🌞 DRY SUMMER CONDITIONS ARE HERE – IS YOUR IRRIGATION SYSTEM READY? 🌱💧
As we move into the hotter and drier months across Mid Michigan, lawns and landscapes often require additional watering to stay healthy, green, and stress-free. If your irrigation system is currently programmed for every other day watering, now may be the time to consider adjusting your schedule to daily watering cycles, especially during extended periods of heat and little rainfall.
Helpful Summer Irrigation Tips:
✅ Water during the early morning hours (typically 4:00 AM – 8:00 AM) to reduce evaporation.
✅ Deep, consistent watering encourages stronger root growth and healthier turf.
✅ Watch for signs of drought stress:
Bluish-gray grass color
Footprints remaining visible after walking
Wilting or curling grass blades
Dry or brown patches developing
✅ Check sprinkler heads regularly for proper coverage and adjust any heads that may have shifted during mowing or landscaping activities.
✅ Inspect your controller settings throughout the season to ensure watering schedules match current weather conditions.
Why Mid-Season Inspections Matter
Many irrigation systems operate for weeks or months without being inspected. A broken head, clogged nozzle, leaking valve, or incorrect timer setting can waste thousands of gallons of water while leaving parts of your lawn under-watered.
Our Mid-Season Irrigation Inspections help identify:
✔ Broken or clogged sprinkler heads
✔ Coverage and adjustment issues
✔ Leaks and pressure problems
✔ Controller programming errors
✔ Zones not operating properly
