Maintaining a beautiful and vibrant landscape involves proper watering. With our busy lives these days, who has time to manually water their lawn anymore? Smart technology has come to the rescue in many aspects of our lives, including lawn maintenance!

A smart irrigation system can be connected to your smartphone, meaning you can control your irrigation system from anywhere. Yes, even while you are on vacation! Smart irrigation systems can also detect the weather, so you can rest easy knowing that your irrigation system will never turn on while it is raining or after it has just rained. Below are some additional ways that a smart irrigation system will make your life a whole lot easier!

Watering At the Right Time

The early morning hours are the best time to water your lawn as this allows the water to soak deeply into the soil without evaporating under the mid-day sun. This will save you money because you won't lose a portion of your water to evaporation, causing you to use more for the same results. With a smart irrigation system, you can schedule the system to turn on at the same time every day so that you don't have to worry about watering your lawn before you head off to work.

Zoning Your Landscape

Adding different zones to your lawn and landscape will also save you water and money. Some plants don't need as much water as others do, so it doesn't make sense to water your whole property with the same amount. Talk about wasting water! Zoning your property will allow your smart irrigation system to deliver the right amount of water in each zone, depending on the type of plants you have and what they need to thrive.

Consider installing a smart drip irrigation system to conserve the most water! Drip systems deliver water directly to your roots to ensure you get the most out of every drop of water.
