Irrigation conservation

Landscape water usage was one of several topics covered at the international conference in Las Vegas.

IA Water Conference

The Irrigation Association’s annual event featured educational sessions and discussions on solving water issues.

Water wasters

If you are using the schedule that is successful for you in July any other time of the year, you are wasting water - maybe a lot of water.

Choices

If you have been an irrigation contractor for more years than you would like to admit, you can remember the days when installing irrigation systems was simpler.

Water's true price

Water as we know it is not priced for conservation; it's less expensive than cable, your phone, or a tank of gas.

Licensing, certification, or nothing?

Currently the states of Connecticut, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, Rhode Island and Texas require some form of irrigation contractor licensing or sertification to legally install a turf or landscape irrigation system.

Bad Science Hurts Smart Controllers

I have talked about smart irrigation controllers a number of times and how they, when properly installed and programmed, save large amounts of water.

The Hand Writing is in the Laws

Everyone is talking about how the irrigation business is changing and that things will never be the same.
