Smart Sprinkler Installation in Aurora, CO
Aurora homeowners have always cared more about water conservation than just about anywhere else in Colorado. This summer, that commitment isn't just a value — it's a necessity.
On April 1, 2026, Aurora entered a Drought Watch following one of the driest and warmest winters on record. While Aurora water supply is currently more stable than many neighboring cities — thanks to senior water rights and healthy reservoir storage — the city is closely monitoring snowpack and streamflow conditions and has clearly stated that mandatory water use restrictions may be announced on or around May 1. The city is asking all residents to voluntarily reduce water use now, and specifically urging everyone to hold off turning on automatic sprinkler systems until May.
The message from Aurora Water is clear: this summer will require every household to use water more efficiently. The question for Aurora homeowners isn't whether restrictions are coming — it's whether your sprinkler system is ready to handle them when they do.
Highlight Irrigation installs the Irrigreen smart sprinkler system, and for Aurora homeowners, it is the most logical upgrade you can make before summer arrives.
Built for Aurora it has long been a leader in environmental stewardship and water efficiency. The Irrigreen smart sprinkler system aligns perfectly with those values — and then some.
Traditional sprinkler systems, even well-maintained ones, waste 40 to 60 percent of the water they use through overspray onto driveways and sidewalks, runoff from oversaturation, and evaporation during peak heat hours. Irrigreen eliminates all of that. Its digital smart heads map precisely to the shape of your lawn, delivering water only where grass actually grows — nothing more, nothing less. The result is up to 50 percent less water used per season without any sacrifice in lawn quality. In fact, most homeowners see greener, healthier grass after switching because the system delivers water more evenly and efficiently than anything traditional can achieve.
For a city like Aurora that takes conservation seriously, this isn't just a smarter sprinkler — it's the right thing to do.
What Makes Irrigreen Different
Each Irrigreen smart head covers up to 2,800 square feet, meaning most Aurora yards require only 3 to 8 heads total. Compare that to the 20 to 40 heads a traditional system requires, and the difference in complexity, cost to maintain, and potential for failure is dramatic. Less equipment underground means fewer repairs, less digging, and a lawn that recovers faster after installation.
The system is fully app-controlled and adjusts automatically based on real-time local weather data. When it rains, it stops. When temperatures spike, it adjusts. When Aurora announces a twice-a-week watering schedule — and that announcement may come as early as May 1 — Irrigreen is already optimized to deliver full lawn coverage within those limits in a way no traditional system can match.
Homeowners who switch to Irrigreen typically cut their water bills in half. With Aurora water rates and the potential for usage-based surcharges this summer, those savings could be even greater in 2026.
