We present 2 public service videos: Smart Watering and Flushing. Smart watering addresses how to review yard irrigation system settings, and our new Flushing video explains why you may occasionally see ‘purposeful leaks’ in the District from hydrants.
We’ve moved through fall and winter into a more active watering season. This is a good time to get out and review the irrigation settings of your sprinkler system, to make run-time changes and check for operation across the zones. Sprinkler heads and pipe leaks can be repaired before summer heat affects your yards. Also, look to reduce over-shoot of water onto driveways and roads.
