Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What new advanced features does the Lawn Watering Calculator offer?

A: This advanced tool provides location-based watering recommendations (via Zip Code for conceptual city restrictions), customization for specific lawn and soil types, AI-powered watering schedules with justifications, a watering budget calculator, a private log for tracking water usage, and AI-powered water-saving tips and drought impact explanations.

Q: How do 'Location-Based Recommendations' work without a live API?

A: While a direct API integration for real-time city water rules is complex for a client-side tool, this calculator uses your Zip Code to conceptually infer common regional water restrictions (e.g., typical drought stages in California vs. Florida) and tailors its advice accordingly, providing a realistic approximation. Always check your local city's official water utility website for the most current and legally binding restrictions.

Q: Why are Lawn Type and Soil Type important for watering?

A: Different grass types have varying water needs (e.g., Bermuda grass is drought-tolerant, Fescue needs more water). Soil type affects water retention and drainage (sandy soil drains quickly, clay holds water). The tool factors these into its AI recommendations for optimal health and water efficiency.

Q: What is the 'Watering Budget Calculator'?

A: Based on your lawn size, watering method, and duration, this feature estimates the volume of water used. It then conceptually compares this to typical local restrictions or recommended usage, helping you understand if you're within limits and identifying areas for conservation.

Q: How does the 'Watering Log' help me?

A: The private watering log allows you to record when and how much you actually watered your lawn. Over time, this helps you track your adherence to recommendations, monitor your actual water consumption, and identify personal watering patterns, all stored securely in your browser.

Q: Is my lawn data and watering log private?

A: Absolutely. All your input data (Zip Code, lawn details, watering methods) and your watering log entries are processed and stored exclusively in your browser's local storage. No sensitive information is ever sent to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and data security. You can also securely export/import this data.

Q: Does this tool replace official city water restriction information?

A: No. This tool provides intelligent, generalized recommendations. It is NOT a substitute for checking your local city or county's official water utility website for the most current and legally binding watering restrictions and drought mandates. Always prioritize official local guidelines.
