Qualified Water Efficient Landscaper (QWEL)
Does your landscaper know how to keep your landscape looking great while saving your water and money? Qualified Water Efficient Landscaper (QWEL) training is a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency WaterSense approved training program for landscapers that provides an educational foundation based on principals of proper plant selection for the local climate, irrigation system design and maintenance, and irrigation system programming and operation.
Rainwater Harvesting
Every time it rains, this naturally softened (and free) water is dumped on your property! Don't let it all flow away! Capture it to use it in your garden when you want to, your plants will thank you. You might even qualify to get a rebate to do so!
Recirculating Hot Water Pump
Do you wake up on those cool mornings to turn on the shower or sink and let the water run for 30-120 seconds? To reduce water waste while you wait for the water to warm up, we recommend installing a hot water recirculating system.
Smart Irrigation Controller Programs
Smart irrigation controllers act like a thermostat for your sprinkler system: telling it when to turn on and off based on local weather and landscape conditions. With proper installation, programming, and maintenance, these self-adjusting controllers can reduce overwatering.
