WATER SMART TIPS

Lawn Watering

·    Water your lawn only when it needs it;
·    Water only during the cool part of the day, this is better for your lawn and reduces evaporation loss;
·    Deep soak your lawn rather than applying a light sprinkling;
·    Do not over water – a good rule of thumb is ½ inch of water (measured in a tin can or other container) twice a week.

Other

·    Use a broom, not a hose, to clean driveways and sidewalks;
·    Do not run the hose while washing the car;
·    Install inexpensive nozzles on all hoses to allow you to use water only when you need it;
·    Check for leaks in pipes, hoses, faucets and couplings to keep them drip free.
