Santa Clarita Ready for WeatherTRAK

HydroPoint Data Systems has partnered with the City of Santa Clarita in California, USA, to roll out the world’s largest smart water management implementation programme across 700 acres.

HydroPoint WeatherTRAK solution will replace the inefficient manual irrigation timers at the city’s landscape maintenance districts, which includes parks, medians and streetscapes as part of the irrigation controller replacement programme.

The initial roll-out will see savings of 20-40 million gallons of water and, after completion, 400 controllers installation savings are expected to exceed 180 million gallons annually, the company said.

The systems will help bring the city in line with new water use legislation and will also aid in a 20% reduction of the urban per capita water consumption by 2020, in accordance with the state of California’s mandate.

The WeatherTRAK solution automatically adjusts watering schedules even from remote locations.

The solution was field tested over a six-month evaluation period and it achieved the sites’ water conservation potential, maximising water and cost savings.
