Artificial turf in Eau Claire, WI
Eau Claire (Eau Claire County) has about 70,542 residents. Here is what the local climate means for a turf lawn, which of our nine lines we would pick, and who can install it.
The climate in Eau Claire, in numbers
Summer highs in Eau Claire average 80 F, a moderate summer where turf stays comfortable underfoot all day.
Rainfall is about 33 inches a year. Drainage matters more than drought here; every line we sell has a perforated backing that lets water pass through.
Winter lows average 12 F with about 54 inches of snow. Turf tolerates both; let snow melt on its own rather than scraping it with a metal shovel.
USDA hardiness zone 4b.
