Water Management
Our goal as irrigation contractors is to use the least amount of water possible necessary to sustain healthy plant life. A few of the ways this can be done is through proper system hydraulics, system layout, nozzle selection, smart controllers, and schedule management.
A thorough, in depth system analysis enables us to identify deficiencies in the irrigation system that could be reducing the efficiency. Rectifying these issues typically results in an average reduced watering cost of 25-60%.
Drip Irrigation
Drip irrigation for the landscape has been around for more than a decade now. When installed properly it is the most efficient way to water plant material within our region.
It eliminates water loss due to evaporation, reduces water use and plant obstruction by placing the water directly in the root zone, prevents disease and fungus by not spraying the foliage, and eliminates overspray on the house and hardscape. On average drip irrigation uses 40 percent less water than standard over head irrigation.
Renewable Rainwater
Recycling rainwater is an innovative process of saving today’s rain for tomorrow’s demands. This “green” concept has evolved from its origin as a daily necessity in early civilization to an effort of conserving water and reducing our ecological foot print today. By collecting, filtering and storing rainwater from roofs, parking areas, and other impermeable surfaces we are able to supply many different watering needs including irrigation systems.
Corbett’s experience with rainwater harvesting systems encompasses all aspects of this cutting edge concept. With today’s technology we continue to improve the quality of collecting, filtering and the distribution of rainwater. Using this ability, we are able to create less dependency on domestic water supplies, save energy, reduce water shortages, and control storm water impacts.
