Why is Irrigation Important?
Plants need four things to live: water, oxygen, sunlight, and soil. The most inconsistent of these is water. Both Baton Rouge and New Orleans have droughts which cause your plants to wilt and die. Help to ensure your yard and garden stay healthy by having an irrigation system installed. Your existing sprinkler system should get checked routinely. Let us calibrate the water spray patters to accommodate your mature plants. Plants outgrow old designs. Small modifications can have your system working as intended. GreenSeasons is licensed, insured and bonded. We have an impeccable record of satisfied clients whose irrigation system we have installed and maintain.
Professional Sprinkler System Design
Have your sprinkler system designed by a licensed professional who has completed hundreds of irrigation systems. Rest assured your irrigation will operate with the correct pressure per irrigation head and wet only the areas intended. An improperly designed irrigation system can end up costing your more in the future.
A professionally installed irrigation system for your landscaping and grass will keep your plants looking good and healthy. Businesses and homeowners often spend thousands of dollars on new landscaping, but try to save a little by foregoing the irrigation system. You risk all of the time and money you have spent by skipping a method for automatic watering. You can add a micro irrigation system yourself to one of your hoses with a battery operated timer. This usually lacks the proper coverage and can lead to dry spots in your yard, especially with the summer heat in both New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
The benefits of an underground irrigation system installed by a licensed professional are numerous. First, you know your system is up to code and equipped with a back flower preventor. This prevents the water in your irrigation pipes from flowing back into the drinking water. Second, all tips in an irrigation zone will put out water at a similar rate. This water balance will keep all areas in the zone evenly watered. This lets you set the appropriate time for zones watering large trees when compare to a zone watering grass. If zones are mixed, something will not get the right amount of water.Third, your yard will be surveyed for existing utility lines. Damaging one of these can be both costly and dangerous. Fourth, a professional irrigation company will often tie your new irrigation system into a separate water meter. The second water meter can be registered as one that does not tie back into sewage. This will save your a lot in the long run since you will not pay sewage usage fees on the gallons used to water your grass, shrubs, and trees. Lastly, you will have nearly complete coverage across all irrigation zones and sprinkler heads.
