DRIP IRRIGATION
The most effective method of providing direct water to the trees, gardens and potted plants in your “non-turf” landscapes. The efficiency of regular sprinklers that are designed for turf coverage, such as rotors, and spray-heads, is typically 50% when being used for those non-turf areas. However, the precision rate of a custom-designed drip irrigation system is close to 100%. What is more is that you can tailor the drip irrigation system to deliver the precise amounts of water required by individual plants.
EFFICIENCY IS KEY
Additional benefits of a drip irrigation system:
• Drip is often installed on the surface of your garden bed so that the water applied passes through the root zone of your plant material, hydrating the plant directly;
• Combined with a proper coverage of mulch, there is very little water lost to evaporation;
• Drip systems improve overall plant health by reducing fluctuations in soil moisture;
• Drip irrigation is often exempt from municipal watering restrictions because it is so efficient.
