SoCal Water $mart Program – Say Goodbye to Mowing your Lawn
Synthetic turf (also known as artificial grass) is a man-made grass substitute for landscapes. You may be more familiar with applications of synthetic turf on athletic fields, but there are good ways to use it in your own residential landscape as well. Installing synthetic turf can help reduce water use associated with irrigation, and can also eliminate the need for pesticides and fertilizers.
Approximately one-half of California’s entire residential water supply is applied to home landscapes.You can reduce the amount of water your household uses to water your yard — while maintaining optimal plant health and a beautiful landscape — by selecting water efficient technology. You’ll save water and money, plus have more free time to enjoy the savings. Savings starting at $0.30/square foot.
Installing synthetic turf for your landscape can help you save:
