How to make an irrigation system for the garden


 


Having a beautiful garden, green and flowery, is certainly a great satisfaction, but it also requires a great deal of time to take care of it. Pruning and re-sowing, just to give a couple of examples, cannot be avoided but, at most, delegated to a trusted professional gardener. On the other hand, with regard to watering, we can provide and implement irrigation work in Dubai for the garden, which is practical and, at the same time, efficient.


Types of irrigation systems


First, we need to assess what type of irrigation system is best suited to our garden. The three main types are:


drip, also called "micro-irrigation"

above ground, with exposed pipes

underground, where a system of underground pipes is foreseen, with retractable sprinklers.

Underground irrigation system

In this section we will deal with seeing, in broad terms, how an underground irrigation system is created, since it is a system that can fit any type of garden, whether small or large. In addition, an underground system is the one that is best suited to be automated, so garden irrigation can be scheduled, even when we are not at home.


Preventive evaluations


The first step to take is to evaluate the pressure and flow rate of the water; the choice of pipes that we will use to build the system will depend on this. To measure the pressure, you will need a pressure gauge, while, for the flow rate, it will be enough to time how long it takes to fill a bucket.


Design


For the design, however, it will be necessary to reproduce your garden to scale; the drawing must indicate any obstacles, as well as where the plants to be watered are positioned. If the garden is large, it will be necessary to divide it into several areas or portions; consider that, in each portion, no more than 5/6 sprinklers should be positioned. We will then determine where to pass the pipes and, therefore, where to make the grooves in the ground. The grooves should not be large, but a depth of at least 20cm is recommended. Once the tracks have been made, the polyethylene pipes can be laid, as well as the sprinklers. It is very important, before closing the traces, to verify that the system works, in all its parts.


Sprinklers


To understand how an irrigation system for the garden is made, let's now see the sprinklers, an integral part of every type of irrigation system. The market now offers a very wide choice in this regard and, consequently, a solution suitable for any type of plant and garden. The most "classic" sprinklers are the static ones which, however, generally have a range not exceeding 5m; they are therefore recommended for small gardens. Their operation is quite simple: they deliver water "like an umbrella" and can be adjusted with a rain or nebulized jet. Dynamic sprinklers, on the other hand, are more efficient, especially if the garden is large; their rotating and adjustable jet can reach a distance of 30 meters.


Green bonus


Deductions are due to those who carry out garden maintenance services in dubai , both in private homes and in condominiums; they therefore amount to 36%, up to a maximum cost of € 5,000 for each housing unit.
