Low-Flow Sprinklers

 Low-flow sprinklers typically deliver the same amount of water as standard Sprinkler Heads with less watering of sidewalks and other areas that don't have vegetation. They also use less water because they operate at lower pressures and apply the volume of water gradually over time instead of dumping it all at once as builder-grade Sprinkler Head does. This saves money, time and prevents the water from pooling on sidewalks where it could evaporate or create runoff.

Low-flow Sprinkler Heads typically screw onto existing risers, but if you want to replace your sprinklers with low-flow Sprinkler Heads, you need a new riser for each one. Also, make sure there is at least 1/2 inch of open space between the top of the soil and the bottom of your old Sprinkler Head's deflector (the part that rotates and sprays water). If not, you'll need to adjust by digging out some dirt around your old Sprinkler Head; otherwise, it won't work properly with low-flow Sprinkler Heads.

Other Sprinkler Options

• Rotating sprinkler heads are a great way to water a larger defined area. The sprinkler head can be adjusted to deliver the correct amount of water to your lawn and in the areas that need it most. Supplying a stream of water, these heads won't suffer from the water drifting in the wind like typical spray irrigation heads.

• Spray Irrigation heads work best for small to medium lawn areas evenly distributing water. With the average system pressure of 15 to 20 psi, these heads need to be within 15 feet of each other in order to achieve full watering coverage.

• Bubbler Irrigation for trees and shrubs to deliver a pool of water around the root system.

• Soaker System and Drip Irrigation are used in flower beds delivering a slow release of water to the base of the plant which is a more efficient form of irrigation. Ideally, drip irrigation should be on a dedicated zone so the proper about of water can be delivered to your plants.
