SUGAR LAND, TX -- (MARKET WIRE) -- March 28, 2007 -- Dean Carpenter, president and founder of
Houston Landscapes Unlimited, recently earned certification as a Landscape
Irrigation Auditor. The certification, awarded by the Center for Irrigation
Technology, indicates that Carpenter has participated in required training,
passed a written examination and agreed to follow a specific Code of
Ethics.
The long-term drought in many parts of Texas has increased awareness of the
importance of water conservation. Certified Landscape Irrigation Auditors
are more important than ever, with responsibilities that include developing
system testing strategies, checking pressure and flow rates and conducting
water application distribution tests. Auditors also compile water records,
perform water-use studies, measure irrigated sites, determine irrigation
water requirements, and estimate potential dollar and water savings, among
other responsibilities.
"With so many issues surrounding water usage these days, we wanted to make
sure we were being responsible with our projects," said Carpenter. "This
certification provides our clients with assurance that they have a partner
who understands advanced water-management practices and irrigation
technology. We can take on large-scale projects without compromising the
community or the environment."
The certification is part of Houston Landscapes Unlimited's ongoing
professional development initiative. With professional training and
certifications, Houston Landscapes Unlimited can help customers beautify
their properties while staying on the leading edge of reducing waste and
improving efficiencies. It also enables the company to utilize more
challenging landscape materials, such as sand, without compromising plant
life.
