter technician. Call us to start a session. We will walk you through the process.
