September 2022 Newsletter: Outdoor watering tips, rebates, and more!
DID YOU KNOW? THE AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD USES OVER HALF OF THEIR WATER OUTDOORS.
One sprinkler head uses the same amount of water as your shower head.
So if you want to look for more ways to conserve water, look outside!
Signs you could be overwatering:
Does your foot leave a soggy, mushy, or matted imprint when you walk across your lawn?
Notice soggy or
stinky soil?
Find moss
or algae?
See water running
onto the sidewalk
or the street?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you could be overwatering!
Avoid overwatering by:
Fewer Days: Reduce the number of days you water
Shorten Cycle: Lower the amount of time you water your landscape
Cycle & Soak: Water in multiple, short cycles.
