Program Benefits
Be part of the water-saving solution. Water is essential for the life that we love – in addition to basics like drinking water and agriculture, it also fuels our recreation, businesses, and (of course) beer. In a semi-arid state like Colorado, it’s particularly important for each of us to play our part, however small, in conserving such an important resource. A Slow the Flow sprinkler evaluation will help you reduce your water waste by providing a customized watering schedule to help you water your lawn more efficiently. You could save up to 5,000 gallons of water per year while still keeping your lawn healthy, just by adjusting your sprinkler system.
Just like a car, your sprinklers need an occasional tune up. Without routine maintenance, they can end up wasting huge amounts of water!. Our sprinkler associates are here to help identify problem areas and efficiency issues. They’ll make minor adjustments to sprinkler heads so water is getting where it needs to, provide practical DIY sprinkler maintenance tips, and leave you with a list of tune-up recommendations so you know exactly what to tackle for your next weekend yard project! In addition, they’ll check the rate and distribution of water from your sprinklers to create a custom watering schedule for you.
Keep your money in your pocket (not on your lawn). For most homeowners, 30-70% of your summertime water bill comes from watering your lawn! With water bills shooting sky high each summer, we’re all looking for ways to cut back and save money. A Slow the Flow sprinkler evaluation will teach you how to adjust your watering schedule and will help identify areas of water waste. Simple adjustments to your schedule and sprinklers can lead to big savings over time, and we all know the true value of water is much higher than just the price you pay on your utility bill.
