Golf Courses

A quality irrigation system can be of great benefit to the golf course Superintendent. A well designed system can save you water and money by applying water evenly to all areas while minimising wastage due to overwatering and evaporation. Time and wages can be saved by automating the system, no more dragging out hoses, forgetting about turning taps on and off! An automated system will operate itself at night to avoid vandalism and disruption to players and staff. And of course you will have lush healthy greens!
