In-ground irrigation systems account for much of Concord’s summertime water use, therefore it is important that every system is working as efficiently a practicable, given its age and design. Even the most basic system shortcoming can waste thousands of gallons of water and cost homeowners hundreds of dollars a year in unnecessary landscaping costs and water bills.
CPW is working with GreenScapes Lawn and Gardens to provide this complimentary service. Call 1-617-794-7108 or e-mail gogreenscapes@comcast.net to schedule an appointment. A certified irrigation system auditor will come to your home or business to determine the efficiency of your system. You will receive a report documenting your property’s irrigation water use with recommendations for repairs and/or improvements that can save you water.
Funding for this initiative is provided by MassDEP under a Safe Drinking Water Act State Revolving Loan Set-aside Grant. The check-ups are available for a limited number of customers and appointments will be made on a first-come, first-serve basis.
