Frequent travellers will love the convenience and versatility of an underground sprinkler system. Besides never having to drag the garden hose around the yard again and worry about leaving it on, watering your lawn while on vacation is virtually maintenance free.

Each sprinkler system is equipped with a automatic feature which is not only great for families who travel on a regular basis, but also for busy working professionals or couples on the go. A timing and scheduling feature is essentially built into the control panel, where the homeowner sets the day of the week and time of day they want the lawn to be watered. Although the lawn timer can be set at the homeowner's convenience, it's recommended to water your grass before the heat of the day hits, which tends to be between the hours of 6 and 10 a.m. This makes lawn care Calgary a snap, since it's essentially an entirely hands free system.

Besides the self-serve watering system, a sprinkler system actually saves more water then it wastes, which is a huge plus to those homeowners who hate to waste water. Unlike a manual sprinkler, which you move around your yard, a built-in irrigation system is installed to ensure only vegetation receives watering and not parked cars, streets or sidewalks.

Another fantastic component that only an underground sprinkler can provide is a low-flow drip system. This system is utilized on vegetation that needs a little extra care, but not as much water as an irrigation system may provide. Instead of soaking the trees, flowers and bushes with the sprinkler, the low-flow drip, installed at the base of the plants, provides a slow watering system, thus reducing water waste and run-off.

When shopping the sprinkler market for a Calgary lawn care services professional, always start by asking those in your community, including relatives and friends, if they have used someone they would happily recommend to you. Whether they would recommend them or not, it's a good starting point to get an idea about their overall experience with a sprinkler installer. If you don't know anyone who has used a sprinkler specialist before, check out your local Yellow Pages or Internet to find sprinkler fitters in your area.

Never hire a contractor that doesn't hold a professional business license, carry up-to-date insurance and is not knowledgeable in his or her trade. In order to get the best, you have to hire the best right from the start. It's also recommended that you make sure the contractor in question provides a guarantee on their product and service with at least a one-year warranty.

Whether you are looking for less yard work and more time with your family, or you just feel a sprinkler is your best option to help take care of your lawn care Calgary, purchasing an irrigation system is your best bet.
