Adding more sprinklers or changing sprinkler nozzles can seem like a good solution to fixing dry spots or other coverage issues. But it can make the coverage worse, not better. This course will use real-world situations to show the hydraulic principles of flow and pressure that will give the technician the understanding to make the proper decisions when adding sprinklers or changing nozzles.

Running a small business is hard. Always short-staffed and under-capitalized, business owners juggle a dozen balls every day. Reaching success without sacrificing too much of your personal life means becoming a good business operator. Because most business owners in the Green Industry started as good production or technical people, they struggle with the management of the business.  While professional management can be learned over time, an owner will still need help along the way. No matter how small or large the company, a Board of Advisors will provide powerful guidance to help you maneuver in the game of business. This course will define the role of a Board of Advisors and how to create that board.

Instructor:  Mike Yaruzzi Determining the proper pump goes beyond just the pressure and flow the pump is capable of producing. It must also include many other elements involving the whole irrigation project. This class will take a deep dive into identifying proper point of connection capacity to analyzing various friction losses that occur within the hydraulic network of the irrigation system.

Instructor:  Mike Yaruzzi Effectively and efficiently diagnosing a centrifugal pump is good for the client as well as the contractor’s business. In many cases, the pump is just replaced without knowing the cause of the problem or failure. Unfortunately, the pump was not the right one for the system and the new pump just fails again. This class will offer advanced pump troubleshooting skills for the irrigation technician to efficiently and effectively identify, and repair common issues associated with centrifugal pump failure.
