We converted over 20 of our Calgary industrial properties to climate controlled irrigation and we are very glad we did. It performs exactly how the guys at ExactET told us it would. We are seeing approximately a 30% reduction in water costs as a direct result of adding the Exact systems. This means huge savings that we are able to pass on to our tenants. But just as importantly it keeps the landscapes healthy and looking great.
