  • Water bills are increasing despite no change in usage.

  • Low water pressure reduces sprinkler or drip system effectiveness.

  • Sprinkler heads are clogged, leaking, or misaligned.

  • Puddles or runoff form around sprinklers or irrigation lines.

  • Plants show signs of overwatering or dehydration.

  • The system lacks smart controls for seasonal adjustments and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my irrigation system is operating efficiently?

An efficient system distributes water evenly without causing dry patches or runoff. Check for leaks, clogged nozzles, or misaligned sprinkler heads. Smart controllers and pressure regulation can further improve efficiency.

What should I do to prepare my yard before irrigation system installation?

Ensure clear access to all areas needing irrigation and mark underground utilities. Identify plant zones with different water needs for proper system zoning. Our team assesses soil type and layout to customize the system.

How does soil type affect irrigation system performance?

Sandy soils drain quickly, requiring frequent light watering, while clay retains moisture longer. Drip irrigation works best for slow absorption, while sprinklers may need adjusted run times. We design systems based on soil conditions for optimal hydration.

What is the ideal water pressure for a sprinkler or drip irrigation system?

Most sprinkler systems operate best between 30-50 PSI, while drip irrigation works at 10-30 PSI. High pressure can cause misting or pipe damage, while low pressure leads to weak water distribution. Pressure regulators ensure consistent flow.

How often should an irrigation system be inspected and maintained?

Irrigation systems should be checked seasonally for leaks, clogged emitters, and coverage issues. Adjustments may be needed for weather changes, plant growth, or pressure fluctuations. Routine maintenance prevents costly repairs and water waste.
