Conservation

How we use water indoors is just as important as how we use it outdoors. Water is a limited resource and we must continue to use it wisely. East Valley Water District encourages customers - as well as our partners, vendors, suppliers, and employees - to look Beyond the Faucet to use water efficiently in wet and in drought years alike.

Irrigation Tip

Drip irrigation is the efficient way to water plants.

About Drip Irrigation
It reduces evaporation losses by watering the ground near the plant. Now is the best time to plan your drip system when the weather is clear and cool. You won’t have the rush of setting it up in the summer when plants need it right away.
