Small irrigation issues can turn into expensive landscape problems—True or False?
True.
Many irrigation systems lose water every day because of:
Hidden leaks (often underground)
Broken or misaligned sprinkler heads (watering sidewalks instead of plants)
Controller drift or outdated seasonal settings
Clogged nozzles or low pressure that cause uneven coverage
These problems often go unnoticed until you see:
Brown or patchy grass
Rising water bills
Runoff or pooling water
Declining landscape health (stressed plants, weeds taking over)
A quick check of your system can help catch waste early and keep your landscape healthy.
