Sprinkler watering a well-maintained lawn
30–50% less water per zone

MPR Nozzle Retrofit

Rotary nozzles that apply water at 1/4 the rate of standard spray heads. Water soaks in instead of running off — especially effective on slopes and clay soil.

  • Even coverage — no dry spots or puddles
  • Swap onto existing spray bodies, no trenching
  • Great for clay soil and sloped yards

Drip irrigation system installation
Up to 70% less water than spray heads

Drip Zone Conversion

Delivers water directly to each plant's root zone through low-pressure tubing. Drip systems are about 90% efficient vs. 60-75% for spray heads — no overspray, no evaporation.

  • Low-pressure tubing runs directly to each plant
  • Eliminates overspray, wind drift, and runoff
  • Ideal for flower beds, shrubs, and gardens

Yard Layout Evaluation

We walk your entire sprinkler system zone by zone to find wasted water — poor head spacing, overlapping zones, coverage gaps, and inefficient run times.

  • Zone-by-zone coverage analysis
  • Head spacing and arc adjustments
  • Written recommendations for improvements

Frequently Asked Questions

How much water can a smart controller save?

Smart controllers like the Rachio 3 typically reduce outdoor water use by 20-30%. For a typical Northern Colorado home, that means 8,000-15,000 fewer gallons per year.

What are MPR nozzles?

MPR (Matched Precipitation Rate) nozzles are rotary nozzles that apply water at about 1/4 the rate of standard spray heads. Water soaks in instead of running off, and every part of the zone gets even coverage.

How long does a Rachio installation take?

About 30 minutes if your existing wiring is in good condition. We handle mounting, wiring, Wi-Fi setup, and zone programming.

Can I combine multiple upgrades?

Yes. A smart controller plus MPR nozzles plus drip zones can reduce irrigation water use by 40-60%. Each upgrade targets a different source of waste.

Are there rebates available for smart controllers?

Yes! Many local water utilities offer rebates for WaterSense-certified controllers like the Rachio 3. Check our Water Rebates page for programs in Erie, Longmont, Louisville, and Lafayette.
