You've selected the perfect grass, the perfect Japanese maple, irises to bloom in the spring, and russet-colored helenium blooms for the fall. While it may not be the prettiest part of your garden, a sprinkler system is one of the most important components. It saves time, money, and is even good for the environment. - Sprinkler systems can conserve water in many ways. They reduce runoff because sprinkler heads can be installed and aimed to maximize coverage and increase efficiency. In addition, they run on timers, so you can schedule watering times in the early mornings before the sun is up. You won't waste water because you can place the sprinkler so that it doesn't shower the pavement. You also don't have the problem of over watering. And, most sprinkler systems today have moisture sensors, so they won't turn on if it's raining.
- Once your sprinkler system is installed, it is hassle-free. You don't have to spend countless hours uncoiling and recoiling hoses, dragging them across the lawn, setting kitchen timers to remind you to drop what you're doing and run out and move the sprinkler. You set the timer and rest assured that your lawn is being watered.
- Your home is a valuable asset, an investment you cherish and care for. For that reason you want it to look it's best. A sprinkler system ensures the time and effort you put into landscaping your garden does not go to waste. A professionally installed sprinkler system is tailored to your lawn and garden and to the climate in which you live, maximizing the value of your home.
