Irrigation Sprinkler System Installation & Services Winnipeg

Irrigation Installation

​

Irrigation is a great way to have an amazing lawn and healthy plants. Through a properly constructed and designed system, we can regulate water cycles, including length of watering, areas being watered and times and days to water. These choices and settings allow us to create a system that will free up your time and allow for a healthy yard. Irrigation systems also increase the value of your home and save money on ineffective watering.

​

Irrigation System Components

Regular System

Controller - A wall mounted unit that controls the irrigation system by programed controls. This allows you to have complete control over your system without any effort, at the touch of a few buttons

Valves - These units control each zone, they receive a signal from the controller telling them when to turn the sprinklers on or off

Pipes and connectors - These run from the water supply at your home to the valves, then from the valves to each sprinkler head

Heads - These units take in water and spray it onto the lawn or plants, they are typically customizable to change patterns and distance.

Spray Heads - These heads are typically used for small areas and are very efficient, typically only requiring watering a lawn for 8 or less minutes a few times each week.

Rotor Heads - These are the types of heads you would typically see on golf courses or in larger areas. They water areas slowly therefor requiring longer run times.

​

Drip Irrigation

All components are typically the same as a regular system and can tie into the same system you use for watering a lawn. There is one exception. There are no heads, instead we install the following:

Micro Bubblers - Used in beds which consist of annuals, trees and food gardens or box gardens. They are essentially a mini sprinkler head and water quickly, they cover an area instead of a specific plant.

Drip Emitters - The most efficient method to water plants, shrubs and trees. Each plant receives its own drip emitter. These are pointed towards the root ball. Flow rates are typically .5gph, 1gph and 2gph

Drip Tubing - The most common drip system, it consists of in line emitters placed around the plant. Flow rates are typically  .4gph, .6gph and .9gph

​

What is an "Irrigation Zone"?

An irrigation zone is the combination of a valve, pipe and heads or drip system. Each valve controls an irrigation zone. There should only be one type of head or drip type on each zone however each zone may control multiple heads.

Why Install Irrigation?

​

You have complete control

You control the time you want it to water your lawn and how much water goes down. While others are waking up and tripping over their hoses, you can sleep in and wake up to a freshly watered lawn.

​

Less Maintenance

Set it and forget it! Lawns don't have to be a lot of work. Cutting that time down will allow you to spend more time on things important to you.

​

Help The Environment

Customize your water coverage so it only waters your lawn and not your cement driveway. Conserve water in the mean time by applying as little water as possible only to your lawn, putting money back in your pocket on your water bills.

​

Great For Business'

If you own a business, image is everything. Your lawn is one of the first things people see when visiting. Keeping a healthy lawn shown customers that you're able to keep a neat business. Automating lawn watering helps keep costs and maintenance low. Best of all you can set it to go on at night when its most effective, you aren't there and when customers wont be bothered.

​

Prevent Weeds and Have a Lush Healthy Lawn

With the new weed pesticide laws its harder to get rid of weeds in your lawn. A thick lawn is one of the best ways to suffocate them and leave your lawn looking great, healthy and a lush green colour.

​

Increase The Value of Your Home

Adding Irrigation to your yard is an investment that adds time, effort and money back into your pocket. When its time to sell, your yard will add extra value to your home and is a great selling feature.

​

Not Just For Yards

Irrigation doesn't have to be just for lawns, its a great system for gardens, agriculture or topping off ponds. If you're a business owner in agriculture or farming, you know how important efficiency is, adding irrigation to your plan can be a great approach to cut costs and allow more time spent on other things.

​

Consistency Is Key

Consistent regular watering is the best way to have a healthy lawn or plants, keep everything healthy and happy with consistent proper coverage.
