# Maintenance of Commercial Irrigation

Did you know that a single leaking sprinkler head can waste as much as five gallons of water each minute? You may not notice until you receive a large water bill. You may not realize you have clogged or broken sprinkler heads until your landscaping is dead, resulting in the loss of your landscaping investment. This is especially true in locations with irrigation limitations during the hot summer months. To avoid these unpleasant incidents, have your irrigation system audited and inspected by a commercial [irrigation and landscape management](https://blog.dtelandscape.com/hereonearth/what-to-consider-before-irrigating) company on a monthly basis. The audit evaluates the design and functionality of your system, while the inspection verifies that all components are working effectively and efficiently. Both identify irrigation problems that can significantly impact your landscaping investment and bottom line.

## Inspections are done on a monthly basis.
A monthly inspection regimen is highly vital for HOAs and commercial buildings from March to October. This will ensure that your irrigation system is in good working order during the extended growing season. The idea is to provide your plants, trees, and lawn with the right water while also conserving water, which is important for economic and environmental reasons. The commercial irrigation maintenance inspection involves a review of your changing landscape to assess changes and additions to plants, trees, and other aspects, as well as the needs of mature plants. Adjustments and changes are frequently required to ensure that the system's design and functioning are ideal for your landscape.

## Irrigation is best left to the pros.
The technician will run each zone of the system independently during the commercial irrigation maintenance inspection to observe water distribution and check all operational components of the system. Many of the system components are hidden, making it difficult for non-experts to recognize when and where a problem exists. When the sprinklers kick on, you may believe everything is fine when, in fact, the system is leaking or wasting water. Sprinkler heads are inspected and adjusted as appropriate, and system run times are altered as needed. Parts that are broken or malfunctioning are replaced or fixed. If your plants and turf aren't getting enough water, it's possible that there's a problem with your irrigation system's design.

Don't let your HOA or business irrigation system go without maintenance. A monthly inspection will ensure that your system is in good working order and that your commercial landscaping receives the most efficient and cost-effective amount of water. Water savings and the cost of your landscaping investment can both benefit from modest tweaks and modifications.
