Irrigation<br />
vital in hot<br />
dry weather<br />
Now the hot days of summer are on their way,<br />
Canterbury home owners will be wanting to make<br />
full use of their outdoor areas to entertain family<br />
and friends, so having lawns and gardens in tip-top<br />
condition will be a priority.<br />
Freeman Irrigation, a locally owned and operate<br />
company, can provide a range of cost effective and easy<br />
to use automated options.<br />
The company installs their pipes with a Mole Plough<br />
which provides a no mess solution to the installation.<br />
“With this ‘invisible’ trencher you wouldn’t know<br />
we have been on your property within just a couple of<br />
weeks,” says Phil.<br />
Many irrigation options utilise the latest technology<br />
where sprinklers can be connected to weather station<br />
forecasts using WiFi so if rain is expected the amount<br />
of water is reduced.<br />
By operating your system remotely, the flow can<br />
be adjusted to suit the conditions, saving water and<br />
money.<br />
“We have a range of smartphone controllers and rain<br />
sensors that can be fitted to most systems, allowing<br />
to have easy control from anywhere. If you want to<br />
save money and conserve water a good rain sensor<br />
is an affordable solution,” says Phil from Freeman<br />
Irrigation.<br />
It is worthwhile to also check any problems you<br />
may have with your existing irrigation. Some of the<br />
basic problems include clogged sprinklers; leaking<br />
sprinklers and valves; obstructed sprinklers;<br />
leaking/blocked solenoid valves; overspray onto<br />
footpaths, streets or buildings; design problems;<br />
missing nozzles or pipe leaks and breaks.<br />
Freeman Irrigation provides an extensive range<br />
of irrigation services, not just for residential<br />
homes but also parks, golf courses, horticultural<br />
and viticultural properties, sub-divisions and<br />
commercial properties.<br />
