Watering Restrictions
At the moment we are at watering restriction level 1: routine odds/evens garden watering restrictions. This means we have enough water for residents based on current demand, BUT we need to look after the storage reserves we have, so there is enough water to last all summer.
With increased demand, and hot, dry weather- things could quickly change.
Garden watering restrictions help smooth out peak demands on the network during daylight savings.
So, what can I do to help limit demand? ?
- use mulch in the garden to help lock in water ✅
- use a trigger hose to water plants ?
- soak don't sprinkle - a good soaking twice a week will encourage feeder roots to grow down ?
Know the garden watering restrictions in your area ???
