Regardless of where a person lives in South Florida, they likely will need their sprinkler system to operate well to keep their lawn and landscaping healthy due to the extreme heat and periodic dry weather we experience in the area. Top irrigation south florida businesses such as Bob Irsay Irrigation Design, Inc. help residential customers, commercial customers and communities across the area stay green all year long.

Keep Your Boca Raton Sprinklers in Great Condition

Regularly having your sprinkler system checked can literally save your lawn and prevent expensive problems. Frequent “wet checks” of your sprinklers will identify common problems like faulty solenoids. Defective solenoids can keep entire zones from operating, which can cause a whole section of someone’s lawn to die. During wet checks, we check the on/off operation of each zone, and repair or replace heads as necessary. When necessary, we cut grass away from heads so they can pop-up as intended. We also repair broken lines, which reduces water waste, and adjust heads to minimize overspray. Regular maintenance of sprinkler systems prolongs the life of the components of the sprinkler system and improves their performance.

Irrigate Your Lawn Intelligently This Summer

Although the summer rains have finally come, providing much needed relief from the heat and dry conditions of earlier in the year, South Florida homeowners can help their lawns thrive and spend less money watering their yards with efficient irrigation and smart irrigation products. Boca Raton residents can use their boca raton sprinklers less by installing water-saving products like rainswitches and “smart” clocks. Such products can limit overwatering and water waste by keeping people’s sprinklers from running after sufficient rainfall.

Leading sprinkler companies in the South Florida region like Bob Irsay Irrigation Design, Inc. help South Florida customers irrigate their yards intelligently. By cutting down on water waste like overspray onto hardscapes, these businesses can adjust customers’ sprinkler systems to water only where needed and as much as necessary. Bob Irsay Irrigation Design offers a number of smart irrigation south florida products and services to improve the efficiency of customers’ irrigation systems. Watering one’s lawn during or after rain represents one of the more egregious examples of water waste.  Bob Irsay Irrigation Design can retrofit many sprinkler systems with rainswitches. These threshold devices prevent customers’ sprinkler systems from running if the device registers a certain amount of precipitation, such as half an inch of rain. To work properly, these devices should be installed in areas where they have a clear path to the sky.

Other “smart irrigation” products include specialized sprinkler heads, rotary nozzles, in-ground moisture sensors and “smart” controllers. Consumers can opt for heads with “seal” features and pressure regulators. These heads automatically prevent water from gushing out if the heads get broken. Rotary nozzles provide more efficient watering than standard nozzles, delivering water at higher precipitation rates. In-ground moisture sensors communicate with sprinkler controllers to keep given sprinkler zones from running if these zones have enough moisture. Smart controllers adjust irrigation watering automatically to water only as much as needed, taking into account various weather conditions.
