When hydraulics is ignored, hours are wasted chasing solutions that do not fix the problem, leading to lower profits and unhappy customers. This course uses a simple worksheet to guide the irrigation professional to gather the information about the system with a pump or water meter as the water source. This streamlined method is designed to take minutes and not hours to evaluate the hydraulics to determine where the flow or pressure problems may be.
