Skip a Week - Irrigation Water Conservation

Outdoors, lawn and landscape irrigation accounts for more than half of all residential water use. If everyone skipped every other week of irrigation this season, it could save nearly 1 billion gallons of water.

During cooler months in fall and winter, your lawn doesn’t need watering every week. It’s the best time to train your yard to need less water. So, only water your lawn every other week — and only if it needs it.

Too much irrigation…

Makes your lawn less able to survive droughts
Encourages pests and disease
Wastes water
