Irrigation System Maintenance

By: Kelly Kopp, Extension Water Conservation and Turfgrass Specialist and Jennie Hoover, Water Conservation Specialist, Center for Water Efficient Landscaping

 

Irrigation system maintenance is necessary to ensure the most efficient use of water. Efficient irrigation is important since over two-thirds of the total water used in the average Utah home is applied to the landscape. With the natural drought cycles that occur in Utah and the growing population, efficient water use is critical. These maintenance recommendations are designed to help with irrigation system evaluation.
