There are several types of irrigation systems designed for both residential and commercial properties, each suited to different landscape needs and water efficiency goals:
1. Sprinkler Systems
- Fixed (Pop-Up) Sprays: Common for residential lawns, these pop up when the system is running and retract when off.
- Rotary Sprinklers: Best for larger commercial areas like golf courses or athletic fields, they cover a wide area by rotating and spraying water in a circular motion.
2. Drip Irrigation Systems
- Surface Drip Systems: Tubes with emitters sit on the ground and slowly release water directly at the plant base — ideal for gardens and flower beds.
- Subsurface Drip Systems: Tubes are buried below ground, perfect for minimizing water loss through evaporation and runoff, often used for both residential and commercial landscapes.
3. Soaker Hose Systems
Porous hoses that slowly seep water along their length, great for residential gardens and plant beds, providing deep, even watering.
4. Micro-Irrigation Systems
A low-pressure system that uses small sprayers, misters, and drip lines — perfect for targeting individual plants in gardens, greenhouses, and landscaped commercial areas.
5. Rotary Nozzle Systems
High-efficiency sprinkler heads that rotate streams of water, reducing runoff and improving coverage for both residential lawns and larger commercial spaces.
7. Flood (Surface) Irrigation (Commercial)
Water flows over the ground in designated channels, used for large agricultural or commercial fields where precision watering isn’t as critical.
8. Smart Irrigation Systems
Integrated with Wi-Fi and weather sensors, these systems adjust watering schedules based on real-time weather, soil moisture, and temperature — perfect for both residential and commercial properties focused on water conservation.
