Reticulation Repairs Warning Signs to be Aware
of A reticulation system makes it easy to keep
your garden lush and green. With programmable
capabilities, it is a convenient way to water
your garden whilst also saving time, money and
water. But as with any system, it requires
regular maintenance and service to keep it
working at its best. Sprinkler systems are made
of several electrical and mechanical parts, much
of it in a complex system of wires and pipes
beneath the surface. For this reason, it may not
always be readily apparent when a part
malfunctions. Here are some indicators that you
may be in need of reticulation repairs.
Brown Spots A clear and obvious indication that
your garden isnt being properly watered is when
brown spots and wilting plants start appearing.
These spots of brown dead grass appear gradually
over the spring and summer months, and by autumn,
your lawn could be completely dead. If these
brown spot start appearing, it could mean that
your irrigation system isnt reaching certain
areas of the yard anymore. There are a number of
reasons this occurs including poor water
pressure, blockages or broken sprinkler heads or
even an underground leak. A professional
landscaper Perth will be able to assist you in
identifying the exact problem with some simple
checks. Puddles Another indication that the
irrigation system is malfunctioning is the
appearance of puddles on the lawn, especially
around the sprinkler heads. Over-watering can
have the same consequences as under-watering
both result in unhealthy foliage. If there are
2
puddles popping up on the lawn, it might be a
sign that the sprinkler heads are clogged, poor
drainage in the vicinity or water pressure that
is too high. Sprinkler Heads Wont Come
Up Sprinkler heads that dont pop up fully are a
clear sign that there your reticulation system
is in need of reparations. It could be a sign of
low water pressure, either from the main water
source or from leaks or damage elsewhere in the
system. While sprinklers are designed to
continuously spray water, they are not inherently
self- cleaning. Soil, sand, dust and lawn
clippings are just a few of the many things that
could collect on top of the head preventing it
from working efficiently. If youre looking for
