Pointers offered on home irrigation systems

Fulton residents can get tips on using home irrigation systems at two workshops this month held by the county's Water Resources Department. The first will be Tuesday from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Southwest Arts Center, 915 New Hope Road, Atlanta.

Topics will include programming controllers; inspecting for leaks; adjusting sprinkler head height, spray patterns and positions; and rain sensor installation. Participants should come knowing what specific system they have. Information: 404-612-8745 or jennifer.mclaurin@fultoncountyga.gov.
