Appropriate watering methods are a critical element of lawn watering. It is essential to know when to water and how much to water. Several vital factors impact accurate methods.

When watering by hand, it will not cover the necessary areas. It takes a lot of patience, time, or "eye" to sufficiently measure applying across any large lawn area. Determine the type of sprinkler system that suits your budget.

UNDERGROUND IRRIGATION SYSTEMS

A professional irrigation specialist will conduct a complete system check-up efficiently. Without an automatic rain sensor shutoff, a preset underground system can operate during rainfall. Also, a frequent problem is when underground sprinkler heads get out of alignment and apply water to the sidewalk, street, or house siding.

UNDERGROUND IRRIGATION SYSTEMS

Above-ground nozzle sprinklers range in complexity, cost, and durability but are highly portable. They can work well when placed correctly in the yard and sufficiently upheld.

• Impulse sprinklers are often used for park areas, stadiums, a lawn on a football field. The principle of operation is to supply water in portions after a particular time: the device turns on, waters the site, turns off, after a while, its waters again. First, the distant parts of the territory are watered, then the near ones. The devices have a high range – up to 65 feet. Another type of irrigation device used most often for watering fields is a frigate sprinkler equipped with rotating blades. It is similar to rotary models. Only water is supplied in parts, as in pulse sprinklers.
• Pop-Up Sprinklers Is the most popular watering device for plants in the country. Watering with the help of these sprinklers is carried out automatically. The sprinklers of the retractable type are mounted in the ground. When you need to water the site (you can also configure the device to water automatically), the tip is pulled out; after watering is completed, it hides under the ground again. One such device can water an area from 13 to 20 Feet, so you need to buy several such devices to a large extent.
• Traveling Sprinklers Traveling sprinklers is machine sprinkler that moves by harnessing the water pressure. No pushing or gasoline is needed for this device.This machine saves you the stress of moving around your lawn trying to water the area. It drives itself around your yard, watering as it goes.
• Rotary Sprinklers are sprinklers, the principle of which is the rotation of the rotor, which covers a large irrigation area (up to 322 sq.f.). The rotary Sprinkler is equipped with a unique stand installed in the ground, while the head with built-in nozzles remains on the surface. During watering, the base remains stationary; only the blades rotate, which can be from 2 to 4 four pieces. A special protective filter is needed to prevent the device from clogging up.
• Oscillating Sprinkler is a watering device designed exclusively for watering rectangular plots. In them, you can change the irrigation sectors, choose the mode for each plant species, and change the tube swing angle. If you reduce or increase the number of nozzles, you can change the watering width.

Whichever sprinkler design you select, keep your system in action to determine problems. Check for leaking pipes or hoses, blocked outlets, leaking or missing gaskets, or misaligned sprinkler heads. Schedule routine maintenance several times during the growing/watering season. For maximum efficiency of in-ground systems, consider an irrigation audit conducted by a certified landscape irrigation auditor (CLIA).
