Sprinkler Heads In Southern California, a huge amount of outdoor water is wasted from systems that run too often, don’t water efficiently, or apply water unevenly. Choosing the right sprinkler heads—and placing them correctly—is one of the fastest ways to improve performance. Two concepts matter most: (1) deep watering (less often, longer run times when
Moisture Sensors Save up to 50% of water use and still keep lawns green and plants healthy How they help: Moisture sensors measure water availability at the root zone. Instead of watering “by the clock,” your system waters only when plants actually need it. Moisture sensors can reduce landscape water consumption dramatically in a very
Smart Irrigation Controllers & Moisture Sensors Smart controllers are irrigation timers that automatically adjust watering run times and schedules in response to changing conditions—helping reduce waste, runoff, and overwatering stress in your landscape. Quick takeaway: Smart controllers work best when your irrigation system is already set up efficiently (good head coverage, matched precipitation, and valves

Slope Runoff Slopes can waste a surprising amount of irrigation water. If too much water is applied at once, it can run downhill before it has time to soak in—leaving plants at the top under-watered and plants at the bottom over-watered. The common pattern: Water runs to the bottom of the slope, where it percolates
Using Rain to Conserve Water After a good rain, give your irrigation system a break and let the soil do the work. Deep moisture now helps build deeper roots and a more resilient landscape. Simple rule: Keep your irrigation controller off for as long as reasonable after rainfall. Let nature irrigate for you. Recent rains
