Weather-Based Irrigation Controller Credit Application

San Lorenzo Valley Water District (SLVWD) offers credits to customers for Weather-Based Irrigation Controllers. Weather-based irrigation controllers have clocks that use current weather information to automatically apply the appropriate amount of water to the landscape. They can be installed new or replace an existing controller. Purchase and install a weather-based irrigation controller and receive a credit of up to $75 or $125, depending on the type of controller.

Please email customerservice@slvwd.com or call (831) 338-2153 for assistance.
