Give Irrigation Systems the Rainy Season Off

Posted on March 20, 2018
eNews

We encourage all customers to turn irrigation systems off during the rainy season and particularly during evacuations prompted by rainfall.

After a 1/4 inch of rain, no irrigation is needed for 10 sunny days, and longer if the weather is cool or overcast.

Power outages may damage irrigation system controls and timers, causing erratic settings and / or leaks.

Conservation Counts! Thanks for being conscientious.
