Lawn Sprinkler Water Efficiency

What's the latest in irrigation system efficiency products? Wireless soil sensors! These sensors are placed in each irrigation zone and they measure moisture and temperature at the root level. Information is transmitted in real time 24 hours a day to a base station that works in conjunction with the existing irrigation controller.
The base station determines when your grass and/or plants have reached their optimum moisture level in each zone. The soil sensors' accurate information only allows the watering the plants need. This means a reduction in wasted water and possibly your water bill!

Been receiving a lot of emergency calls lately because the irrigation systems don't have separate shut offs or double check backflow preventors which would allow you to turn your system off in the event of a "water" emergency. So, while have your irrigaiton systems repaired, ask your irrigation technician if you have a way to shut off your system in an emergency and if not, at least get a gate valve installed to shut off the water. Your only other choice will be to cut off all the water, including that to your house, if you have an lawn sprinkler issue.
