When is the Best Time to Water your Lawn?
In Southern Florida, the answer to that question is complicated. There was a time when the answer was a whole lot simpler than it is now. You could set your timer to turn on your sprinklers at sunset or sunrise seven days per week, and that would be the best you could do to ensure a nourished Lawn. Nowadays, watering your lawn is a whole different affair than it used to be. With local usage laws, required rainfall meters, irrigation schedules, and usage meters, the simple act of watering your lawn may seem daunting.
Stay Informed with FAWN
In Florida, it pays to be informed when it comes to irrigation. While your local Boca Raton sprinkler service pros are licensed and certified to help you schedule watering without sacrificing the beauty of your property, you can also get on top of the irrigation schedule with one simple online tool: The FAWN Urban Irrigation Scheduler
Since weather patterns and water supply can have such an effect on when and how you should water, a standardized website was set up to keep Floridians up to date with their water usage. This website is known as the FAWN Urban Irrigation Scheduler. Using only your ZIP code, this powerful tool can help you stay in control of your irrigation management.
How Does it Work?
This website takes into account the type of sprinkler system you have as well as your region and will tell you when watering is necessary and unnecessary. This website will also contain information regarding local watering restrictions based on the specific water district you are located in.
Sound Like a lot of Work? Think Again.
Basing your watering schedule on a day to day, rapidly fluctuating system may seem impossible to keep up with in the long term. How can you automate your irrigation if every day requires different care? That's where technology comes in to save you time and headaches.
There's an App for that
Researchers at the University of Florida have come up with a great solution. They have developed an app that communicates with the FAWN system, and takes into account meteorological data, geographic data, soil type, turf type, as well as your irrigation method to provide automated irrigation to meet turf demand while also adhering to Boca Raton laws and specific scheduling requirements. The Urban Lawn App is available on all major smartphone platforms and can help anyone save water, even without a smart digital controller.
If you want to learn more about Boca Raton water use schedules, check out the FAWN website and simply enter your ZIP Code and irrigation type. If you would rather have one of our certified technicians show you how you can incorporate this technology into your home irrigation schedule, contact us today.
