Sprinkler And Drip Irrigation Repair Companies Help Keep Your Lawn Green And Water Usage Low

By Martha Hill


Drip irrigation is a nice method to water your plants and trees while saving money on your water bill. We're all becoming more water conscious. And drip irrigation can help with so much when is functioning as intended by the manufacturer. However, there are instances where you can experience setbacks and challenges as with any other machine or device. It is at this point that one should consider drip irrigation repair to make sure that normalcy is retained.

Service and maintenance is extremely crucial and any Watering Company ought to know this, especially through the warm or hot days where water will become all the more required. Try to find an watering company that will provide you with a rapid response. I had an encounter with a local watering company in Burlington where one of our water lines broke.

It's an efficient watering system but has its drawbacks too. The main one is that over time it gets damaged by the heat, sun, and cold weather. It is also easy for small animals such as rabbits and ground squirrels to chew through. And, this time of year, the animals are thirsty and trying to get water any way they can. An easy way is for them to dig up a poly line and chew through it. This creates a leak.

A lot of people tend to use the same sprinkler or sprinkler system, even when its not watering the entire law, has a leak, or is in need of watering. This is one of the worst things you can do. Proper lawn care takes time - your time. You've probably invested a lot of time to have the best looking lawn on your street.

This may take some time - so you shouldn't rush to start your operation just yet. Contact an irrigation company and have them come around for an evaluation of your property, and then they'll tell you how much the whole thing is going to cost and what you'll need to do to prepare your land for it. That last part is important - often, you'll have to make some preparations to accommodate the technology for your new irrigation system, especially if you're ordering something more complex that requires a careful preparation.

Always make sure that your watering system is not running when you do this. You don't want to have water gushing through the line while you are restoring. Add a coupler on each side of the new poly and connect it to the existing poly line and you're done.

Newer, more durable poly line material is now available. This reduces leaks because it is more resistant to animal damage and the elements. Emitters have also been improved. The newer ones last longer and stay attached to poly and spaghetti lines better.

In addition, examine the warranty for any potential problems with things that you're doing to your watering system - that is, make sure that there's not something that's prohibited by the warranty deal which you commonly do with your watering systems, which could potentially void your warranty very early on.
