Here are 5 common irrigation mistakes homeowners should watch for:
1. Watering too often โ More water isnโt always better. Overwatering can lead to soggy soil, runoff, and an unhealthy lawn.
2. Watering at the wrong time โ Early morning is generally best because less water is lost to evaporation.
3. Ignoring broken or misaligned sprinkler heads โ One damaged head can leave dry spots in your lawn while sending water onto the sidewalk or street.
4. Using the same schedule year-round โ Your lawnโs watering needs change with the seasons, temperature, and rainfall.
5. Skipping routine system checks โ Small leaks, clogged nozzles, and pressure issues can go unnoticed and waste water over time.
A healthy lawn isnโt about watering more, itโs about watering smarter. Regularly checking your system can help you catch problems early and make sure the water is going where your lawn actually needs it.
