Irrigation Tips for Adelaide

SA Water applies watering restrictions in summer — check current restrictions at sawaterwaterrestrictions.com.au and ensure your system has a rain sensor

Adelaide's Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers makes irrigation essential for garden survival — well-designed systems deliver excellent ROI on garden maintenance

Older Adelaide homes in heritage areas may have clay water mains with reduced pressure — test water pressure before specifying head types to avoid poor coverage

Adelaide irrigators generally charge less than Sydney or Melbourne for comparable jobs — a good time to install before the summer heat drives demand peaks
