When you are looking at a new irrigation system it is important to consider the products such as rotors, sprayers, controller and even nozzles. You should expect your water bill to go up when you irrigate, however, you can save money on that water bill by using water efficient sprinkler heads and nozzles. Ask your Atlanta Irrigation Companies to tell you about the differences and even what you could save.

Outdoor Lighting - Landscape Lighting

If you are thinking about installing outdoor landscape lighting, not only for security, but because it will make your home look incredible at not, be sure to consider the quality and warranty of products before you make a decision.

While products from DIY stores are very inexpensive, they do not have the warranty or quality of a product offered by a contractor. Many lights offered by contractors have up to a 15 year warranty (no less than 5 in most cases). While you will spend more upfront, you will get a longer life system choosing a contractor grade outdoor lighting.

Whether your considering a new irrigation system or looking to have an existing system repaired, your choice of irrigation companies will have an impact on the longevity of your irrigation system.

On a new irrigation system, ask about minimum state requirements such as rain sensors & backflows. On an irrigation system repair, ask about warranties as well as if anything can increase the efficiency of your irrigation system.

Irrigation Winterization

So you don't think you need to winterize your irrigation system? At least do these couple of things, shut off the water. Run your system for about 30 sec to clear as much water as possible. Unplug your controller. You aren't fully protected as you would be with a professional winterization but it's better than nothing. If you don't have a separate shut off for your irrigation system, your system is really at risk in the winter because water remains in the pipe. Consider having a shutoff installed.

Millenium is just a pleasure to do business with. I had a problem with my irrigation system for two years ( was not installed by millenium) and three different companies could not identify the problem. After seeing and article about Millenium I call them and Greg solved the problem. He also helped fixed a neighbors system. I then had millenium install a new system for a second house we own. Greg, Carla and family are the real deal and will make sure you are completely satisfied with their service"

Your irrigation system is meant to subsidize the natural rainfall...meaning don't count on your landscape irrigation system to do all your watering. Your irrigation system should be tuned to work with the needs of your landscape and the weather. Two great ways to maximize your irrigation system ET systems and Smart Controllers. Tomorrow, I'll tell you about ET systems.

It's been a while since I've blogged about this topic but it seems I need to do so again. About 5 years ago the state said you must install a backflow prevention device and rain sensor. Backflow prevention is super important for the safety of your family and the drinking water supply in general. This photos is of a double-check backflow device which is provides the best protection for your irrigation system and is testable. Many places south of Atlanta require these types of backflow devices and annual testing for your protection.
