While installing and repairing reticulation can be a DIY task, it is a great idea to get professional advice on what equipment and supplies are best for your garden’s needs.
To enjoy lush, green lawns and gardens all year round, you should be getting and maintaining a good irrigation system. It’s also important to ensure your reticulation is in good working order for your garden’s sake.
Read on to learn 5 common issues that can occur with an irrigation/reticulation system and what the fault could be including:
- Repairing what part of my reticulation can solve water pooling in my garden?
- Can faulty irrigation be responsible for uneven water coverage?
- Is uneven water pressure caused by faulty reticulation?
- Why is my reticulation system making a noise?
- Could faulty reticulation be causing an excessively high water bill?
Repairing what part of my reticulation can solve water pooling in my garden?
Water pooling on your lawn or in your garden might not be caused by the rainfall – it could be damage to one of your sprinkler heads. If you are having issues with your reticulation, inspecting for damaged or broken sprinkler heads is a good idea. If you’re not sure what that looks like, make sure to call an expert who can suggest what reticulation supplies are right for you.
Can faulty irrigation be responsible for uneven water coverage?
If you notice one or multiple sprinklers aren’t spraying in the direction they should or dead patches are appearing in certain areas of your lawn, it is likely your sprinklers heads need some attention. Sprinkler heads may simply need to be cleaned or if sprinkler heads are cracked or broken, they will need to be replaced.
Is uneven water pressure caused by faulty reticulation?
Turning on your reticulation system and finding little or no water pressure is a frustrating problem. Luckily, it might just be an issue with a faulty water pump or valves, both can be easily replaced or repaired to keep your water flowing the way it is supposed to.
Why is my reticulation system making a noise?
If your reticulation and irrigation supplies are making a high-pitched noise when they are switched on, chances are that it is simply a small or slow leak within one of the valves. Buying new reticulation supplies can solve this issue quickly – or if it is a minor flaw, you can simply tighten the valve yourself with no issue.
Could faulty reticulation be causing an excessively high water bill?
There are many reasons your water bill might be expensive. However, broken reticulation supplies are a major cause of your water usage getting a little too high. If you have tried to cut down on your water usage and still end up with a big bill, it might be time to check your water pipes and consider buying replacement irrigation supplies.
