- How it works?
- The system is directly connected to your home’s plumbing and pipes, so you don’t need to plug it into a hose or anything.
- Can I do it myself?
- Unless you yourself are an expert, it’s not typically a good idea, as it usually leads to more headache than savings.
- Installing an underground sprinkler system requires a lot of knowledge that the typical homeowner usually doesn’t have.
- Water Conservation
- An underground sprinkler system can really help you save water.
- You can target only things that grow, and target them with the right amount of time and water.
- Sensors and Timers
- Using a timer, you can set a schedule that not only fits your needs but also meets the requirements of your local government regulations on water usage.
- You can also set up sensors, which are not just great for saving water (by turning off the schedule on a rainy day) but also help if you have particularly sensitive plants in your garden that could get damaged by heavy watering.
- Different Types
- Add various types of sprinkler heads to best suit your front and backyards.
- You can include features like sprinkler heads with softer water sprays, or even drip line emitters.
- Learn Your System
- You should make sure to either get a document with all the information, or write down the specific brands and literature concerning your specific equipment.
