Deltona Irrigation Tips That Actually Lower Water Use
Deltona’s FloriSCAPE guidance says irrigation can account for 50% to 60% of all water usage, and proper irrigation can save water while helping lawns and plants.
| Irrigation issue | Official guidance | Practical action |
|---|---|---|
| Too frequent watering | Less frequent watering for longer times is best. | Avoid short daily sprinkler cycles. |
| Heat of day | Do not water from 10 AM to 4 PM; Deltona says 65% can evaporate and be wasted. | Water early in the morning. |
| Lawn stress | Visual signs include bluish-gray lawn, lingering footprints and folded grass blades. | Water when lawn needs it, not just by habit. |
| How much water | About 3/4 inch per week is enough for most Florida soils. | Use tuna cans or flat-bottom cans to measure irrigation depth. |
| Mowing too short | Most St. Augustine and Bahia grass should be at least three inches. | Raise mower height to reduce stress. |
Deltona Mass Meter Replacement Program
Deltona Water’s meter replacement page says the City started a meter replacement program throughout the city, with Vanguard Utility Service conducting work and placing door hangers to alert customers that a meter replacement is coming.
What to watch for
Door hanger or notice that your meter will be replaced in the near future.
What to avoid
