As people are looking for ways to be "green" as well as saving money and saving water, there is often one area that they overlook-their irrigation systems. One of the best ways to "tune up" your irrigation system is to have our irrigation company perform an irrigation audit. An irrigation audit consists of measuring and collecting data from the irrigation system on precipitation rate, uniformity and other metrics. This irrigation audit information is then compiled and presented to determine effective ways to make the irrigation system more efficient. When having an irrigation audit performed, it is important to find a qualified irrigation company. Our irrigation company, April Showers, has employees on staff with national certifications in irrigation auditing.
Over 50% of outdoor water use is tied to lawn watering. With an irrigation audit, we can eliminate water waste which results in a healthier lawn, healthier plants, and a lower water bill. The average irrigation audit takes approximately 2 hours and when completed, you get a report detailing the findings including water usage, areas to save water, as well as any other inefficiencies in the irrigation system. Our customers are always amazed at the amount of money they can save with a relatively small investment in an irrigation audit.
