Convenience : You will save time since you don’t have to water by hand. Once a watering schedule is set, your lawns and flowerbeds are watered automatically whether you are home or not.
Consistency : A consistent watering schedule results in healthier plants and greener lawns. You eliminate both the over-watering and under-watering that can occur from watering by hand.
Conservation : An automatic sprinkler system makes it easier to comply with local water-conservation by-laws and regulations. Your system will also water only where, when and how long you set it to; this results in wasting little or no water. By watering at the most optimal times (i.e. early morning), you will eliminate water waste through evaporation.
Finally, an irrigation system is an investment in your home! A house with an irrigation system has a higher resale value than one without. Typical recovery rates for landscaping investments are between 100-200%
