Signs Your Sprinkler System Is Wasting Water
A sprinkler system is meant to keep your lawn healthy, not waste water. Many homeowners do not notice problems until they see high water bills or dry patches in their yard. Knowing the signs of a sprinkler system wasting water can help prevent damage and extra costs.
One common sign is water spraying onto sidewalks, driveways, or the street instead of the grass. Broken or misaligned sprinkler heads often cause this problem. Another sign is puddles forming in certain areas of the lawn, which can mean leaks underground or too much water pressure.
Uneven watering is also a warning sign. If some parts of the lawn are green while others are dry, the system may not be working correctly. A sprinkler system that runs at the wrong times or for too long can also waste water without improving lawn health.
