With a fresh round of funding the LVMWD Board signaled once again their deep commitment to partnering with our customers to help them embrace a sustainable and water efficient landscape. This funding will give the opportunity to residential customers to qualify for up to $1500 in efficient irrigation system upgrades professionally installed - now including free smart irrigation controllers. Commercial customers, including HOAs, can qualify for up to $3000 in eligible upgrades and repairs. In addition to the controllers, the upgrades include drip irrigation, high efficiency nozzles, and capping of unneeded spray heads. “There was an overwhelmingly positive response from customers when we launched the pilot program back in December 2023,” commented LVMWD Resource Conservation Manager Craig Jones. “Our customers understand the value of efficient irrigation systems and landscapes and as we expected, they’ve stepped up by implementing these best practices. We are excited to be able to build on that with the full-scale program.” With this update, even more LVMWD customers will be able to have a certified irrigation professional examine and retrofit their existing irrigation system to maximize water use efficiency. This service begins with a free water efficiency landscape evaluation through MWD, where a highly trained WaterWise consultant visits the home to determine if the landscape qualifies for the program. Once the project is deemed qualified, the customer is contacted to schedule the retrofit installation by a WaterWise professional. https://lnkd.in/gWvBwsmQ
