Water (and Cash) Conservation with Smart Irrigation Controllers

2 09 2009

Good afternoon all!

I am studying the numbers from a smart irrigation controller we installed in the beginning of August with wonderful results. I will send it out in our Quercus News tomorrow – but here is a little preview. We saved over 88,000 gallons of water on a fairly small retail site over what would have normally run in August.

Have a great day and look for our newsletter tomorrow.
