The most advantageous and convenient irrigation systems for the garden

Today there are various irrigation systems for the garden, starting with a simple watering can and ending with automatic devices. When planning the suburban area it is better to immediately think about installing an irrigation system. The lack of watering will reduce all efforts to create a garden and flower beds to no.

Of course, it is possible to install several sprinklers in different parts of the garden and garden, however, up to a full system of watering the garden, these installations are quite far away. Designing any system requires a thoughtful approach.

To begin with, the land is divided into a number of sectors, then the sprinklers are selected, which, when combined in one piece, would cover the area intended for irrigation, completely. Well-designed engineering communications and properly selected irrigation systems will help not only to avoid some problems, but also save money and energy.

Of course, you can go and the simplest way, using ordinary watering cans (watering manually). This option is also quite effective. However, even simple irrigation systems of the garden require at least constant monitoring.

Automatic irrigation systems of the garden solve this issue, and not only this one. You will not need to carry heavy hoses, being afraid of hitting and damaging planted shrubs or plants. You will forget about heavy watering cans. Moreover, you will reduce the costs of water and electricity, while improving the quality of irrigation, but your presence on the site is not necessary.

Automatic irrigation systems of the garden independently determine the level of precipitation, turning off if necessary watering, because they work from sensors that fix the humidity. As a simplified version, it is possible to consider semi-automatic systems programmed for a one-hour mode. In this case, watering will be turned on at a certain (fixed) time.

What are the automatic irrigation systems for the garden?

These devices include the following components:

1. Control panel, which can be called the "brain" of the system. The function of the remote control is observance of the set parameters (the installed program). He, reading the weather station data, turns off the system if it starts to rain, and turns it on when the humidity drops. Professional console can be programmed for all 365 days, which is especially important for those whose business is connected with greenhouses.

2. Solenoid valves. These are original cranes to which pipes are brought. They work in conjunction with the console, giving signals for opening and closing. The flow of water is through these valves.

3. Watering heads, called still sprinklers, carrying out watering. Mounted underground. The pressure exerted in the system pushes the stocks. The nozzles can be raised up to 30 cm. The heads can be rotary (circular rotation) with an average irrigation radius of 11 m and fan (static, umbrella, spray), whose irrigation radius averages 5 m. The length of the jet can be adjusted. Watering heads are equipped with nozzles (nozzles), allowing to conduct long-distance watering, radical irrigation, gentle watering.

4. Pipes (usually polyvinylchloride and polyethylene, of various diameters). Burrow into the ground. For the winter they are blown by a compressor.

5. Pumping station. He lifts water from the well. It is put in the absence of centralized water supply.

The drip irrigation system of the garden is considered the most perfect and effective. This method allows you to feed water directly to the roots of plants. In addition to saving water and reducing the cost of maintaining the land in a clean state (without weeds), it becomes possible to introduce mineral soluble fertilizers. With poorly dissolving granules, it is possible to block the droppers.

The components of such a system include: a water source, a pump station, a filter, a controller, a pressure regulator; A main pipeline with divergent pipelines extending from it and tubes with emitters.

Presented systems with proper installation and operation can be used for dozens of years.
