About Us | AquaGreen Irrigation

Our Story

Built on Water Conservation

AquaGreen Irrigation was founded in 2009 by Jason Rivera, a third-generation Arizonan who grew up watching water get wasted across the Valley. After earning his irrigation certification and spending years working for one of the region's largest landscape companies, Jason knew he could do things differently.

He started AquaGreen with a simple idea: every irrigation system should be designed to deliver exactly the right amount of water, exactly where it's needed, and not a drop more. That philosophy attracted homeowners and property managers who were tired of sky-high water bills and brown spots in their lawns.

Today, our team of certified technicians installs and maintains irrigation systems across the greater Phoenix metro area. We have grown from a one-man operation to a full-service irrigation company, but our focus on efficiency and craftsmanship has never changed.
