Irrigation systems are essential for keeping landscapes, farms, and gardens thriving. But like any system, they can face issues that affect performance, water efficiency, and crop health. Whether you’re a homeowner, landscaper, or farmer, dealing with irrigation problems can be frustrating, time-consuming, and costly.
Fortunately, with the right tools and smart solutions, these challenges can be addressed. IGS Water offers innovative technology that tackles many of the most common irrigation issues—making water management simpler, smarter, and more sustainable.
Common Irrigation Problems (And What You Can Do About Them)
1. Low Water Pressure
Low pressure can result in poor spray coverage and under-irrigation, especially in larger systems.
Possible Fixes:
- Inspect for leaks or pipe damage.
- Clean filters and nozzles.
- Consider upgrading to a more efficient pump or pressure booster.
How IGS Water Helps:
The IGS Water Conditioner reduces scale buildup in pipes, a major cause of reduced water flow and pressure. By preventing mineral deposits, it keeps your system running smoothly without chemicals or maintenance.
2. Algae or Odor in Irrigation Water
If you’re using pond, lake, or well water, algae growth and unpleasant odors can clog systems and harm plants.
Possible Fixes:
- Regularly clean water sources and filtration systems.
- Use natural oxidation methods to treat the water.
How IGS Water Helps:
IGS’s Nanobubble Generator injects microscopic oxygen bubbles into the water to break down algae, eliminate foul odors, and improve water quality at the source—making irrigation safer for crops and soil.
3. Scaling and Mineral Deposits
Hard water can lead to calcium buildup inside irrigation components, damaging equipment and restricting water flow.
Possible Fixes:
- Use filters or descaling solutions.
- Flush the system regularly.
How IGS Water Helps:
The IGS Water Conditioner is a low-maintenance, non-chemical solution that modifies the structure of minerals, preventing them from sticking to surfaces and building up inside the system.
