Irrigation System Design Process
Zone Partitioning
Once the landscape design has been finalized, our irrigation designer will evaluate your yard and partition it into zones based on the various microclimates. Then, the designer will proceed to digitally layout the irrigation system and determine the water requirements for each zone.
Product Selection
Following the assessment, our irrigation designer will look for the most suitable products for your property. As with any construction project, there are a multitude of product options; which is why we consult with local contractors, suppliers, and product manufacturers themselves to ensure you receive quality, cost-effective products that will help your plants thrive.
Additional Equipment
Before finalizing the design, you can opt to have additional equipment installed, such as smart irrigation system controllers that can be remotely connected to your phone or tablet. Although these upgrades come at a higher cost, they are a highly recommended for large estates and commercial properties. Investing in these options will provide peace of mind, as well as convenient access to your system.
Long Term Maintenance
Regular maintenance is essential to keep your irrigation system functioning properly, and should not be overlooked. Irrigation lines are typically buried between 1 to 3 feet deep, so it is vital to have them blown out every fall before the ground freezes. This will clear any remaining water from the lines, preventing them from cracking during winter. In the spring, local irrigation professionals will return to start up your irrigation system and ensure that it is functioning correctly and efficiently.
