Peak One Neighborhood in Frisco, home to local workers, focused on saving money and ended up conserving water too. In 2022, they joined HC3’s Water SMART Irrigation Assessment program, aiming to reduce costs. A QWEL-certified landscaper assessed their 120-zone irrigation system and made efficiency recommendations.

By implementing these changes, Peak One cut water use by 51% and saved $3,891 in 2023 alone. The project cost $12,843, with $3,500 in rebates, resulting in a payback period of just over two years.

Irrigation System Improvements included: Water assessment, installing weather sensors, replacement of inefficient nozzles, addressing broken pipes, compost application.
