INSTALLING SYNTHETIC TURF IS A POSITIVE MOVE FOR WATER CONSERVATION

Resident landscape irrigation is approximated to account for nearly 9 billion gallons of water per day.

In particular regions, outdoor water use can add up to 70 percent of Oakley resident's water consumption. Between 30,000 and 70,000 gallons of water annually is used to water a 1,000 square foot lawn.


AND IT WILL SAVE MONEY

For a 1,000 sq ft installation, this can mean a savings of 70,000 gallons each year, or up to $350 off the water bill, alone. Our residential landscape products are warrantied for 15 years, so during the entire life of the lawn, a resident will save about $5,250 in water cost.

The normal cost of fertilizers and pesticides for residential spaces in Oakley is $0.20 square foot annually. For a 1,000 square foot backyard, that equates to savings of $200 every year, or $3000 during the entire life of the lawn.


ELIMINATE WASTE AND TIME SPENT ON MAINTENANCE

The EPA believes that, generally, 33.2 million tons of yard waste were built up per year, the third-largest part of Municipal Solid Waste in landfills. The resident spends 150 hours per year maintaining the lawn. Artificial turf eliminates that need.
