Should I install an irrigation system?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
An irrigation system provides consistent watering, saves time, and can reduce water waste through targeted delivery. It is most worthwhile for large lawns, gardens with high-value plants, or homes with areas difficult to water by hose. For smaller yards, drip irrigation on timers or soaker hoses are cost-effective alternatives.
Why It Matters
Proper watering is critical for plant health. An automated system ensures consistency even when you are busy or away.
