Winter is the ideal time to control the various components of the irrigation system. You may have forgotten the obvious, but from my over 20 years worth of experience as a professional gardener in a hot, dry country, many people are likely during the rainy season, only to awaken in a panic at the first sign of hot spring. So, make a commitment on the part of the system 8 weeks or so to go before the start of spring. We see then see what needs to be doneSection by section.
Underground Sprinklers
First, open the tap to see the sprinklers, it does not work properly. U-Bahn or pop-up sprinklers can sometimes fall a bit 'on the ground. The set includes the entire height of the housing, if necessary, although some digging to do. Modern sprinklers are used in small filter housing. Clean each individual. Three minutes of labor per unit of time can save a lot of frustration later, as part of the off-brown grassSummer, due to poor coverage of water. It 'also important to check the condition of the nozzles. They are worn over time and should be every 3-5 years.
Drip Irrigation
Drip irrigation tend to be stuck in time. Turn to see what the water is not emitting. If the dropper into the tube are determined by the manufacturer, place a "button" next to the units plugged dripper. To reduce blocking in the future, it is important to wash the lines of leastonce a year. After turning on the faucet, you simply open the end of the line and let the water flow for about 5 minutes or so. The length of the dripper lines is usually up to 10-15 years ago, when deposits of minerals in water finally make the line no longer works. However, neglecting to wash regularly used the system to significantly reduce their duration. I've seen, dropper block after 3 or 4 years ago, when this task simple routine ignored.
Irrigation Head of Unit
AProfessional irrigation controller is a control or timer, filter and pressure. Needless to say, thoroughly wash the filter. A dirty filter reduces the water flow, reducing pressure in the sprinkler and dripper lines blocks. The operational efficiency of the regulator must be checked. These works are vital to ensure that the drip system is the dynamic pressure is prescribed, for the smallest of 1-2 barUnit. You may need professional help in this, but do not neglect the task because high pressure, the links are gone and even burst. Replace the batteries when needed.
Finally, spray oil on metal parts of the device. What a pain attached, the test, and a matching screw on the wall, only to find the screws are completely rusted! Since a great comedian and writer, once said - "Silly little sense, but it seems to matter!" I wonder if youwho know that it could be.
