Irrigation Options For Your Yard

December 15, 2022 by Shelly Ragan

Irrigation Options For Your YardIf you are tired of deploying sprinklers and standing over your yard with a hose, you might be interested in some irrigation options. There are plenty of choices available, and you need to think about all of your options before you decide which one is best for your needs. What are a few examples to consider?

A Drip Irrigation System

A drip irrigation system delivers water directly to the roots of plants. It delivers water at a slow, steady pace using micro-sprayers, bubbler nozzles, or inline emitters. The biggest advantage of this type of system is that it uses significantly less water when compared to other watering systems. There is no runoff or wastewater because the water itself is delivered directly to the root system. On the other hand, a drip irrigation system requires a significant amount of maintenance to prevent mineral buildup and system clogs from forming.

A Spray System

A spray system is arguably the most popular method to deliver water to just about every type of landscape. It typically consists of a controller system, a series of valves, and sprinklers that will automatically distribute water. The biggest advantage of a spray system is that it can cover an immense amount of area with ease. The downside is that it may have a difficult time keeping the water evenly dispersed on a sloped landscape.

A Rotor System

A rotor system is very similar to a spray system; however, the sprinkler heads rotate on a rotor system. They do not rotate on a spray system. A rotor system typically distributes water more evenly when compared to a traditional spray system. The downside is that a rotor system requires higher water pressure than a spray system, which means that it might be more expensive.

Choose The Right Irrigation System For Your Yard

In the end, these are a few of the most popular options if you are looking for an irrigation system for your yard. Each system has its benefits and drawbacks, and the right option for one person is not necessarily the right option for you. If you are having a hard time deciding which system to go with, consider reaching out to an expert who can help you.
