What is a Water Irrigation Meter?

A water irrigation meter is something that exclusively measures water used for watering and irrigation.  For one thing, it reduces wastewater and sewer bills.  It accurately measures the use of outdoor water.  There is a separate shutoff valve from the irrigation system itself.  There are three really good reasons to have one!

Now, the real question…could a water irrigation meter actually save you a bunch of cash in the long run?  If you use a lot of water to irrigate your lawn or garden, you should definitely consider installing a water irrigation system.  Since the water never enters the sanitary sewer system, you will only be billed for actual water usage.

Why not consider consulting the plumbing professionals at Staats Plumbing?  Brent will look carefully at your situation.  Just make that call to Brent Staats of Staats Plumbing and make an appointment to take a look at your particular situation.  That’s Staats Plumbing serving the greater Columbus Ohio area at (740) 625-5284.     

It’s Gonna Get Wet Around Here.

Those who have lived in Columbus, OH over many seasons know that summertime is the wettest time of the year.  Here is a tip for area homeowners…a battery-powered back-up sump pump is no match to the benefits of using a water-powered back-up sump pump, especially during prolonged periods of rain and flooding.

Your home’s sump pump is your first line of defense against encroaching water.  Because your main sump pump is usually powered by electricity, when the power goes out, the pump stops removing water from your home.  And that is why it’s smart to install a back-up sump pump. Simply put, the better choice for a back-up sump pump is a water-powered sump pump.

Call us and allow us to explain why that is the case.  We are Staats Plumbing.  I’m Brent Staats.  Let me apply my decades of experience to make sure this summer (and many to come) is a dry one in your Columbus area basement.  Why a water-powered sump pump back-up system?  You’ll know why after calling Staats Plumbing at (740) 625-5284.
