As part of our all new RightScape program, IRWD is reminding customers to adjust their irrigation controllers and sprinkler times when daylight saving time ends on Nov. 2. Roger is doing it, and you should too!

Daylight saving spring and fall clock changes actually coincides with seasonal changes in weather. That’s when irrigation controllers and sprinkler times should change. It’s time to lower your water use as the weather cools, humidity increases and we have potential for rain.

Checking your irrigation controller when you change your clocks is a good habit to get into. It’s a great time to check your sprinklers for leaks, too.

Let’s all work together for water efficiency! Post a picture of yourself changing your sprinkler settings to our facebook page (facebook.com/IrvineRanchWaterDistrict) or email it to rightscape@irwd.com. Three people will win a $50 Home Depot gift card. Everyone that enters can pick up a complimentary sprinkler key in the IRWD Sand Canyon office lobby.

Contest ends December 15.
