How much does an irrigation system cost?
For a complete system, our irrigation installation start at $1,100 to $1,350.00 per zone. The number of gallons per minute that you have at home or from the street determines the irrigation zones. It is difficult to estimate how many zones you will need, but for the typical Nanaimo, BC home, we advise having at least four zones in the front yard and three in the backyard. This also depends on how intricate your outdoor layout is.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should i turn my irrigation on?
The exact date will depend on the weather, but in Nanaimo, we usually start planning start up service calls for the beginning of April. This does not imply that day will be spent running! All it does is give us a chance to send a irrigation person to thoroughly inspect everything and make any necessary corrections or repairs before the season starts. When it’s spring, just turn your controller “On” after we’ve turned it “Off.”
When should i turn Off my Sprinklers?
Everybody’s garden is unique and requires modification. By late September, if your turf and plants are well-established, we can turn everything off. In the fall, when you plant new grass or plants, we can setup a program to run at the best times and shut off by the end of October. We advise you to turn everything off by the first of November.
How many sprinkler heads are there in a zone?
The pressure (PSI) and velocity (GPM) that are available on the property are used to determine each unit in the zones surrounding your outdoor space. The shape of your yard will also be impacted by the type of heads you use.
Are Wi-Fi and Smart Controllers available?
Indeed. These are helpful to many customers because they allow them to control everything from a distance. They are also well-liked for their capacity to conserve water, system notifications, and adaptations made in response to local weather forecasts.
These can be added to already-existing setups or during the installation process.
Which season is ideal for installing an irrigation system?
As long as there is air above freezing and the ground surrounding the garden is not frozen, we can provide irrigation most of the year round. The sprinklers should ideally be installed before a new lawn is installed.
Can i run my irrigation on a well supply?
Indeed. It would be necessary to ascertain whether the irrigation system can be operated with just the well’s primary supply. Debris and iron content are additional variables to take into account; these would call for filtration or a chemical solution.
How long does it take to build new irrigation sprinkler zones for my home?
While every installation is unique and will depend on the size and complexity of the job, our service person typically allots 5-8 days for a typical garden-sized install.
I see that the heads are leaking, but everything else is off. How should I proceed?
Remaining liquid in the lines will exit at the lowest point, depending on the land’s contour. It might be necessary to flush the valve if the leak persists in the head even after a few hours. For services appointment scheduling, give our irrigation repair service team a call.
When is it appropriate to blow out sprinkler systems?
We advised having everything blown out in Nanaimo in October, or as soon as the weather forecast called for temperatures below zero.
The timing of blowout is dependent upon the area in which you reside. Blowout can start in some areas as early as August and last until the beginning of December because ground temperatures drop more slowly than air temperatures.
No matter where you live, in order to prevent damage to your irrigation sprinklers and valves, it’s critical to have your system winterized before the temperatures regularly drop below 32° F.
