An automatic irrigation system offers many benefits to the old hose and sprinkler method of watering grass. An irrigation system can add value in so many ways and save time! However, you also want to ensure proper installation and know about the maintenance involved.
Read on to learn more about installing an irrigation system and its benefits from the professionals at JPL Earthworks.
Save money
It is true that there is more of an upfront cost involved with installing irrigation systems in Edmonton. However, in the long run, your system will save you money. This is because you can set up your system so it knows exactly how much water your lawn needs. When you’re not overwatering, you’ll reap the benefits of your water bills for years. Also, because a water irrigation system delivers water directly to the roots of your plants, this cuts back on the amount of water that evaporates into the air. This will bring more savings on your water bills.
Increased property value
An excellent irrigation system can increase the market value of your home. With an easy-to-maintain lush, green lawn, your property will have upgraded curb appeal. On top of this, if you decide to sell one day, buyers will certainly be interested in a home with an irrigation system.
Cuts back on weeds, fungus and plant disease
An irrigation system will prevent you from overwatering and underwatering your lawn and gardens. As a result, you’ll cut back on the number of weeds to pull. You’ll also reduce the chance of growing fungus or breeding plant disease from a too-wet lawn or garden. With an irrigation system, you’ll maintain beautiful grass through the spring and summer, and your plants will remain happy.
Installation
One thing is for certain, to ensure your irrigation system serves you, you’ll need to hire experienced irrigation installers in Edmonton. Irrigation installation involves complex calculations. Your installers will also need to know about irrigation inspection codes. On the other hand, if you try this yourself and install your irrigation system improperly, you could end up with major issues. Avoid all this and hire an irrigation specialist like JPL Earthworks!
Maintenance
Although an irrigation system will save the time you spend caring for your lawn, there are maintenance considerations. For example, you’ll want to check for wet and dry areas. You may also need to watch for any leaks in the system. Landscapers in Edmonton can also come out and inspect your system as required. When you install an irrigation system with JPL Earthworks, they’ll be there for you every step of the way!
