Why Install Sub Surface Irrigation?
To dramatically reduce water usage – With a well designed system and the correct watering schedule you may see savings of up to 75% compared with a conventional pop up sprinkler system. Since 1965 major pipe manufacturers have pioneered the science of drip irrigation for both commercial and domestic applications. What is Sub Surface Irrigation? Sub surface drip irrigation involves the application of water to lawn via pipes, which are installed totally underground. The pipe carries evenly spaced drippers, which deliver water directly to the root zone of the turf. Irrigation below ground offers several features that provide significant benefits over conventional above ground irrigation. Sub Surface Irrigation: • Eliminates evaporation, thereby reducing water loss • Is not affected by wind, therefore eliminating the waste caused by drift, over spray and run off. • Does not create pools of excess water • Can be installed on uneven ground eg slopes, without run-off • Ensures water applicati
