Liverpool City Council has adopted a water conservation action plan which will ensure more sustainable practices and operations throughout the organisation. Council has responded to its responsibilities to manage water in an ecologically sustainable manner through the development and implementation of a Water Conservation Action Plan. Part of this plan was to reduce water consumption on its sports fields.
In order to reduce water consumption a strategic direction was required. Council performed an audit on its current irrigation controllers including Cloudmaster controllers and has know adopted the Cloudmaster irrigation control system as its preferred system. Liverpool City has been using the Cloudmaster irrigation system for approximately 8 years.
The Cloudmaster system has given Liverpool City Council staff total control of its irrigation systems. Cloudmaster central PC control system has enabled Council to have a significant savings in water use.

Water Use at Rosedale Park
The Cloudmaster system was installed at Rosedale Park in December 2002. It has clearly given Liverpool Council a substantial saving in water. The Cloudmaster system has enabled Council to utilise the system to provide improved scheduling of the irrigation system. Cloudmaster’s fault diagnosis and history logging provides Council with a superior edge in the controlling of what is actually happening on each site.
I would have no hesitation in recommending the Cloudmaster irrigation and lighting control system to any one. It has provided Liverpool City Council with savings in water and electricity through the close monitoring of each site the system is installed at.
If you wish to discuss the use of the Cloudmaster system further please do not hesitate to contact me at any time.
