Benefits of a Sprinkler System
Kern Turf Supply is Bakersfield’s landscape supply hub, with everything you need to keep your yard or commercial outdoor space looking healthy and beautiful all year long. Part of keeping your space healthy is keeping your grass, trees, and plants hydrated. But with so many things to do and so many places to go, watering the right amounts at the right times can be difficult and inconvenient.
Luckily, a custom sprinkler system can take the difficulty out of water scheduling and consumption, all through an easy-to-use interface. In this blog, we’ll discuss some of the benefits of these systems.
You get to pick where the water goes.
Sprinkler placement is as much of an art as it is a science—and for some people, it can be very, very difficult. We’ve all had moments where our sprinkler placement has neglected oblong corners of our lawn, or when we feel like we’re doing an excellent job watering our sidewalk. No matter which way to slice it, some part of your lawn gets less water than the other parts, and that can lead to discoloration, dryness, and dreaded lawn “bald” spots.
Custom sprinkler systems allow you to design the perfect watering strategy for the shape and size of your lawn, whether it’s square, kidney-shaped, or anything in between. No bald spots, no neglected blades of grass, and no watering the concrete.
You save on your water bill.
Your girlfriend wants to take you to a movie, and it’s going to be a long one: a three and a half hour historical epic, to be exact. However, you forgot to water the lawn earlier in the day, and you need to take care of it as soon as possible. Do you turn the sprinklers on 30 minutes before the movie, only to come back post-movie, four-plus hours later to a flash flood? Or do you skip watering for a day and risk the consequences?
This is a classic watering conundrum, and something that’s easily solved by an automatic sprinkler system. Set specific times for watering, and let your system controller do the rest. With automatic shutdown, your system will prevent flash-flood situations, and you’ll avoid massive water bills that come from leaving the sprinkler systems on and unattended. The perfect amount of water, every single time—that’s the beauty of automatic irrigation systems.
You’re making your home more eco-friendly.
If you’ve read the news, you know there’s not a surplus of water in California. By installing an energy-efficient sprinkler system, you can control the flow of water and use only what you need to keep your outdoor space looking healthy. That helps your yard and the community.
You add value to your home.
Most people enjoy having a lawn, but they don’t enjoy watering it—which is why adding a custom sprinkler system to your yard adds value to your home. Potential homebuyers will be impressed with the luxury home add-on, and the low-maintenance nature of the sprinkler system will be very appealing. Plus, adding a custom sprinkler system will help you keep your outdoor spaces beautiful for when potential homebuyers come to visit. Curb appeal is worth its weight in gold. By keeping your plants and lawn lush and healthy, you’ll have a lush and healthy bank account when closing time comes around.
