Do you really care about how much irrigation water you use?

If you don't, you should. On the news last night they showed that even with the rain we've had this year and the floods from last September we are already experiencing drought conditions. We should pay attention to our outdoor watering habits. If everyone followed some simple rules, we would save a lot of water. First, water early morning or late evening never during the middle of the day. Secondly, be sure you have a rain sensor to prevent your system from running during rain. Is there a lot of water on your side walk or street? Adjust your sprinkler heads to avoid run-off. Simple steps can make huge impacts on our outdoor water usage.
