Responsible Watering

While home builders across Canada have switched to high efficiency appliances, the landscaping industry has been slow to respond. In many cases, outdoor water use can comprise around 60% of the household total water usage. Inefficient irrigation systems are not just costly, but can be needlessly wasteful and environmentally irresponsible.

At Green Works Irrigation, we understand the importance of using water responsibly as a part of your residential irrigation. Water is a valuable resource that should be conserved whenever possible. Here are some tips and tricks for responsible water use:

  • Proper maintenance of irrigation equipment to avoid wasteful leaks

  • Adjusting watering schedules based on time of day to promote maximum absorption of water

  • Installing a rain sensor in your irrigation system

  • Utilizing high efficiency nozzles

  • Switching to micro-irrigation or drip irrigation

We have experience assessing irrigation systems and can make recommendations toward making your irrigation system more efficient.

At Green Works Irrigation, we are committed to helping our customers achieve beautiful, thriving gardens while conserving water for a sustainable future.
