Lawn sprinkler systems can help you maintain a healthy lawn. Inground sprinkler systems ensure that an adequate amount of water reaches the grass roots automatically during specific times and days of the week. As a result, inground sprinkler systems can save you the effort and expense of having to replace dead grass patches. Having a lawn sprinkler system can also increase the value of your home should you choose to sell it in the future.

There are a number of different types of lawn sprinkler systems. The most common form of lawn irrigation systems are inground sprinkler systems, which come in a number of variations. There are drip irrigation systems where water tubes with holes are installed under the grass turf. These holes are found within specified length intervals to provide an equal and adequate source of water. The distribution of holes can be concentrated within a certain area, so water can be distributed by dripping it near the plant roots. Drip irrigation systems can reach certain areas of the soil that are not reachable when using a garden hose. It can also reach planters and hanging plants.

A spray irrigation system works by suing sprayers to shoot water over the grass lawn, which pass through long water tubes that are also found just under the turf of your lawn. A central pivot is normally used to hold the sprinklers that rotate water around your lawn. Spray irrigation systems are recommended for lawns that have light soil.

When considering the purchase of inground sprinkler systems make sure that the system that you purchase can meet the water supply needs of the size of garden or lawn that you own. You should also obtain information on the amount of water that these sprinkler systems consume, so that you can compare amongst different brands of sprinkler systems, and compare the most cost effective one. Ease of installation could also be another key factor in the decision of your purchase. Some lawn sprinkler systems only work with certain soil types, so determining the type of soil that your lawn has is also equally important before going ahead with purchasing an inground sprinkler system.
