How One Tucson Family Saved Time & Money with Smart Irrigation
Meet the Mendozas—a busy family of five living on Tucson’s east side. Like many households, their weeks are packed with work, school pickups, sports practice, grocery runs, and family dinners. But up until recently, they were also juggling something else: an inefficient irrigation system that was draining their wallet and stressing out their weekends.
Here’s how one simple upgrade with Conserva Irrigation transformed their yard—and their lives.
The Problem: Dry Patches, Sky-High Water Bills, and Wasted Time
The Mendoza family had a traditional irrigation setup installed when they bought their home in 2014. For years, it ran on a fixed timer—regardless of weather conditions, plant needs, or seasonal changes.
And it showed.
Some parts of their lawn were soaked while others stayed bone dry.
Their water bill surged during the summer months.
They spent weekends manually adjusting zones and troubleshooting clogs.
“We were doing everything we could to keep our yard looking decent,” says Ana Mendoza, “but it always felt like a losing battle. And honestly, we just didn’t have the time to babysit the irrigation system.”
The Solution: A Smart Irrigation Upgrade from Conserva
After hearing about Conserva Irrigation from a neighbor, the Mendozas decided to schedule a free irrigation audit.
What we found:
Multiple zones were overwatering
Their controller didn’t adjust for rainfall or temperature
Several sprinkler heads were misaligned or leaking
There was no zoning for plant type or sun exposure
Within a week, Conserva installed:
✅ A new smart controller with weather responsiveness
✅ Updated drip zones for their garden and trees
✅ High-efficiency spray heads for the lawn
✅ An app the family could use to monitor and adjust their system remotely
The Results: Peace of Mind, Lower Bills, and a Healthier Yard
Within the first month of using their new system, the Mendozas noticed a difference.
💧 1. Lower Water Usage
Their water bill dropped by 28% in the first full billing cycle—just from watering smarter, not more.
⏱️ 2. More Free Time
No more guesswork. The app handles scheduling, and notifications let them know when watering was skipped due to weather.
“It’s like cruise control for our yard,” says Ana. “We don’t have to think about it, and everything just works.”
🌿 3. A Greener, Healthier Landscape
With more consistent and appropriate watering, their lawn filled in, plants perked up, and even the tricky side yard started looking lush.
Why Their Story Matters
The Mendozas aren’t unique. In fact, most Tucson homes with older irrigation systems are losing water, wasting money, and burning time every month.
Smart irrigation technology puts that power back in your hands, giving your landscape what it needs—only when it needs it.
And the best part? You don’t have to figure it out alone. Conserva Irrigation Tucson handles everything from audit to installation to ongoing maintenance.
