Albuquerque Sprinkler Installation There are several things to consider when shopping for a new irrigation system in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. Our licensed irrigators will take the time to help you understand your options while providing you with a no-pressure, no-obligation bid. As you begin to consider your needs in a new sprinkler system, bear in mind these important factors.
Design
The irrigation system design is the most important thing to consider since it’s the only thing that can’t be changed. You can always replace a sprinkler head, valve, or controller, but the cost to move all your heads would be equivalent to installing a whole new system. When choosing a sprinkler company with a proven track record of customer satisfaction. A good design will save on the cost of ownership, lasts longer, have lower water bills, and require less attention.
Parts
There are a lot of manufacturers in the irrigation market. But bear in mind, a brand name alone doesn’t ensure you are getting a high-quality part. Even the big brands like Hunter, Rainbird, Irritrol, Weathermatic, and Toro sell sprinkler parts that vary in quality.
Installation
Since 90% of the sprinkler system is underground it’s hard to tell the difference between a good installation and a bad one. Most people think because they see the sprinklers work and there are no leaks, the installation was done right. But even without leaks or obvious issues, a poorly installed system will require frequent repair and expense. There are important steps that should be taken to ensure a successful installation. We recommend leaving 6″ between fittings, using the horseshoe technique for valve installation, and using proper burial wires for peak reliability and minimal cost of ownership.

Sadly, many irrigation companies come and go, so it’s important to choose one that will be around to honor your warranty.

Albuquerque Sprinkler Inspection
Sprinkler System leaks and failures can lead to high water bills and potential damage to your home and property. If you are a homeowner or thinking about purchasing a home with a sprinkler system, have it inspected. Even though most of the sprinkler system is located underground, a knowledgeable service technician will assess the sprinkler operation. This will include a visible inspection of the controller, connections, sprinkler heads, control valves, backflow preventer, and rain sensor. Water meters are also inspected as a means of uncovering any possible leaks. We recommend that you have your irrigation system serviced at least twice a year by a licensed professional.

Albuquerque Drip Irrigation Installation

Albuquerque Drip Irrigation InstallationLandscape drip irrigation is a method of delivering water slowly, at low pressure, at or near the root zone of the landscape plant material. It is often referred to as targeted or precise watering because drip irrigation allows you to target the precise area that you want to irrigate. Drip irrigation systems typically operate between 15-50 psi, and flow rates are measured in gallons/hour (GPH) versus gallons/minute (GPM).
What is subsurface drip irrigation? Subsurface drip irrigation is tubing that is trenched below the grass surface. The system delivers water directly to the root system, where water is needed. Grass blades do not need watering, so getting the water directly to the root system is a more reliable way of ensuring the turf is getting water where water is needed.
Drip irrigation is the most efficient type of irrigation and subsurface drip is especially so because it is unaffected by wind and evaporation. This results in 70% less water use than conventional overhead sprinklers.
There is a high degree of water application control which ensures that turf is being watered the same amount throughout. The better the distribution uniformity, the deeper the root growth for turf will be.
With Discount Sprinklers Irrigation Drip Systems it is possible to irrigate regardless of wind conditions. Lower pressures are generally needed and lower flow per unit area, requiring less water and energy. It also solves the problem of water evaporating from the surface of the turf before it can reach the root system.
Compared with spray heads where water from the surface relies on gravity to infiltrate the root system. Discount Sprinklers can design a drip irrigation system to put the water right where you need it. Think of it like a gas tank for a car that enables you to distribute gas directly to the engine where it is needed to run. Subsurface irrigation allows you to put water in the turfs “gas tank” so it can be delivered to the roots, right where the water is needed.
