SUMMARY:Irrigation System Renovation Training
DESCRIPTION:This training event qualifies for 8 NJ Water Conservation CEC’s.\nToday’s landscape irrigation industry is changing. There are less new installations and many more repairs. Why?

There are less new installations and many more repairs.  Why?  The industry is maturing\, which presents an incredible opportunity for the irrigation contractor to embrace.  Many systems are 10\, 20\, 30\, 40 years or older.  We need to increase our comfort level in recommending upgrades for older systems instead of selling the customer short with temporary fixes.  Plus\, with so much new technology that helps to better manage the water we have for landscape irrigation\, this training will pay for itself in your first renovation. \nChoose the track that suits your training needs best: \nManagement track \n\nExplore models for landscape water management businesses.\nManage the process from evaluations to ongoing renovations and upgrades.\nReview evaluation tools.\nUse new remote accessible “wifi” controllers in your business.\nCreate incentives for techs and improve their sales training.\n\nTechnician track \n\nRecognize what needs to be upgraded and renovated with the hands-on irrigation system renovation.\nCollect info on a system evaluation.\nImprove sales skills to sell the work.\nUnderstand how to improve the water distribution.\nLearn how to rebuild a valve.\nInstall and program new Wi-Fi/accessible controllers.\n\nDate: Thursday\, November 7th\, 8 am-4 pm\nRain Date: Friday\, November 8th\, 8 am-4 pm\nLocation: Framingham State University\nParking: 550 Union Ave\, Framingham MA 01702\nShuttle will pick up here for transportation to site on campus\nCost: $129 per company representative
