Irrigation
Due
to this areas arid conditions almost all landscapes need some sort of
watering device. We provide installation of traditional
irrigation systems as well as state of the art subsurface systems. With
the technology today sprinkler systems can be designed to use
up to 65% less water than traditional systems. (For example Evapotranspiration
controllers can calculate how much water is evaporating
out of your soils and then adjust to compensate.)
We are now able to irrigate lawn areas using subsurface irrigation tubing.
This allows complete root zone watering without above ground sprinkler
heads. This product decreases water use significantly and provides noise
less operation.
We have solutions for any irrigation problem from a small lawn to a sports
field pump house Aspen Valley Landscaping can accommodate your
irrigation needs.

Paul James, host of HGTV's Gardening by the Yard,
discusses the advantages of drip irrigation.
Drip irrigation is the most efficient way to deliver water where plants
need it most: the root zone. You can make a simple drip-irrigation system
by filling a plastic soda bottle with water, punching a few pinholes in
the bottom and placing it near the base of a plant. The water will seep
from the bottle slowly, delivering the water at ground level.
A better way is to install a permanent drip-irrigation system, which you
can use to water trees, shrubs, flowers, vegetables and even hanging plants.
You can purchase a simple kit and install the system yourself. You may
find that you recoup the expense in as little as one year through savings
on water.
Because drip-irrigation systems deliver water slowly and directly, almost
no water is lost to evaporation. Studies show that a properly installed
drip system uses 30 percent to 50 percent less water than more conventional
watering methods. Once your system is in place, you'll no longer need
to drag hoses around and set up
sprinklers.
