Residential Information and Benefits for Sprinkler Systems

Sprinkler systems are widely used in areas that have relatively low amounts of rainfall for one or more seasons and very hot summers.  Anyone living in Houston knows how severely hot our weather can get, and that it lasts for over half of the year.  The beautiful landscaping or just plain green grass you desire becomes difficult to impossible to achieve without adequate watering.  So, break out the water hose and spend two hours every evening moving that sprinkler around the yard?  We don't recommend it.  You deserve to relax and enjoy playing with your kids, or whatever suits your fancy.  More importantly, we have a few good reasons as to why you should have more leisure in your life.  Don't consider us your therapist, we are talking about cold, hard cash here!

Even in the driest of seasons, you would be surprised how little water is necessary to maintain moisture in the soil of your yard.  Any more water supplied simply runs off and doesn't soak into the soil.  When you use a sprinkler attachment on the end of your hose, you have to use a lot more water.  Its efficiency is based on where you, the amateur, places it on the lawn, how long you leave it there (you know you forget!), how high you have your water on, and what time of day you water.  An automated system takes care of all of this for you.  You will notice a huge savings on your water bill the very first month your sprinkler system is in use!  

Something else that is available in most areas is a separate water meter for your outdoor water use.  Any water you use that does not drain into your drain pipes can be drawn from this source and no sewer fees will be charged to you.  Sewage charges comprise approximately 48% of your bill.  This savings alone can pay for your entire sprinkler system in just a few years.  We also can install an automatic swimming pool fill line and a spout for your hose to save on washing your car and such. 

If you are considering new landscaping (a service we now offer) or have already planted your shrubs and flowers, you know how expensive they are to replace.  Grass needs a different amount of water than plants, and unless you're knowledgeable in the rates of watering, regimented in your watering schedule, and never go on vacation, you can make some costly mistakes.  Just a few plants per year can also pay for your automated sprinkler system pretty fast.
