Landscape Drip Application Guide A Practical Guide for Designing and Installing Drip Irrigation Systems The Intelligent Use of Water™
Product Guide The Efficiency of Drip, Engineered by Rain Bird® Benefits of Xerigation® The Rain Bird’s low volume irrigation products were coined with the phrase “Xerigation” in the 1990’s and include drip irrigation and low volume spray products. The Rain Bird Xerigation system is the most efficient way to water Design flexibility landscapes. Elimination of overspray and runoff Over the last fifteen years, Rain Bird has been a leader in innovation advances that customers value. Earlier advances included the Xeri-PopTM, the first efficient High water efficiency low volume spray with a spray head that retracts out of sight, the self-cleaning back flush filter that reduces maintenance by automatically flushing out debris, Water is delivered at or near and the PR Series Pressure Regulating Filter that combined the regulator and the plant root zone filter into one component reducing the potential for leaks. Plants stay healthier and Today, Rain Bird continues the tradition of innovation with the SQ Series Nozzle live longer and the XF Series Dripline featured below. With the broadest product line, Rain Bird’s Xerigation systems can be designed to meet any site requirement providing unmatched quality, efficient water use, and ease of installation. It is Rain Bird’s long-standing commitment to engineering and Featured Rain Bird® Drip Products quality excellence that sets our SQ Series Nozzle For irrigating small areas with dense plantings, the SQ drip irrigation products apart. Series Nozzle is the most precise and efficient nozzle available. With built-in pressure compensation and a unique square spraying pattern, the need for overlapping is greatly reduced. This means less overspray, overwatering, and runoff than traditional nozzles. It also means you need less nozzles, dramatically reducing your costs and installation time. Demonstrated Water Savings XF Series Dripline (XFD/XFCV/XFS) Inland Empire Utilities Agency The XF Series Dripline is the most flexible, pressure- (IEUA) Building - Chino, CA compensating inline emitter tubing available. Its unique material offers significantly greater flexibility, Solution: Rain Bird developed a allowing tighter turns with fewer elbows for easier comprehensible irrigation system for installation. The dual-layered tubing (brown over the IEUA site, including Xerigation black) provides unmatched resistance to chemicals, products. UV damage and algae growth. Results: 73% less water used than a comparable facility. First public agency Control Zone Kits building to ahieve a LEED Platinum Control your zones with preassembled, compact Rating. Rain Bird Control Zone Kits. Two components (valve and pressure regulating filter) are combined to create a shorter kit, when compared with the competition. This allows you to fit more control zone kits in a single valve box without cramping the work space inside the box, saving you time and money. www.rainbird.com
