This irrigation system was a major upgrade for Mad Meadow Farm near Hamilton. Irrigation is increasingly necessary with unpredictable weather, and automated watering cycles means our client can set it an leave it. A 12,000 L outdoor tank is automatically topped off from well and rain water when it is running low. A variable speed pump provides irrigation water from an outdoor tank to 7 irrigation zones covering 37,000 square feet with drip lines or sprinklers. The system is programmable, expandable for more zones, and includes a rainwater harvesting system to supplement the well water used for irrigation.
