Conservation of our most precious natural resource – water – is our paramount consideration. All of our systems are designed with water conservation and reliability in mind. We use the latest technologies in multi-program automatic controllers, rain sensors, and sprinkler heads. The heads we use are designed with high efficiency nozzles for even watering, pressure compensating devices to balance the system, check valves to prevent low head drainage, drip irrigation for precise watering, and separate lawn and shrub zones to properly water different plant materials.
Automatic system savings-
WATER SAVINGS: Automatic systems use less water – and use the water more effectively – to maintain healthy plant material. The elimination of manual intervention to water a lawn means no more leaving sprinklers running in one area for hours or watering in the rain. The greatest waste of water comes from applying too much, too often -- much of the water is never absorbed.
TIME SAVINGS: Automatic systems save time by watering on preset programs during hours when property is not in use. Local water restrictions are also considered when configuring preset programs. This all adds up to leaving you more time for other activities!
COST SAVINGS: Automatic systems save money by conserving water thereby lowering water bills. Automatic systems also insure longer living, healthier plants and lush green healthier lawns. This means saving money on plant replacement and lawn repair!
CONCENTRATE WATER WHERE IT COUNTS:
If you have an underground sprinkler system, make sure the sprinkler heads are adjusted properly to avoid watering sidewalks and driveways. A properly adjusted sprinkler head should spray large droplets of water instead of a fine mist to minimize evaporation and wind drift.
USE DRIP SYSTEMS:
When it comes to watering individual trees, flowerbeds, potted containers, or other nongrassy areas, consider applying water directly to the roots using low volume drip irrigation. This will reduce water waste through evaporation or runoff, and will prevent unwanted weeds from growing.
WATER ACCORDING TO WEATHER: Adjust your irrigation system as the seasons and weather change. Or better yet, install a shut-off device that automatically detects rain or moisture. These devices are inexpensive and enable you to take advantage of the water without having paying for it.
