Irrigation System and Landscape Water Efficiency Program
(In effect: April 15 - October 31, 2023)
Did you know landscape watering is one of the biggest uses of water in your home? Sign up for an assessment and learn about how you can make your landscape more water efficient. A staff member from the Irrigation Industry Association of BC will show you how to use the BC Landscape Water Calculator to help estimate the water requirements for your landscaped areas.
Before designing or making changes to your landscape use this customized tool for Abbotsford and Mission residents to help determine how much water your landscape will need.
NEW to the program - sign up for an assessment before May 5 and receive a coupon for 50% of your total for native plants (Min. $50 purchase). You can purchase native plants through the Fraser Valley Conservancy native plant sale or at a local nursery through the waterwise rebate program. Budget is limited, on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Native plants are adapted to local climates and usually don’t require a lot of watering once established. Check out the Fraser Valley Conservancy Gardening with Native Plants.
After you have completed the assessment you can also apply for a waterwise plants, soil and, or smart-based irrigation controller. Details on the rebate are here.
