GOLF IRRIGATION NEWS
IRRIGATION LONG RANGE PLANNING
 
Is your system over 25 years old? Is there a large irrigation system upgrade or pump station renovation in your future? Are you unsure of the preparation steps you should be doing to "move the ball forward"? We can be of help to you and your facility's leadership. We have developed and refined some effective tools to aid in the planning process. Please feel free to schedule a one-hour consultation with your Territory Manager to review industry trends and updates on best practices that will give you the confidence and direction to make your facility excel. This is NOT a "sales" or "product pitch" but rather focuses solely on the long-range planning process and options to consider.
 
Please give your Territory Manager a call to schedule a consultation meeting.

WE STOCK USED CONTROLLERS AND SPRINKLERS

For a budget friendly option, consider used controllers and sprinklers. With recent projects, we have been fortunate to buy back sprinklers and controllers.  Purchase complete heads or controllers for spare parts, or to swap out for something better than you have now.  Contact your TM or Doug Ballew for availability and price
