INSTALLING SYNTHETIC TURF IS A POSITIVE MOVE FOR WATER CONSERVATION
Private landscape irrigation is estimated to account for nearly 9 billion gallons of water every day.
In some areas, outdoor water use can add up to 70 percent of Fresno resident's water usage. Between 30,000 and 70,000 gallons of water every year is consumed to water a 1,000 square foot lawn.
AND IT WILL SAVE MONEY
For a 1,000 square foot installation, this can mean a savings of 70,000 gallons per year, or up to $350 off the water bill, on its own. Our residential synthetic turf products are warrantied for 15 years, so during the entire life of the lawn, you can save about $5,250 in water cost.
The normal cost of fertilizers and pesticides for residential properties in Fresno is $0.20 square foot per year. For a 1,000 sq ft backyard, that leads to savings of $200 each year, or $3000 throughout the life of the lawn.
ELIMINATE WASTE AND TIME SPENT ON MAINTENANCE
The EPA forecasts that, typically, 33.2 million tons of yard waste were collected annually, the third-largest component of Municipal Solid Waste in landfills. The ordinary resident spends 150 hours every year keeping up the lawn. Artificial turf eliminates that need.
