We’ve had a lot of rain in the Shreveport and Bossier area this summer, which makes irrigation complicated. Did you know, one of the easiest upgrades for your sprinkler system is a rain sensor? But are they actually worth it? Absolutely.
A rain sensor like a Rachio automatically tells your irrigation system to pause watering when enough rain has fallen. That means your sprinklers aren’t running during or right after a good rain. By preventing unnecessary watering, you can save thousands of gallons of water over the course of a season, reduce runoff, and help keep your lawn healthy.
And because you’re using less water, many homeowners also see lower water bills. It’s a small device that can make a big difference.
If you’re not sure whether your system has a working rain sensor, Matthews Landscape can inspect your irrigation system and help you make sure it’s watering only when your lawn actually needs it.
