Smart irrigation is ultimately a discipline of precision and proof. We start with hydraulics; correct pipe sizing, pressure regulation, master valves, and isolation strategy; so the network performs predictably before a single schedule is written. Zoning follows hydrozones and exposure (sun/shade, wind, reflective heat) to prevent over-watering and stress. Controllers are selected for clarity and telemetry: central or hybrid topologies that log events, push alerts, and allow staged rollouts without locking you into a single vendor. Flow and pressure sensing at strategic locations create a verifiable chain of custody for water, while moisture inputs are used where they add signal (not noise). Every decision aims at stable delivery, low losses, and operators who have the right information at the right time.

Controls are commissioned with the same rigor as MEP: valve diagnostics, fail-safe behavior on sensor faults, alarm thresholds, and role-based access for the O&M team. Seasonal programs are built from water budgets and adjusted with on-site feedback, not guesswork; storm pause, cycle-and-soak, and station interlocks are configured to protect soils and hardscape. We document as-builts, controller maps, and naming conventions that survive personnel changes. When owners are ready, we integrate dashboards that compare budget vs. actual, generate exception reports, and surface true leaks versus harmless anomalies. The result is a transparent system that saves water without compromising plant health; and one your team can actually run.
