A sprinkler system is a complex network of pipes, valves, electrical connections and sprinkler heads. Because it serves as the circulation system for your yard, the design and installation of your sprinkler system are critical to its success. It is a complicated process requiring a host of equipment, as well as a background in landscape design and hydraulics. This is why it's so important to hire a professional contractor to design and install your system.
We understand that the decision of whom to hire could be a difficult one. To make your decision easier, we have compiled 10 reasons why you should choose Paradise Restored for your irrigation needs.
Reason #1. We save you money! Paradise Restored specializes in installing irrigation systems that save our clients money. Our team of irrigation specialists has extensive experience and has been trained to be efficient in the installation process. Unlike other companies that might have a haphazard approach once the work begins, our team of irrigation specialists work from a proven systemized checklist. This systemized approach to installing sprinkler systems ensures that nothing is missed. It also saves time as the entire project has been thought thru before the crew begins. This in turn saves our clients money. We don't have to figure in down time while the crew makes a run for parts because they forgot something. We also continue saving you money, months after we've completed the job. We do this by using the latest technology from trusted irrigation suppliers to minimize water waste, thus decreasing the cost to run your system. This technology is talked about in reason number three.
Reason #2. We save water! A properly designed and installed landscape irrigation system could save at least 50% of the irrigation water we see running down the streets and sidewalks of our city. Paradise Restored has made it our mission to help conserve our community's water. We have a thorough understanding of the design elements that are involved in any irrigation system. We employ the concept of hydraulic design, or how water moves through your irrigation pipes. A poor hydraulic design will waste water and money. As we develop the hydraulic design of your customized irrigation system, we will consider things that many other companies often overlook. Soil type, plant material, precipitation rate, and the importance of the spacing of sprinkler heads are all factor into your design. Paradise Restored is always looking for ways to increase our already extensive education on sprinkler system design and installation as well as water conservation. Our clients can be sure that when they hire us, they will not only get a professionally designed and operating system, but they can be confident that they are conserving one of earth's most valuable resources.
Reason #3. Water efficient technology! Paradise Restored is at the forefront of water efficient technology. These are some products we use to ensure your landscape is being watered most efficiently.
Product 1. ESP-SMT Smart Irrigation Control System:
The proven accuracy of weather-based scheduling makes the ESP-SMT Rain Bird weather-based control simple and affordable for homeowners like you. By self-adjusting to your landscape's changing water needs, it eliminates the programming errors and quess work of a time-based system.
Zone-specific water calculations: Different plants have different watering requirements. That's why the ESP-SMT customizes each zone's irrigation schedule. It factors in location, soil type, landscape slope, plant type/density, sun exposure, sprinkler type and root-depth requirements. Based on this zone-specific data, ESP-SMT controller optimizes the irrigation schedule to promote lush, healthy plant material in each part of your yard, while substantially reducing water waste and runoff.
Instant rainfall shut-off and useable measurement: A smart controller should be smart enough to account for rainfall, right? Not always, in fact, most smart controllers simply suspend irrigation when it rains without accurately measuring rainfall. By comparison, the ESP-SMT not only suspends irrigation, it measures instantaneous rainfall amounts, determines the effective rainfall and calculates exactly how much to adjust your watering schedule to prevent over-watering or under-watering.
Product 2. Pressure Regulating Heads:
These heads use a patented pressure regulator built into the stem. They maintain a constant outlet pressure at 30 PSI. Spray heads and nozzles perform best at 30 PSI. This ensures maximum spray head and nozzle performance, even with varying inlet pressures. This head also restricts water loss by up to 70% if the nozzle is removed or damaged. This, of course, reduces the possibility of accidents and property damage. The technology of these heads ends misting and fogging caused by high pressure, thus preventing water waste.
Product 3. Nozzles:
Rotary Nozzles: These help reduce water waste and make it easier to design systems. The rotary nozzle is a truly remarkable innovation with a low precipitation rate, highly uniform distribution, and increased radius range, all in a nozzle which fits on a Rain Bird spray head. Rotary nozzles provide unsurpassed design flexibility and highly efficient water distribution from 13 to 24 feet.
U-Series Nozzles: These patented U-Series nozzles from Rain Bird result in the most uniform water distribution available for spray heads. This is the only plastic nozzle with a dual-orifice design that efficiently delivers superior close-in watering and even water distribution across the entire radius range.
Reason #4. Experience! Paradise Restored has some of the most experienced irrigation crews in the city. All our technicians go through our rigorous hands on training. Paradise Restored has installed more sprinkler systems in the area than other companies. With over 15 years in the business we have handled any problem encountered in the installation process. We know how to overcome these problems correctly and efficiently... This experience is invaluable!
Reason #5. Our partnership with trusted brands! There are few companies that can boast the relationships we have with trusted brands. We have been chosen by RainBird, Hunter, and Toro as a select contractor. Other companies might be chosen by one of these companies, but there are very few that have been chosen by all three of these elite brands. These companies show their trust in Paradise Restored as an industry leading installer in your area by including us as one of their prequalified irrigation contractors.
Reason #6. Over 15 years in business! Have you ever heard the old saying "Here today - gone tomorrow"? This is a sad reality for many companies today. Many companies have a contracted with homeowners to install their irrigation one day and folded up and disappeared the next - or a few days or weeks later. As a result, some homeowners' find they paid part of their money in advanced for installations that were never completed. Others have discovered too late that they have paid for inferior workmanship and materials and that entire job must be done again. This is not the case with Paradise Restored. We have been in business over 15 years, have a very professional reputation, and are here to stay. We also have an industry leading warranty on parts and workmanship to further ease the minds of our clients.
Reason #7. References! We have had the privilege of working for some of the most wonderful people over the years. Needless to say, we have developed many relationships. We have had an outpouring of happy clients willing and excited to tell other of their outstanding experience with Paradise Restored. Please give us the opportunity to share a list of references with you. We are always looking to build new relationships with future clients and would love to include you as one of our happy clients.
Reason #8. Professionalism! Have you ever heard the many horror stories of hiring contractors? Men at your home smoking and throwing their cigarette butts on your property, different crews showing up everyday, workers swearing, and just plain-old unprofessionalism. All of our crews are in full uniform, our trucks are lettered with our company logo and clean and presentable for each work day. We have no smoking policy at each job site, and we have the same crew at your home from start to finish. One other thing that separates us from our competition is that we will provide you with a project overseer ready to answer your questions on site daily.
Reason #9. Communication! Paradise Restored knows the importance of communication before, during, and after the installation process. We work hard to answer any questions that might come up before the project even begins. Our communication during the project is unmatched in the industry. We have a project overseer at each job site that works and oversees the crew each day, all day. He has been trained to take the time to not only verbally answer your questions but show you the answer hands on. We have found that taking this time is invaluable to our clients. Our irrigation manager as well as our office manager are also available bu phone each day. If you need anything, have any questions, or have any concerns we want to hear about it. When the need for communication comes up, that becomes our highest priority untill all your questions are answered.
Reason #10. Commitment! As you read the previous nine reasons why you should choose Paradise Restored we hope you could feel our commitment behind every reason. We are committed to you. We are committed to conserving water. We are committed to our community. We are committed to professional business practices. We are committed to above industry standard design and installation.
