With the irrigation installation complete, Nigel and Darren look back and retrace their steps. Retrofitting is a long process!

• According to research, good landscaping can add up to 28% to your home’s overall value, so it’s key to do whatever it takes to keep it looking at its best.
• Conducting an inspection of your home watering system is an important practice for maximising water usage. Audits ensure that water is applied evenly to all areas of the lawn and determine how long a system should run.
• A Hydrawise smart controller can save up to 30% water over typical time based scheduling. Smart controllers help to provide a healthy, beautiful landscape while reducing water use. This not only saves water, but also reduces costs for the homeowner.
• The fundamental design of an irrigation system determines its effectiveness, from spacing to water flow, it determines if a garden can survive and thrive during the long hot summer months.
• To maintain your valves, lift up your irrigation valves with a sharp tool or secateurs - don’t bother with your nails! Pop them up, unscrew it and clean the filter. Doesn’t take much time!
