Instructor: Ted Moriarty A successful installation or renovation project depends on determining the best and most feasible course of action to take. This requires making decisions in the field regarding three key elements – sprinkler pressure, spacing, and flow based on the manufacturer’s specifications. This leads to good distribution uniformity and therefore conserving water while keeping the plants healthy. This class will address the fundamental hydraulic principles supporting these three important elements, with an emphasis on spacing and nozzling. Part 1 of the class will focus on choosing the proper nozzles and spacing given existing site conditions that may require “out of the box” solutions. Part 2 will address difficult areas which need to be irrigated with the goal mitigating water waste, such as overspray. New techniques using different approaches for mixing and matching different irrigation equipment will be covered.
