August is hot. And customers
are encouraged to follow the summer watering recommendations below. But
remember that if it rains, count that day as one of your watering days and cut
back on supplemental irrigation.
Remember to service your irrigation
system at least once per month, checking for leaks and malfunctions. A single
broken sprinkler head flowing at 15 gallons per minute will waste 900 gallons
in just one hour of use.
