EXPERT DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM INSTALLATION

 EFFICIENT WATER SAVINGS USING DRIP IRRIGATION
With many areas facing droughts and enforcing water restrictions periodically throughout the year, conserving water and using it efficiently is sensible and saves you money. A professionally designed drip irrigation system will provide minimal water runoff, little if any evaporation, and deep percolation.
As part of Steve's Sprinkler Repair services, our irrigation specialists design and install professional drip irrigation systems to ensure that plants, trees, flowers, and foliage receive proper watering directly at the roots.

HOW DOES DRIP IRRIGATION WORK?
Drip irrigation means that drops of water are slowly delivered to the soil directly at the root zone of plants and trees, without wasting water on areas of the landscape that don’t need it.
By placing the drip emitters just at the plant’s root zone, you can use less water and with greater efficiency. This irrigation method allows the water to move deeper into the soil, encouraging deeper root growth.
In addition, the low flow of the drip system enables the watering of large areas using a single water source. Another advantage of using a low-flowing drip irrigation system is that it allows watering any time of the day!
The working principle of drip irrigation is based on the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum concept (SPAC). According to this concept, water and dissolved minerals move through the soil from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration by means of gravity and capillary action.
The water then moves through the plant and finally evaporates from the leaves into the atmosphere. The continuum concept helps to understand how water moves in the soil-plant-atmosphere system and is a useful tool for designing irrigation systems.

WHEN TO USE A DROP IRRIGATION SYSTEM?
Drip irrigation can be used on all types of landscapes, including slopes and flat areas. It is an efficient way to water trees, shrubs, ground covers, and even potted plants.
Drip irrigation is the most efficient type of irrigation system, using less water than other methods such as sprinklers. With a properly designed and installed drip irrigation system, you can save water and money while still providing your plants and landscaping with the moisture they need to stay healthy and thrive.


BENEFITS OF DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Water Efficiency and Savings: Applying slow drips of water directly where it’s needed eliminates runoff and leads to less evaporation from soil and leaves. This also achieves maximum water conservation and savings on your water bill.
Professional Installation: Steve's Sprinkler installs your drip irrigation system quickly and efficiently. You will have your system working the same day, we guarantee it!
Eliminating Weeds and Water-Borne Pests: By focusing the water on the root base of the plants, weeds will not receive the moisture needed to spread. This process also reduces the standing water, which provides mosquitoes the chance to lay their eggs and spread disease.
Versatile and Flexible: Slow drip irrigation systems can be used in new and existing landscapes, easily adapting to configurations where there are slopes, rugged terrain, and areas that receive a lot of wind.
Targeting the Root Zone: Steve's drip irrigation systems are meant to improve and increase existing or new root activity, which creates a beneficial environment for plant growth.
Savings: Conservation and saving money are two great reasons why you should invest in a professionally installed drip irrigation system by Steve’s Sprinkler Repair LLC.
As you can see, a low-volume drip irrigation system benefits your landscape, improves the aesthetics around the outside of your home, and protects the environment. If you’re tired of losing your plants, shrubs, flowers, and trees to hot Texas summers, give us a call to schedule!
