It will do a much better job because the system waters automatically -
placing exactly the right amount of water on individual lawn and garden areas.
It never gets too busy to water properly, and it never forgets to turn off the
water at the appropriate time.
Yes, having an automatic sprinkler system means never having to spend another
minute of your valuable time watering the lawn or flowers. Your new system will
do all of the watering for you - even when you're away from home. You'll be able
to just forget about watering and spend your free time doing the things you
really like to do.
If it rained at your house every three days - the same exact amount each time
- you probably wouldn't need a sprinkler system. But nature doesn't work that
way, and the only way to ensure healthy, lush growth is to make certain your
lawn and plants receive a regularly timed, evenly measured amount of water. In
the dry season when there is little or no rain, your yard can suffer damage
after just a few days without water.
A sprinkler system can be installed anywhere, in any climate. The key is
maintenance and ensuring the system is properly winterized, preventing any
freeze damage.
A minimal amount of disturbance to your landscape will occur during
installation. Our specialized machinery installs pipe without digging a trench.
Also our crews are experienced at restoring your landscape to its original
condition.
The sprinkler system will be set up on different zones. There can be
different zones for the lawn, shrubs and flowers. Each of these zones can have a
different time schedule for watering.
Our professional irrigation technician will design and install the most
cost-effective and energy-efficient solution possible. You can be certain that
he will select the most appropriate equipment for the job, while streamlining
the maintenance required to keep your landscaping in top shape.
He will pay special attention to such important factors as sprinkler patterns
(it is important to overlap the patterns so that the outer edges receive
sufficient water for healthy growth) and backflow prevention (which is necessary
to protect your drinking water supply). Because your contractor is familiar
with local plumbing and electrical codes, you won't have to worry about costly
mistakes in wiring or pipe installation. He will do the job faster, with less
disruption to existing landscaping, and will guarantee his work.
A rain shut-off is a device that will interrupt the program on the clock
during a rain shower. It will automatically reset when it is dry therefore
avoiding water waste.
Sprinkler systems are very easy to operate. Our technician will set the
system's controller with your individual watering schedule. Then all you have to do
is sit back and let the system do all the work. And, the watering schedule
easily can be changed if necessary by just following the easy instruction on the
inside of the controlled cabinet. Our technician will work with you and explain
the system's operation.
The price of a system will vary depending upon labor costs and other factors
such as property size, type of landscaping and special designs. But you can
count on our irrigation technician to recommend and design the right system for
you at the lowest possible cost.
