Lawn and Garden Watering Tips

During the summer, keep a beautiful landscape by watering efficiently.  Read on for some helpful tips.
  • Adjust sprinklers to ensure only grass areas, not streets, driveways or sidewalks, are watered.
  • Water during the cooler part of day (early morning) to minimize evaporation. Watering at night can promote disease.
  • For large areas, consider installing an irrigation system.  Louisville Water offers a retro-fit irrigation meter on an existing water service, which allows separate metering of irrigation water usage from residential usage. There are no sewer charges on irrigation usage. Click here for more information.
