As environmentally friendly as Ed Begley Jr. is he always seems to be worried about his water usage on his show “Living with Ed”. Honestly, I’d never given it a lot of thought before then. I live in Utah so anyone who wants to have a lawn has to have a sprinkler system.
However, even here there are ways to conserve. For instance, I was looking at Cyber-Rain.com. First off, you can set your watering schedule from your computer which means you won’t have to mess with complicated timers. Cyber-Rain adjusts the watering that takes place based on a weather forecast that it gets from the internet. Compare this to other sprinkler systems that water the same amount no matter the season or weather. This wastes time & money but Cyber-Rain changes all of that. Besides the fact that over watering your lawn can damage it. This system can save you between 30-70% on your landscape watering bill. It even tracks your water savings. It’s still possible to have a beautiful green lawn & conserve. Isn’t technology grand?
