What materials do we use?

Top quality UV stabilised LDPE (Low Density Poly Ethylene) piping in 25mm and 32mm (lifespan 30-50 years in ground), Rigid PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) piping in 25mm (lifespan 30-50 years in ground), Hunter and Rainbird gear drive, static pop up sprinklers and MP rotators. Hunter and Rainbird computerised controllers with a two year replacement warranty. Units are weatherproof and lockable (lids must remain shut closed at all times when not programming or using). Weathermatic professional series solenoid valves, with manual override feature, allowing manual operation of system during power failures.

How much water is it going to use?

An average domestic system, if managed responsibly, will NOT drive water bills into excess territory. This of course also depends on the number of people in the household and whether you have a swimming pool, etc. Water is very reasonably priced at under 70 cents per 1000 litres and is included in your rates. In most cases, it does not cost you extra to maintain a fresh, green garden and lawn. You have a yearly allowance of over 720,000 litres per household under the standard inclusive water and rates package in Townsville.

How long does it take to install a new system?

On average between 1-3 days, depending on size and detail. Weather is at times a factor, as we don’t trench during heavy rain events to minimise bogging damage to your property.

Almost all systems are plumbed in copper piping to the water main near the water meter. We supply and fit a check valve (non-return valve) and shut off valve as per council specs. This service is included in our quotation.

Do we repair existing systems?

Yes, all types of repairs undertaken—rentals and body corporate are our specialty. We provide FREE QUOTES and prompt, cost-efficient services.
