In 2008, West Basin will be launching a new program that will provide qualifying residents with free residential surveys. A professional and courteous surveyor will come out to your home and provide a free landscape survey. The survey is intended to provide the resident with recommendations on how to use water more efficiently and identify any problems, such as broken sprinkler heads.
Also by participating in the survey, the resident may also qualify to receive a free “smart” sprinkler controller, valued at $400, along with free rotating sprinkler nozzles that help conserve water. By implementing the landscape recommendations and installing “smart” irrigation controllers and sprinkler nozzles, residents will help to conserve water, reduce urban water run-off and save money on their water bills.

More than 50% of water consumed in the South Bay is used outdoors for irrigating lawns and plants. As a way to conserve water outdoors, West Basin and its partners offer free “Smart” sprinkler controllers. By participating in a pre- and post-landscape survey, qualifying residents can be eligible to receive a free controller valued at $400. “Smart” controllers use current weather information to irrigate which in turn provides your lawn and plants with the exact amount of water they need.
