Ugh. That's disappointing. Nothing wrong with being connected to the cloud for convenience. But it should still be otherwise fully functional with no cloud access at all.
Nice to see you becoming a lawn guy. I considered Irrigreen when I installed my irrigation system, but found its cost way beyond reasonable and its performance when starting grass from seed as suboptimal. In comparison I spent under $200 in parts for my front and back yards, including pipe, anti-siphon valves, heads, and fittings. Irrigreen can work well for established grass, but it can be too slow/water falling too hard for germinating seed. To germinate seed, you need to keep the seed moist for 7-21 days depending on the grass type. That’s a light mist every few hours. For my system that’s 1 minute every 90 mins. But you can’t do that with the slow speed that Irrigreen operates. The seeds may dry up before the entire yard is done with its previous cycle. Also, the water falls very hard in comparison to a traditional spray head. Seed will end up moving around when it’s hit by the water and you end up with patchy germination coverage. Growing from seed is a challenge. Once the grass is established, the Irrigreen may be good option.
My wifi sprinkler ontroller was like $250. Controls the 4 circuits in my yards system great. From anywhere. Unless you have you have a gigantic yard you don't need heads that can spray 60 feet.
I installed a similar setup when I moved into my house, but instead of those smart sprinkler heads I just sprinkled drout resistant grass seed. Cost me about $50 to install and about $0 per year in water cost
I design and install sprinkler system. The one thing I saw that you did was run your trencher over your utility markings. Where I leave you have to dig by hand and find the utility.
Neat stuff. I wish a system like this operated at 2-4gpm and 30psi. Those of us in old pump-fed systems will have to continue hoping an alternative to grass solves the watering needs.
I would have no problem with the irrigation lines, but I'd need to hire out a new spigot through the foundation. The bigger issue is we have to have a separate water meter installed for irrigation to get a water-only rate or you're stuck paying sewage fees (2x the water rate) on all that water just running into your grass (and you get to pay the city's inspector to approve it!). When I priced it out ten years ago, that was close to $1000 between the meter, the labor and the inspection. I decided dormant grass in July and August were fine with me. Less mowing. LOL
Very interesting. Its always a good idea to tape the communications cable so that it is under the piping before you cover it up. That way you are less likely to cut it if you have to dig near your piping. Anyway, love the idea, hate that it is cloud based. I wont buy it unless it can be controlled and managed locally.
Keep in mind that when you go to plant your grass seed, the Irrigreen tends to wash out the seed about a foot or so from the head because of the lowermost stream is relatively high pressure.
A $5 brass water jet nozzle attached to a garden hose would've made quick work going under that sidewalk. My irrigation system was super simple and super cheap .... rain. It seems to be on the fritz at the moment but that just means less mowing so I still consider it a win. 🤣 In all seriousness, the cost of this system would be nothing compared to the yearly water bill that would accompany it. I have a neighbor who paid $5k to have a sophisticated sprinkler system installed (about a half acre of yard). He ran it on alternating days for a month. Loved it and loved to brag about it ... until he received a water bill that was $700 higher than usual. Hasn't turned it on since and that was 7 years ago.
This is a pretty cool system and I will be watching for your honest updates, like it was mentioned there are a few channels that have the system installed but no follow-ups which is a yellow caution flag for me.
I do some small scale home irr systems as part of my handyman jobs in Tucson, AZ were deep freezes are rare. Hence, depth of piping is less critical. I don't know your codes, since I didn't do this type of work when I still lived in Chicago area. Anyway, seems like 8 to 10" depth is somewhat shallow for the Chicago deep and lengthy freezes there, even if drained in Winter.
Also, seems like cloud based is an unnecessary luxury if you live in the home. Only thing it adds is the convenience of control from anywhere. I can only see the point if it was a rental property.
First of thank you so much, I always learn so much from your videos, secondly, can you please make the video on how to install the back flow , I will be adding a line from my basement same as yours. Thirdly, I saw so many bad reviews on irrigreen heads going bad, is it still the case? I am about to make the order taking the advantage of Black Friday deal . Please reply asap if possible
For my area we use poly pipe and a copper with solder only back flow setup . I believe like many plumbers and contractors that press pipe joints are guaranteed to eventually leak.
Thank you and informative. I am thinking about this system. I think people underrate the water saving value. That said there are the disadvantages mentioned. My question involves the sidewalk strip you mentioned. Does the system allow multiple passes so you caan only water the strip? In your case is the side walk watered?
A $20 garden auger for your drill makes undermining that sidewalk rather easy especially if you can find a use for it besides just going under 1 sidewalk.
Clever but how does the system get uniform coverage from the center of a square or polygon? Does the rate of rotation change as the edge gets closer and/or the water at various radiuses (head orifices) change with angle)? Most systems work with head to head irrigation to get close to uniform (same inches per hour edge to edge +/- 15%).
I did my own irrigation system to cover 3k sq ft. 28 heads in 4 zones. Something I question is going from 3/4" copper to 1" PVC. Won't your flow or pressure be affected going up in size?
I want a system where each head independently detects soil moisture in its area and throttles back runtime based on snapshot soil moisture prior to the scheduled run.
This is a serious job that I know I would mess up measurably without help. You have explained it very well but it would be overwhelming to do myself. Very interesting and informative. Thank you for sharing
I have looked at this system. Interesting tech but pricy. I am not clear on the wiring. I assume the solenoid is at the head. Are all heads in series on the same cable? Are the heads addressable so they only run one at a time? I will be looking for follow up videos.
I really love your videos, but do have to comment on the lawn one. If lawns were not cut super short, drenched in herbicides and pesticides, didn’t use ground cover like clover, etc., we wouldn’t need irrigation.
Very nice system, I had no idea such an irrigation product existed. That's awesome how it distributes water economically and efficiently. How did you get that steady bird's eye footage (4:30) of you going around your yard? Is that just a super steady drone?
One downside to systems like these is that in areas where water is a premium the scheduling coefficient, the efficiency of the water being put on the turf, is not as high as simple rotors or multi-stream nozzles. If you are into tech they are super cool but are difficult to justify in the warmer/drier climates. Basically one will use more water for the same quality of turf.
It knows the flow rate so it knows how many inches of water it’s putting out over its programmed area so how does it use MORE water? They report it uses less also because there’s less waste for example hitting side walks, trees, bushes etc
@@baxt1412 The efficiency in above ground irrigation is determined by the driest area, generally the driest 5% versus the rest of the irrigated area. In other words if I have to water the driest area X minutes to get the appropriate amount of water for the turf then I am over watering the rest of the turf by X times the scheduling coefficient. With high end golf rotors that is generally a scheduling coefficient of 1.1 or 10% extra watering. With residential the efficiency is not that good but sort of close. These types of rotors generally do not have excellent efficiency and are significantly higher scheduling coefficient. Regarding sidewalks that may very well be true but a well designed system should be minimal. Agreed that not all systems are well designed. Trees and bushes will cause a problem with any system, this system still throws water in a straight line so they cause problems with all systems.
@@r5k8p9 good info to think about especially as I was thinking these and was thinking one head for two areas in my front but one has significantly more shade and likely would need less water. So I’d have to modify have you seen these in action? They go around trees and landscape beds etc. multi point polygon shape including essentially curves when you add in enough polygon points
A question not related to this video, but related to irrigation system: I am trying to find my sprinkler valves which were not marked/ buried underneath the ground. I used some wire detector like 'kolsol f02' , however it's hit and miss, was able to find some zones but not the others. Any suggestions?
There are products that make the solenoid chatter, cycling quickly. They are somewhat costly for a one time use. Look for Armada and Tempo products. There are others and even some irrigation controllers that have this feature. I have never used one so I am unsure how well they work on valves that are truly "hidden".
Why did you go up ti 1 1/4" for the shut off valve and not just 1" shut off? Why the increase? Seems like overkill since you already went from 3/4" to 1" pipe.
I couldn't find the right PVC fitting to get to 1" NPT with a 1" PVC shut off for the sprinkler flexible hose. That is why I made the increase to 1 1/4".
