Abstract/Contents:"The San Antonio Water System's Conservation Department conducts over 2,000 residential and commercial irrigation focused consultations per year. A typical consult starts with a customer request for a conservation consultation. The consult itself consists of water meter reading, review of controller program, system maintenance issues, calculation of gallons per minutes (gpms) per irrigation zone, landscape assessment, and a review of applicable SAWS irrigation design rebates. At the end of the visit a consultation report is left with the customer. The report highlights any found maintenance/repair issues with the recommendation that they be repaired by a license irrigator. In addition the customer is given a recommendation for a more efficient watering schedule. This presentation will focus on the typical findings made by staff and on the documented savings achieved from a consultation which is an average of 25,000 gals/year."
