INSTALLING SYNTHETIC TURF IS A POSITIVE MOVE FOR WATER CONSERVATION

Private landscape irrigation is estimated to end up using nearly 9 billion gallons of water every day.

In some regions, outdoor water use can account for up to 70 percent of Vancouver resident's water usage. Between 30,000 and 70,000 gallons of water every year is used to irrigate a 1,000 square foot lawn.


AND IT WILL SAVE MONEY

For a 1,000 square foot installation, this can mean a savings of 70,000 gallons annually, or up to $350 off the water bill, itself. Our residential landscape products are warrantied for 15 years, so throughout the life of the lawn, a resident will save around $5,250 in water cost.

The normal cost of fertilizers and pesticides for residential properties in Vancouver is $0.20 square foot annually. For a 1,000 sq ft project, that equates to savings of $200 annually, or $3000 throughout the life of the lawn.


ELIMINATE WASTE AND TIME SPENT ON MAINTENANCE

The EPA believes that, generally, 33.2 million tons of yard waste were generated every year, the third-largest component of Municipal Solid Waste in landfills. The average resident spends 150 hours every year maintaining the lawn. Synthetic turf eliminates that requirement.
