Why Should I Care About Accurate Irrigation?
Research has proven that over-watering is not only costly, but it also
threatens the life of your landscape.
Over-watering leads to poor plant health and disease. It also dramatically
increases water bills, depletes precious water supplies and creates
runoff pollution, endangering local watershed areas and beaches.
In many cases, landscapes become conditioned to inaccurate irrigation.
Often times the plants have adjusted to inconsistent watering and have
developed survival mechanisms such as shallow rooting.
