Our sprinkler and irrigation Omaha experts do a complete audit of your sprinkler system. Our auditors collect data to verify your sprinkler system is working properly as well as to find any opportunity to improve water conservation. Sprinkler and Irrigation Services works with hundreds of commercial properties with complex irrigation systems. There is usually always a sprinkler head to adjust, and a controller that can be modified to save water. There is a huge return on investment for monitoring your irrigation system correctly: overwatering could cost you hundreds of dollars per year per zone, and valuable plants that die due to underwatering could cost the same amount or more to replace.

Our experts have years of experience in all aspects of the irrigation industry (specification, design, installation, service, & management) that enable us to quickly define all operational issues with your system. Our experts will Analyze water requirements and irrigation use in the context of each site’s unique conditions. We will develop a detailed irrigation schedule based on water requirements, soil conditions, slope, and availability. We also will make maintenance recommendations to keep the irrigation system working reliably and cost-effectively.

Keep your property looking beautiful during the spring and summer months with Sprinkler Irrigation Services in Omaha.

One of our Sprinkler experts will visit your home at the start of the season and put your system through a complete test. From the controller to the last sprinkler head, they will ensure everything is in top working order and leave your system ready to perform for the season. A residential start-up package includes travel time to your site and inspecting the irrigation system for damaged or broken components. The technician will run through your system using a checklist. We re-program the controller, check the rain sensor, adjust sprinkler nozzles, and check for leaks. Once we have identified any problems, we will discuss the issues with you and make the necessary repairs.
We take your sprinkler system turn-on seriously. Your system is a complex series of plumbing and electrical parts that require maintenance. We will slowly turn on the main sprinkler valve and gently let water fill in the sprinkler pipe and manifold. Once the system is filled, we visually use testing tools to check:

• Lateral Pipes: kinetic pressure checks.
• Sprinkler Heads: rotation, GPM, matched precipitation…
• Sprinkler Controller: We will troubleshoot your controller and program your watering schedule. If your controller is more than ten years old, we can update it to a more efficient model, or even a WiFi model.
• Rain Sensor: We will make sure your rain sensor is working properly. Rain sensors are sensitive instruments and should be changed every five to ten years.
• System Wiring: Inspect field wiring between controller and zone valves. The freeze/thaw action of the ground, tree roots, and rodents can damage the irrigation controller wire. At the same time, we will check all wire splices.
  Backflow Device: Visually examine the backflow device and test. If your backflow device is ten years old or older, consider replacing it.
• Landscape Coverage: Finally, check the sprinkler system for coverage of your landscape. As landscapes mature sprinkler heads may need to be moved, added, or shut off. The nozzles in the sprinkler head also may need to be modified.

You should schedule your sprinkler system start-up before you actually need it. This means we want to come in March, April, and May. We will take care of repairs, replacements, and adjustments so that you can turn your controller from “off” to “run” when the time arrives, your system will be ready to efficiently bring on the water!

Any number of issues can cause damage to your lawn throughout the season. Anything from vandalism to general wear and tear can cause sprinklers to stop working. As temperatures rise, so do the water requirements of our plants and lawn. These are the reasons why Mid-season visits are important.

As part of our great service we will send one of our technicians out to do a quick check up. Our technician will do a quick system check and adjust your watering schedule. Do not miss this opportunity as it is a highly important step in the maintenance cycle of your Irrigation system and your landscape. Increase Start times… not Run times.

Your irrigation design is the foundation for a well-constructed and long-lasting sprinkler system. A great design takes into consideration soil, plant material, drainage and many others factors that are not part of the layout and material.

Design Steps… Before the first shovel penetrates the ground, Sprinkler and Irrigation Services will assess your landscape and determine the following:

• What is the size of the property?
• Soil Type: Clay vs. loam vs. sand
• Flat terrain vs. hills and slopes
• Sunny areas vs. shady areas
• Type of landscape design and the location of existing trees, shrubs, planting beds, and turf
  Water requirements of all the different plants
• Location and type of driveways, walkways, and patios
• The source of water, point of connection, water pressure, and volume
• Type of backflow device required
• Location of all sprinkler heads, drip irrigation, pipe, valves, wiring, controller, and point of connection
• Promote a healthy, thriving landscape

We “flag the yard,” which means you will see where every head in the yard will be going. Every sprinkler system is custom designed to meet the unique needs of the customers’ yard.

We offer complete design services for your residential or commercial property. We focus on providing you with a system that will differentiate between the many components of your landscape. The true cost of your irrigation system is not the cost of installation but rather the cost to operate the system. Therefore, the initial design must be based on the actual multiple demands for water that exist in any landscape. This will ensure that you are not overwatering one area to apply the correct amount of water to another. We are fortunate enough to have one of Nebraska’s very few contractors with a CID (certified Irrigation Designer) from the Irrigation Association. CIDs establish specifications and design drawings for landscape irrigation projects. They also evaluate site conditions and determine water availability and use requirements, select the most effective irrigation equipment, methods, and materials for the application. They are Certified to develop efficient and cost-effective irrigation designs that meet the plant’s watering requirements, prepare comprehensive plans and specifications that include construction details, equipment, or materials, as well as appropriate irrigation schedules.

Drip watering for your container plants, roses and seasonal color can be added to your existing sprinkler system. During hot weather, potted plants require constant care. And the traditional method of hose watering often results in “drench and drought” conditions that make for sickly plants.

Our technicians can run small drip tubes to each container or plant location so water is applied each time sprinklers operate. Your plants will benefit from consistent, measured watering, leading to lush growth and beautiful blooms all season long.

Sprinkler and Irrigation Services utilizes a wide variety of equipment to custom design a system to match your requirements. Some of these include:

• Drip emitters
• Micro sprays
• Bubblers
• Techline Tubing

Drip is designed to allow water to be slowly absorbed into the soil, only when needed. Water is distributed to the plant only. This cuts down on the growth of weeds and eliminates water being wasted. Typically, Drip Irrigation will release ½ gallon per hour versus 2 gallon per minute for sprinkler heads. There is little to no loss to evaporation, or run-off since the water is delivered directly to the roots slowly.

Benefits:

• Faster growth, healthier plants, and fewer pests
• Minimize and reduce soil erosion on slope areas
• Plants can grow as needed, conventional spray systems need to be modified
• Designed especially for pots, containers, raised beds, and window boxes
• Avoid randomly watering your plants and the weeds
• Target where, when, and how often you water your plants

A warranty is only as good as the company that provides it. Here, a customer’s phone call is answered, appointments are scheduled, and problems repaired. Picture this; It is 100 degrees and has been windy for 3 days. You call for service, on a head that was dug up by your dog. Which would you prefer…a couple of weeks for an appointment or a couple of days?? Our Warranty: Sprinkler and Irrigation Services LLC (SIS) warranties Lifetime on poly pipe, Hunter materials for a period of 4 years and workmanship for a period of 2 years. SIS uses Hunter products based on their design and proven reliability. The Hunter rotor has not been significantly changed in design for over 35 years. This is because it works.

Diagnosing and troubleshooting a sprinkler system can be simple and easy to find and fix, but also can be very complex and time consuming as in tracking and finding a short in a field wire.

In addition to finding and repairing the obvious broken pipes and missing sprinkler heads it is also important to check for:

• Sprinkler head replacement
• Electrical troubleshooting
• Controller programming
• Cleaning and flushing a solenoid valve
• Clogged sprinkler nozzles
• Out of adjustment sprinkler heads
• Blocked sprinkler heads from overgrown vegetation
• New landscaping coverage

Quarterly checks can also prevent issues including malfunctions and leaks. Sprinkler and Irrigation Services consultants can also identify areas that could save you water and energy, which can save you money in the long run.

Sprinkler and Irrigation Services is the only Omaha-based company that conducts audit checks to ensure the current system works properly saving time and money. Sprinkler system audit check includes:

• Zone Performance
• Spray Patterns
• Valve Check
• Sensor Check

Our consultants will work with you to develop a customized maintenance plan that fits your needs.
