1. Will the system be custom fitted to my property?
Your design will take into account such factors as changes in terrain elevation, sunny and shaded areas, and landscape planting in place or planned. These factors are important in determining sprinkler placement, zoning, your watering schedule and the length of watering times.

2. Will your design and equipment help me save water?
Your system will use the most efficiently designed sprinkler nozzling available. Your watering schedule will also be planned to minimize waste caused by runoff, wind drift, and evaporation.

3. What do you do to avoid damaging existing landscaping and turf?
We design a system that does not require moving existing plants or plantings. This may require some hand excavation. The piping material will be "pulled" into the ground with a vibrating plow that minimizes damage to the turf. In most cases, visible evidence that your system was installed will not be apparent after a period of two weeks.

4. Will I be able to comply with water rationing regulations if necessary?
During water shortages you may be restricted to watering on certain days and during low-demand hours - usually at night. An automatic sprinkler systems allows you tremendous flexibility to comply with watering restrictions. In addition you will save your community water through the efficient application of water your system will provide.

Yes. The price we quote you will be for the entire system. We will inform you what is required by your city to install your system and work with you to make your installation as convenient as possible for you.

6. Isn't there a possibility of freeze damage to my system?
Your system will need to be blown out with compressed air each year to winterize the system from freezing and damaging your pipe and sprinkler heads. As part of your installation package, All American Turf Beauty, Inc. will provide the first winterization "blowout" and spring start up at no extra charge to you.
