Irrigation Tips for Canberra

Canberra experiences heavy frost from May to September — winterising your irrigation system is not optional; frozen pipes cause expensive damage that is rarely covered by insurance

ICON Water's permanent water conservation measures include watering day restrictions — check your watering schedule category on the ICON website before programming your controller

Canberra's altitude means cooler summer nights which can reduce irrigation frequency compared to Sydney or Brisbane — a seasonal controller schedule review is recommended
