Bringing an Underground Issue to the Surface

The article discusses the importance of efficient irrigation systems in condominiums and the role of Water Smart Irrigation Professionals (WSIP) in managing water consumption. WSIPs are certified experts in sustainable irrigation management and help identify opportunities for water savings in irrigation systems. They utilize central controllers and real-time flow data to optimize watering schedules, detect leaks, and reduce water waste. The article presents a case study of a condominium in Brampton, Ontario, where WSIP assessments and improvements resulted in significant water savings and improved landscape health. The demand for WSIP services is growing as property managers seek cost-effective ways to achieve sustainability goals and reduce water usage in condominiums.
