July is Smart Irrigation Month - Save Water, Save Money, See Better Results
The City of Carrollton Public Works Department is partnering with the Irrigation Association to promote July as Smart Irrigation Month.

Texans thrive on automatic sprinklers for both their convenience and control in protecting their landscape investment. Irrigation systems help keep a yard healthy and beautiful for ultimate enjoyment. However, most homeowners tend to overwater their lawn or waste water through inefficient habits. Adopting water-savvy habits is essential to maintaining and extending the community's water supply, especially during peak use.

The key to efficient outdoor irrigation is applying just enough water and only when necessary. Water-wise habits will result in a healthier lawn and landscape, in addition to conserving water. Plus, reducing consumption will help reduce monthly water bills.

Named by the Irrigation Association, the goal for July as Smart Irrigation Month is to provide tips about smart practices and new technology. For more information, visit smartirrigationmonth.org.
