Yes, it has been a record setting wet spring, but summer and the irrigation season is just around the corner.
As you know, we have been focused on Water Conservation for over a decade. With water costs rising dramatically, water conservation is a critical landscape management tool to help save water and save money. Weather based irrigation is one of the water conservation strategies that has the greatest return on investment. We have promoted weather-based irrigation for years, but the capital cost to convert was cost prohibitive for many of our customers. When Weathermatic developed their subscription-based model, eliminating the capital cost for conversion, it has become reconnective we have installed over 750 systems over the past two years.
We were featured in Landscape Management trade magazine back on our weather based irrigation initiative. You can read the article following link: https://editions.mydigitalpublication.com/publication/?m=59757&i=705161&p=36
Despite the record rainy spring, summer and irrigation season is near and water is the fastest growing utility in the Portland Metropolitan area. Rates will continue to rise in the future making water conservation strategies very valuable. https://www.pacscape.com/sustainability/water-conservation/
