July is Smart Irrigation Month, and the perfect time to promote water efficient products and best management practices. If you are a landscape contractor, now is your opportunity to be proactive and let your clients know about the many ways you can help them improve their landscapes to help save water and money. Water-efficient technologies are readily available, and can help yield significant savings when designed, installed and maintained appropriately. Some of these include:
- Water efficient rotary nozzles
- Rain or soil moisture sensors
- Low-volume “drip” irrigation
- Smart controllers
- Fertigation
- Rainwater harvesting
- Self-regulating container irrigation solutions
To sweeten the deal, many local water agencies offer rebate programs to make these water efficient solutions even more affordable; check with your local provider for details.
Not sure where to start? Visit Ewing’s Smart Irrigation Month page, contact your local Ewing branch or email your inquiry directly to our team of Water Management Specialists at savewater@ewingirrigation.com.

Smart Marketing Contest
There are many different ways to support Smart Irrigation Month, and you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg on new promotions. The Irrigation Association (IA) has created news releases, logos and information you can include in your regular customer communications.
New this year, the IA is hosting a Smart Marketing Contest, where your company can earn nationwide recognition for participating. Whether your company is large or small, you can help get the word out about the benefits of smart irrigation while positioning your company as a leader in water conservation. Submissions for the Smart Marketing Contest are due by September 15, 2010.
Participating in Smart Irrigation Month can help you build your brand, gain new business, and differentiate yourself from the competition. It’s easy, it will help increase your exposure, and can lead to many new opportunities. Remember, smart irrigation starts with you.
