| May is Water Awareness Month – Tune Up Your Spinklers! |
With summer coming, now's a good time to check your irrigation system to make sure it's using water as efficiently as possible. Run each zone, and adjust your spray heads so they aren't watering pavement instead of your lawn and plants. Also, set your sprinkler timer to only water in the pre-dawn hours to avoid unnecessary evaporation.
If your spray heads need to be replaced, consider purchasing rotating spray head nozzles and get a rebate for $4 per nozzle! Call (909) 267-2116 for a rebate application and information on where to purchase rotating nozzles.
Do you know how much water your landscape needs in the summer months? Less than you think! Click on the PDF below for a local watering schedule, and use it to adjust your sprinkler timer on a monthly basis.
Check out Monte Vista Water District's "Watch the Water" campaign information on this website for more information on rebates, outdoor landscaping and irrigation techniques, and tips on using water wisely. Even more information can be found at bewaterwise.com.
