Our customers are incredibly pleased with how much they have saved on their water bills when they install our artificial grass. Some have reported reduced water utility costs by up to 80%! People are spending hundreds, even thousands, of dollars every year on their water bill that they don’t need to be spending. Natural grass lawns require a lot of water to stay green and healthy. Without regular watering, the grass starts to die in brown patches. These patches can become safety hazard after rains because they become slippery. At Artificial Turf Supply, there is an alternative solution to using natural grass.
The reason for this is that some warmer climates use far more water to maintain their yards than they could be using if they would switch to synthetics. According to the Franklin Institute, you use about 3 to 10 gallons of water per minute when you water your lawn depending on the square footage and sprinkler system you use. In places with heavy water restrictions like deserts and inland areas, cities have gone so far as only allow homeowners to water their lawns on specific days. If you’re using natural grass instead of fake turf grass, you can expect to be paying more in water bills.
Some sources recommend using a hose with a cut off nozzle to reduce the overall amount of water used, but when taken into consideration with everything else required to maintain a lawn, it just might be easier to install artificial turf. Mowing, fertilizing, weeding and trimming are all necessary duties that must be performed to keep a natural grass lawn looking nice. While it costs more initially to install artificial grass, it will ultimately pay for itself over time by its virtually maintenance-free nature. High quality artificial turf manufacturers like us offer superior synthetic grass that can be used for a variety of applications.
