A sprinkler system can help you keep your lawn and garden lush and healthy while saving you time and energy. There are various systems available for different types of plants and garden areas. If you’re looking for ways to upgrade your outdoor space this summer, here are some irrigation options to consider. 

What Type of Sprinkler System Should I Consider?

1. Inground Spray Systems

This type of system consists of pipes that run underground to small sprinkler heads that pop up when activated. The sprinkler heads can rotate to cover a large area or stay mostly stationary to provide more concentrated watering. Inground systems are most popular with lawns, since they can easily provide consistent water; many systems can even be programmed to go off at specific times throughout the week. 

2. Mist Systems

Mist systems provide smaller water droplets over a specific area. These sprinklers are meant to mimic rainfall, quickly saturating entire plants and allowing water to seep down to the roots gradually, while droplets also cover the leaves and flowers to provide a cooling, moisturizing effect. These systems are often used in gardens and agricultural settings for plants that thrive in rainy conditions. 

3. Drip Systems

Drip irrigation provides direct access to water over a long period of time. These systems consist of hoses that have holes spread out to allow water to seep directly into the soil. One of the main benefits is its water saving features; since water goes directly to the soil, less is lost through evaporation. This system can be used to water various plants, especially those that need lots of water access.
