Lawn Sprinkler Repair Minimized By New smart Technologye Here!

Many of new products from the leading lawn sprinkler equipment manufacturers in 2010

focus on water conversation, and reducing the cost of operations of a lawn sprinkler / lawn irrigation system. Significant advances in technology are now available. Some of the new innovations include wireless communications capabilities between components, and improved sensors for attributes like water, sunshine, and temperature. The increased application of these technologies into a complete smart system can result in improved overall lawn and plant health, all the while conserving the precious resource of water, and as a result, lowering the lawn sprinkler repair costs too.

Some examples of new products available come from Rain Bird and Hunter. Rain Bird has even trademarked the phrase The Intelligent Use of Water to describe their new products. Components available include tools and equipment that can turn ordinary lawn sprinkler system controllers into so-called Smart Controllers. Other components, like the Rain Bird SMRT-Y system, measure the moisture content in the soil in specific areas of the lawn sprinkler system. The controller can then alter the entire water cycle or just shut off specific areas of the lawn sprinkler system where water is not needed. Other smart technology innovations include sunshine, rain and rain/freeze sensors. These sensors and associated enhanced controller modules can sense when nature is providing the needed water free of charge, when the temperature has dropped to a level below the point where watering is effective, or undesirable (freezing lines or frost heave creates additional sprinkler repair bills), or when the sun has been shining and extra cycles might be warranted.

In addition to all the new electronics and sensor technology, the leading manufacturers are also innovating new designs to deliver the water more efficiently. New spray nozzles that deliver the water with more accuracy, and on unique slopes and other landscape conditions. The enhanced technology in the modeling and design of these nozzles allow them to put water exactly where it is intended to go more effectively and efficiently than in the past. Many of these new nozzles can be retrofitted to most existing lawn sprinkler systems and show immediate help in water conservation and lowering overall maintenance costs.

With all these new products available that measure temperature, sunshine, rain, soil moisture, and help to distribute less water more efficiently, home owners and professionals alike can see considerable savings in their water usage for landscape irrigation. In one specific example, a local Canton Michigan Condominium complex who implemented these smart technologies achieved a 40% reduction in their water bill in their first season of implementation.
