A well-kept front lawn creates a beautiful façade for a house. A clean patch of green lined with colorful Petunia, Candytufts or daylilies looks so beautiful. However resplendent the flowers might be, set against a dull and dry lawn they all will look faded and bleak. It is this imperative that you need to pay attention to watering of the lawn to keep it verdant and lush. Watering with a garden hose might be a basic option but for long-term sustenance it is a bad idea. What you need is an automatic sprinkler system that can work at the press of a button. There are many reputed brands available that you can choose from. The names that are on a top-of-the-mind are Toro and Rainbird. Consult with the sprinkler contractor and buy a brand that gives you the best convenience.

Before installing a Rainbird you must take your time to explore the area of your lawn and how to make it alive with this sprinkler system. By adding this equipment your garden will look marvelous and you can maintain your lawn easily. A sprinkler from the brand Toro ensures that there is optimum use of water. In fact, a properly designed irrigation system uses the exact quantity of water needed for your landscape and actually saves you water.

A major advantage of Rainbird sprinkler is the “rain shut off sensor”. In case it rains then the sprinkler automatically will shut down since watering is not required. Now, that is a smart device we are talking about. You can choose between rotating sprinklers or fixed ones and Toro has it all. The sprinklers have Matched Precipitation Rate or MPR nozzles that ensure uniform distribution, increases absorption and lowers water run-off. The fixed sprinklers have adjustable nozzles that can be set at 450 to 2700 angles. These sprinklers discharge a soft spray of water that does not damage the tender shoots or the saplings you have recently planted.

When you plan to install a sprinkler system, the contractors will carefully survey your garden to assess the watering needs of different corners of your greens. Accordingly they will specify the type of pump required, the number of sprinklers to be set up and the length of underground pipes required. Remember to source all equipments from a single company. So, if it is a Rainbird sprinkler then the other accessories should also be of the same make. Toro products can be bought online along with all spare parts. That makes sourcing a pretty easy task.

Keep the blueprint of your house layout handy so that the utility lines are not compromised with while placing the underground pipes. The contractor you choose will first design a layout and once you give the nod will start work. Rainbird sprinklers have timers that can be set to turn on the sprinkler system at a specified schedule. These are simple to use and easy to program. Installing a system from a reputed brand like Toro saves you from many worries on long term performance. Always go for branded sprinkler system as they pay you back better. The happy blooms and the lushness of your green lawn are proof enough.

Invest in reputed brands like Toro when buying a sprinkler system for your garden. A Rainbird sprinkler can efficiently water your lawn and save you time and money.
