Lawn Sprinkler Systems

Residential/Commercial

Design Objective

To meet/exceed all state & local code requirements. In addition, utilize your investment to achieve the “BEST VALUE” for your dollars spent. FISCHER IRRIGATION is a Hunter “GOLD Preferred Contractor” with over 20 years of experience designing and installing Sprinkler Systems.

Key Design Features

• Strict tolerance to head spacing, this ensures better coverage & a higher precipitation rate.
• Use of HUNTER flow control valves. This enables proper nozzle pressure which, decreases water loss due to evaporation and ensures proper coverage.
• Zoning based on; exposure, soil, and plant type, to eliminate “feast famine syndrome.”
• We use 4”, 6” and 12” pop ups, to eliminate risers, (“sticks with nozzles), for aesthetic purposes when system is not running and to maintain coverage after plant growth occurs.
• Infield Valve wiring is all 16 gauge, solid copper, UF rated, either buried or in conduit (NO EXPOSED WIRE).
• Sod Cutting and additional time and care in the final cleanup. Use of surfactant on all trenches and disturbed grass to minimize shock and expedite recovery of grass.
• Main line Sch 40 PVC.
• 8”-12” main trench depth.
• Rotors installed on square spacing (head to head) app. .6 in/hr precipitation rate.
• Sprays installed on square spacing (head to head) or, triangular spacing (distance shortened to .86 Radius) appx. 1.5 + in/hr precipitation rate.

Components

• We used premium components with advanced features.
• Hunter Pro Series Sprays w/heavy duty case, interchangeable nozzles and replaceable seal.
