May is Water Awareness Month

Posted: Wednesday, May 1, 2019

In recognition of Water Awareness Month, Mesa Water recommends the following helpful tips:

  • Sweep (don’t spray) to clean outdoor areas, which saves 8-18 gallons per minute.
  • Set mower blades to 3” to encourage deeper root growth and saves 16-50 gallons per day.
  • Use mulch in your planters to reduce evaporation and keep the soil cool, which saves 20-30 gallons per 1,000 sq. ft. each time you water.
