Most sprinkler performance problems are based in hydraulic causes. 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.

Instructor: Keith Schweiger Knowing how much rainfall was received over an irrigated lawn can be a critical component to increasing the efficiency and conservation of irrigation water. Determining what rainfall data is reliable and relevant for a specific site has always hampered its effective use in managing the irrigation system. Whether the rainfall data comes from the internet, weather stations, or tipping rain bucket devices, the water manager must know it is accurate to apply it to an entire site. This course discusses real examples and shares some practical experience of using rainfall data to help the stakeholders of a property choose the solution that best fits the site’s management requirements.

Instructor: Don Franklin Protecting irrigation electronics from the ravages of electrical surges and lightning is essential for the modern, sophisticated controllers, sensors, and other irrigation equipment. Understanding the science of creating an adequate grounding circuit is at the heart of creating the proper level of protection. This course covers National Electrical Code grounding for public safety and equipment grounding for irrigation controllers and booster pumps.  In it, we will discuss some misconceptions regarding lightening, electrical behavior, proper ground rod and ground plate installation, and minimizing equipment damage.

Instructor: Scott Knowles Comprehensive cashflow management is difficult for small fast-moving companies. Unless absolutely necessary it’s not worth the cost and time for most Green Industry businesses. However, all business owners/operators must have an eye on their cash position so the company can function smoothly. Using the Current Ratio is easily utilized to gauge your cash position, is fairly easy to calculate, will tell you where your cash situation is now, and give you benchmarks to strive for in the future. This course will help a business owner define the Current Ratio and what the numbers tell you. The course will also explore tactics to improve your ratio and avoid cash-traps.

Instructor:  Michael Igo The risks involved with managing irrigation water requires must be assessed and planned for just like mitigating any other operational risks. This session will present and compare an insurance model of managing risk with our methods of allocating and managing irrigation water for the landscape. This is a high-level presentation that will develop a better understanding for irrigation professionals on managing water resources.

Instructor: Kurt Thompson This advanced 1-hour interactive online discussion takes the irrigation designer through the cause and effect of the velocity of the water in the pipe and valve sizing in terms of the cyclical forces that affect the operational costs and sprinkler performance. In this course we will:

• Use the calculated worst-case surge pressure in a mainline to determine the specific velocity in a mainline to control mainline surges.
• Select the pipe size, valve size, and other components to minimize pressure surges in mainline pipes.

Who should attend?  Any experienced irrigation designer who deals with irrigation systems that:

• The design requires long lengths of 2-inch mainline or larger.
• Wants to design in hydraulic conditions to minimize the cyclical forces that cause high maintenance costs.
• Need to be designed to maximize the life of the piping system.

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.
