Smart Irrigation

As we approach summer, many irrigation systems will be turned on. Follow these steps to help maintain a healthy yard and conserve water.

STEP 1:

Routinely check and repair pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads to make sure there are no leaks. Click here for a checklist to help you walk through each zone of your irrigation system and inspect for signs of water waste

STEP 2:

Run your irrigation system no more than three times per week. This will give your grass a deep root system, making it stronger and more drought resistant. If you are not sure how long to run your system visit BeyondtheDrought.com to create a personalized watering schedule.

STEP 3:

Avoid over-watering by checking the soil moisture. Use a moisture-meter or insert a screw driver into the lawn. If the screwdriver can go in by more than three inches, the lawn doesn't need to be watered.

Want to find out how much water your irrigation system uses each time it run? Use AquaHawk to monitor your water use, view an estimated bill and set-up customized leak alerts. To learn more, visit  EnviroWoodland.org/MyWaterUse.
