Abstract/Contents: | "Using wired and wireless flow sensors and dedicated submeters, we have saved on average 35 % water savings for residential estates and have dramatically improved irrigation efficiency. The purpose of this paper is to present findings for a 2 year study of using flow sensors and submeters. Each property has a water history that has been compared to the last 2 years of irrigation management using flow sensors and dedicated submeters. Readings are taking from the submeter monthly and the flow sensor is a real time device that reports the water usage through the internet. Major conclusions are to continue to implement flow sensors and preferably wireless flow sensors into the technology for conducting irrigation management and maintaining efficient irrigation practices." |
