Irrigation Systems Atlanta

There are two popular methods of laying pipe for irrigation systems. Most irrigation companies either dig trenches to house irrigation pipes or they use a vibratory plow to pull the pipe underground. While the plow is less disruptive to the landscape and may allow for quicker recovery time, it is not the most stable environment for irrigation pipes. Trenches, on the other hand, provide a more stable environment for the irrigation pipe. Trenching is our preferred method for installing the pipe and this means a longer lasting, lower maintenance irrigation system.

Right now is the best time to plan and install your new irrigation system in Atlanta. Installation this time of year, particularly while the sod is dormant, will allow the trench lines to cover from the installation when the sod comes out of dormancy. This will provide you with a luxurious green lawn this spring.
There will be a rush after the first few warm days of people trying to plan and install irrigation systems as there is every year. I would highly recommend you do this now to beat the rush. Most irrigation companies in Atlanta are running specials for new irrigation system installations and giving free new irrigation system estimates. You will already be ahead of the game when spring comes so that your lawn reaches it's fullest potential.

Do you have an new irrigation system and have you noticed an increase in your water bill since having it installed? Water rates vary from county to county and the differences can be anywhere from slight to phenomenal. This will depend largely on the frequency with which you water your lawn but also the duration of those watering times. The irrigation company that installed your system should be up to date on efficent watering practices plus be able to offer you some inexpensive money-saving solutions. Ask about things like adjusting the frenquency and length of watering times or installing check valves in rotor and sprayers. Sometimes its the simplest adustments that can get some cash back in your pocket.

When getting your quotes for your new irrigation system be sure to ask your irrigation contractor about what products they are using and why. Ask about any special features those products have, how they benefit you and for any written information on those products. Make sure any irrigation contractor you use knows all about the products they want to put in your yard to be sure you're getting the very best you can get.

Once you have decided to get an new irrigation system and decided on an irrigation company in Atlanta for installation of that irrigation system, be sure that all aspects of the irrigation system are explained to you. Location of your irrigation shut off valve, sensors, valves and heads are of the utmost importance. Also, be sure that your irrigation controller is programmed for the specific needs of your landscape and to supplement rainfall. If you have steep landscape, ask about setting a program for cycle and soak - meaning running shorter times for more cycles to prevent runoff and therefore water waste.

So you're thinking about a new irrigation system? Remember, warranty on your system is important but it is more important that whomever you choose can back up the warranty. We've gotten a lot of phone calls lately for system repairs where the customers thought they were protected by a warranty and they were given one. Unfortunately, the company and/or people who installed their irrigation system can no longer be found. Time in business and local or community ties seems to be the most indicative of being able to back up a warranty.

If your thinking about a new irrigation system in Atlanta be sure to ask the following questions: how long is my warranty and what does it cover? how long have you been in business? what type of products will you be using? do you provide backflow prevention? do you install a rain sensor? will there be a separate shut-off valve? So many companies don't take the time to tell you guys about your system and your spending a large sum of money for it so they should. If they don't ask them!

New Irrigation System in Atlanta

Yesterday we completed the new system in Cumming and are now off to Dallas to start another highly efficient Hunter irrigation system. This is a 5 zone Hunter irrigation system with a Pro-C and Solar Sync. I'll hopefully be able to get you some pictures of this one.

Irrigation Backflow Prevention

Ok...today I'm going to vent. It is irresponsible and dangerous for an irrigation company to NOT install a backflow prevention device on a new irrigation system. The key to prevent contaminants such as fertilizers, pesticides and animal waste is simple...BACKFLOW PREVENTION. Valves are not sufficient to stop backflow and water pressure is not always constant enough to prevent backflow. More counties and cities are setting standards for backflow prevention and they need to. In the last two weeks alone, I've seen 6 systems without backflow (installed in the last 5 years) and my techs have seen even more. Don't gamble with your health. You can have a beautiful lawn and be safe about it. BACKFLOW PREVENTION is not only the law but THE SMART THING TO DO.

New Irrigation System Installation

Today will be the first of probably 3 days of a new irrigation system installation. This project has 6 zones (one of micro misters), a Pro-C controller and highly efficient Hunter Solar Sync. When installing an irrigation system in this county, you are required to get a separate irrigation meter. We are combining this with drainage correction and look forward to getting started.
