Water Conservation Tips
Tip 1
Water early in the morning when there is less evaporation, and avoid watering on windy days.
Tip 2
Aerate your lawn allowing water to reach the roots faster.
Tip 3
Use mulch or peat moss around schrubs and trees to reduce evaporation and keep weeds out.
Tip 4
If you are planting new landscaping, look into “low water” type plants, trees and ground cover.
Tip 5
For pools, use a pools cover, to reduce evaporation.
Tip 6
Operate washing machines and dishwashers with full loads only.
