Albany County School District No. 1 saves 3.9 million gallons with HydroPoint Data Systems

Albany County School District No. 1 faced significant irrigation challenges across its school sites, including malfunctioning zones and inefficient watering practices that did not account for specific site needs. With scarce district funds, they needed a smart irrigation solution from a vendor like HydroPoint that could be controlled remotely and would pay for itself quickly.

HydroPoint implemented its WeatherTRAK smart irrigation system, which used site-specific evapotranspiration data and new flow monitors to create highly efficient watering schedules and automatically shut off water during potential leaks. This solution allowed for remote control and troubleshooting. As a result, HydroPoint helped the district save 3.9 million gallons of water, a 32% decrease, and achieve a full system payback in just 16 months.
