Irrigation

Pipe sizing is another important aspect of proper design. Selection of pipe sizes should be based on water gallons per minute available and sprinkler types used; incorrect pipe sizing can cause some sprinklers to apply more water than others, resulting in non-uniform application and wasted water.

System Design

GreenCare will design and propose a system that will meet your needs. We have qualified staff that can design a system for residential, commercial, landscape beds, and athletic complexes. We design the system for maximum coverage in an innovative and efficient manner, using the highest quality and most up-to-date components and materials available.

The GreenCare Installation Difference:

• Extensive experience in the breadth of projects completed: homes, lake homes, apartments, townhomes, commercial, retail, government, industrial, athletic, drip irrigation, and indoor tropical gardens, to name a few. Project sizes have varied from 1 residential lot to 1 city block to a complete complex of homes, commercial property, or athletic fields.
• Dedicated irrigation crews, service crews, vehicles and equipment. Irrigation is not a side line.
• GreenCare follows industry practices in our designs so as to not exceed water source capability in gpm (gallons per minute) and flow (feet per second). Systems are installed per commercial specs.
• GreenCare only installs name brand, commercial grade irrigation equipment manufactured by industry leaders such as Hunter, Weathermatic, Rain Bird, & Toro.
• An industry-standard backflow prevention device is provided and installed, with backdrains on the bottom of the backflow prevention device.
• GreenCare uses copper pipe and fittings in above-ground piping, vs. black poly used by others.
• We use PVC pipe and fittings for mainline piping. This provides for glued and fitted piping, vs. screw clamps on poly pipe.
• Double oetiker clamps on poly pipe lateral lines vs. 1 clamp.
• 14 GA control wire vs. 18 GA, with waterproof wire nuts on all below-ground connections.
• Irrigation control wires above ground are run in conduit for neatness and code compliance.
