The Advantages and Benefits of Drip Irrigation:
"Combined with 30 years of industry experience, TVP represents a large selection of professional irrigation manufacturers to supply ALL your installation needs.

Drip Irrigation:
The most efficient method to irrigate today is drip irrigation. This method of irrigation allows for water to be applied directly to the roots of the plants, maintaining optimum moisture levels in the soil and reducing water loss to evaporation and wind. With this ideal application of water, you will yield healthy, stress free plants.
Drip irrigation is well trusted and used extensively in afgriculture, commercial landscapes and residential gardens and has maintined it popularity because it provides a solution to water conservation problems.

What you need to know:
Whether it's a lawn or landscape area, proper irrigation water management is essential to promote a healthy landscape while maximizing existing water resource use. Until a drought occurs, the evidence of improperly designed or maintained irrigation systems usually goes unnoticed. It's not until the water supply is low or water restrictions are enforced that we realize that many of our irrigation systems are extremely inefficient. These problems can stem from a number of sources, including poorly designed and installed irrigation systems, lack of appropriate maintenance, and improper placement of sprinkler heads that do not consider runoff potential, terrain difficulty, and windy sites . As long as water remains relatively inexpensive, irrigation will remain a low priority, resulting in over irrigation. In todays market, drip irrigation has made great strides in becoming recognized as a water management tool, helping architects, contractors and users to customize their irrigation system to meet specific needs. Drip Irrigation is the slow application of water directly to the plants root zone. Maintaining an optimum moisture level in the soil at all times results in less water lost to the sun and the wind. No water is wasted on non-growth areas, and the root zone is maintained at its ideal moisture level, combining the proper balance of water and air for a very efficient irrigation system.

Advantages and Benefits:

Water Efficiency:

By applying water only where it is needed, with less runoff, less deep percolation, and less evaporation from leaves and soil, the uniform application of water use in drip irrigation systems can achieve high water efficiency.
Reduced Pest Problems and Weed Growth: Watering only the roots of your plants with drip irrigation cuts down on water-borne pests and fungal diseases that spread by water movement, as well as the germination of weeds in the area between your plants.

Reclaimed Water:

Using drip irrigation below ground eliminates the potential risk of disease caused by bacteria and viruses in reclaimed water.

Versatility:

Low volume irrigation systems are designed for placement in both new and existing landscape areas, and are ideal for installation on difficult terrain such as on slopes, in oddly shaped areas, and on windy sites.

Root Zone:

One of the most important aspects of drip irrigation is the fact that, in many instances, a totally new and more favorable root zone environment is created and a relatively constant soil moisture level is maintained. This fact has important implications because it bears upon questions of plant water requirements, tolerance and control of disease.
