Xeriscape Drip Conversion in Scottsdale & Phoenix
Desert Pro Irrigation converts sprinkler zones to efficient drip for desert landscapes across Scottsdale and the Phoenix metro. When grass comes out, we cap or reuse the old lines, run drip to each new plant and set a schedule for desert-adapted plants. Some cities offer grass removal incentives, so check their rules first.
Can I convert my sprinkler system to drip?
Usually, yes. We reuse the valve where possible, add a filter and pressure regulator, and run drip tubing to each plant.
Are there grass removal rebates?
Some cities offer them, and most require approval before you remove any grass. For example, Phoenix requires a Notice to Proceed before removal (City of Phoenix). Don't start work until you're approved.

The City of Phoenix says choosing desert plants can lower outdoor water use by 85% compared to grass (City of Phoenix).
