Sprinklers in Boise, Idaho

A sprinkler irrigation system is a planned system in which all necessary components have been installed for efficient application of irrigation water by means of nozzles operated under pressure. Sprinkler irrigation designs are based on an evaluation of the site considering soil, topography, water supply, energy supply, trees, shrubs, flowers to be grown, labor requirements, and expected operating conditions.

The purpose of a sprinkler system is to efficiently and uniformly apply irrigation water to trees, shrubs and flowers or soil without causing erosion, excessive water loss, or reduction in water quality. An irrigation system must be designed as an integral part of a conservation plan based on the capabilities of the natural resources and the needs of each residential or commercial design. The most efficient type of system should be planned.
