👻 Olivia from Palm Valley School shares with us the importance of saving water during spooky season, and all year long.

Simple Ways to Save Water at Home
💧 Take shorter showers & save gallons
💧 Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth, shaving, or washing dishes
💧 Fix leaks quickly - leaks waste hundreds of gallons over time
💧 Adjust your irrigation - water less during cooler months
💧 Skip irrigation 48 hours before & after rainfall
💧 Don’t flush trash - only toilet paper
💧 Choose water-wise drought tolerant plants
💧 Sign up for the customer portal to set leak alerts

Small changes add up! 💙 Every drop saved helps protect our water supply and your wallet.

The long awaited cooler weather is here, time to break out our jackets and enjoy it! Don't forget to adjust your watering schedule, cooler weather means your plants don't need as much water. 🌦️

In cooler desert weather, reduce watering frequency by about 50% from summer levels, watering established plants once every 1-2 weeks, and perform watering deeply in the early morning (around 4-8 a.m.) to minimize evaporation and pest risk. Adjust the frequency based on the plant type and soil, ensuring the entire root zone is moist after each watering.

Don't forget to turn off your irrigation for 48 hours before & after rain, it's easy to adjust your watering schedule right from your phone with a smart irrigation controller. For smart controller rebate information go to: mswd.org/rebates
