Tendercare Lawn Landscape

Simplicity

With a new irrigation system installed, you’ll never have to drag a hose all over the yard, never have to try and figure out if you’ve applied enough or too much water, and you’ll never have to worry about watering the lawn while you’re away.

Value

Attractive landscaping requires substantial investment and careful maintenance. An automatic irrigation system protects that investment by growing healthier, longer living plants and grass. Healthy, well-manicured landscapes will also measurably increase your property’s appraised value and curb appeal.

Controllers

Controllers are the brains of a sprinkler system. They activate and deactivate designated irrigation zones according to programmed run times. Properly programed controllers ensure a landscape is receiving the right amount of water at the optimal watering time. Choosing the right controller typically depends on the number of zones needed in a system, and whether or not those zones will be added to or reduced in the future.

Benefits

Hunter controllers are reliable and easy to program. In addition to the advanced capabilities offered in our controllers, Hunter controllers can also be upgraded to a smart controller with products such as the Solar Sync ET sensor, which adjusts your watering schedule automatically based on daily weather conditions, resulting in increased water savings throughout the year.

Choosing A Professional

Installing an automatic irrigation system is a complex task. That’s why it is best to hire a qualified professional to design, select, install, and maintain your system. Irrigation contractors are experts in hydraulics, proper sprinkler system layout, plant water requirements and soil types. Their skills will help ensure a water-efficient system and years of trouble-free operation.
But how do you make sure that the person you hire is qualified to do the job? Here are some handy guidelines to follow when choosing a contractor:

• Check for a valid license/certification (if required in your state)
• Ask for proof of liability insurance
• Talk to local references
• Make certain each contractor inspects your property prior to submitting a bid
• Insist that the installation be completed in a timely manner
• Beware of low bidders that take costly shortcuts
• Be sure the contractor will obtain any required permits
• Be certain the contractor will install the backflow preventer required by local codes (to protect your drinking supply)
