Before an installation we need to know your water source and pressure, since a well and a town line behave very differently and the design depends on gallons per minute. We'll locate the utilities, check what your town requires for permitting and backflow testing, and mark out the zones with you so you know where the heads will land. Plan on the yard looking rough for a few days: the pipe pulling leaves narrow slits in the turf that close up within two or three weeks, and any trenched areas get raked and seeded. You'll need an outdoor water tap or basement access for the tie-in, and power near the controller location. When the system is running we'll walk every zone with you, show you how to adjust run times, and explain the winterization schedule so you know what has to happen each fall.
