Historically, most irrigation systems lack pressure-regulated sprinklers, which often leads to operating in an over-pressurized manner. Over-pressurization can cause water loss and contribute to uneven watering.
Pressure-regulating spray heads are a developing technology designed to regulate pressure to optimal performance. These spray heads include built-in regulators that maintain a more constant pressure for optimal nozzle performance.
WHY IS PRESSURE REGULATION IMPORTANT?
Two reasons: Pressure regulation saves water and it is likely soon to be the law.
WATER SAVINGS:
Compared with non-regulated sprinklers, pressure-regulated sprinklers will use about 20-25% less water.
And, if the nozzle breaks, pressure regulators are estimated to save 70% of the water that might have been spilled if using an older sprinkler system!
These products, along with Pacific Landscape Maintenance services and capabilities, enable customers conserve water and save on operational expenses.
