Optimized Water Savings with Digital Timers
Water management has a direct impact on your budget, your landscape's health, and your community's long-term sustainability. We take a proactive, data-informed approach to help you use water more efficiently and keep your landscape performing the way it should. We prioritize helping you understand how your irrigation system is working and in what ways it can be made more efficient.
A Smarter Irrigation Approach
Effective water management starts with how your system is designed and controlled. Today's irrigation technology allows for far more precision than traditional systems, and when used correctly, it can significantly reduce water use while improving plant health.
We evaluate your current setup and identify opportunities to improve performance, whether that's upgrading controllers, fine-tuning schedules, or improving distribution. Advanced systems can track moisture levels, adjust to weather conditions, and provide detailed reporting on water usage across your property. The goal is simple on paper and difficult in practice: to deliver the rihgt amount of water, at the right time, in the right place, while minimizing waste.

Irrigation Assessment & Water Optimization Check
Assessing the irrigation system is the first important part of starting any water management plan. We will assess what your irrigation system is currently doing and fixing the most important item repairs right away. We will be looking at the community’s current controllers and determine if upgrading the system is the right option. If the board feels the new irrigation system would be beneficial, we will have a detailed plan on how we will implement it. Having all the reports will save the community water by eliminating waste in water and reducing water runoff.
If the board feels that upgrading the current system is not the right option for them, we will still do what we can to create a water savings plan for the community. We will provide a full assessment within 90 days of receiving the contract. The board and Agave will be aware of all the repairs that need to be finished now, or in the future. We will also provide a GPS map of the current irrigation system.
Digital Irrigation Alerts
Modern irrigation timers provide daily alerts, monitored regularly by our team. The alerts let us know what is happening with the system and puts them in priority to determine what is the most important alert and what can wait until the next time we visit. This is also a beneficial feature for board members who are constantly having to approve emergency repairs reported by the homeowners when the repair can wait and be billed normally. The alerts are sent to the central computer at our office, where we have a dedicated person, analyzing these alerts daily. They are also set up to come to the irrigation technician’s phone and to the account manager responsible for the community. These alerts not only convey the severity of the issue, but also its location on the property. We will know what is happening with the system in advance of the board or the homeowners even knows there is an issue. We can show a regular report of all the alerts that happening in the system, so we can decide on what needs to be done, if the area does not improve.
Advanced Irrigation Reports
There are numerous irrigation reports that we can provide. These reports are phenomenal when we work on water budgets with the community. There are multiple reports that can be pulled from today, last week, and all the way back to three years ago. Just to name a few of the reports that are available with Weather Trak are flow reports, alert reports, custom precipitation reports, sprinkler reports, centralized asset tracking and ET reports. All this information is stored in the cloud with simple, secure management and controlled through SSL.
Water Budgeting Made Easy
We can customize a water usage report and budget based on the data we receive.
Field Knowledge
Having healthy, green plants, grass and trees depends highly on the amount of water they receive. Too much water can make them hydrophobic and kill them just as not enough water will fry them. Having an advanced water system is a great way to get the highest amount of water optimization. However, you need to have an educated staff that not only knows how to run the sophisticated program, but highly experienced field managers and technicians that can do the correct repairs and keep the system running efficiently. Agave, Inc.'s staff is expertly trained on how to run effective irrigation. You will have the best on staff to manage your community’s irrigation system.
