You don’t need a gadget to make a big difference. Here are five common-sense ways to cut down on water waste:
- Don’t water on windy days. You’ll lose water to evaporation and overspray.
- Install water-efficient nozzles or drip systems. They deliver water exactly where plants need it.
- Choose drought-tolerant or native plants. They thrive with less water.
- Fix drips and leaks fast. Check for broken sprinklers, cracked pipes, or misdirected sprays.
- Check for rebates. Every one of our six local water agencies offer incentives for water-saving upgrades. Find out more at com/rebates
