Why Hire IMS as Your Irrigation Manager?
You get the following benefits with IMS:
- Effective irrigation management using the Maxicom2 system requires expert use of the system and a solid understanding of what happens in the field. IMS has that expertise.
- Receive the full benefit of true central irrigation control without the significant investment in computer hardware and software. IMS already has it.
- Irrigate your plant material using a weather-based schedule. Using Maxicom2, IMS will ensure that water will be applied in accordance with weather conditions and not a clock.
- Eliminate the need to manage the irrigation system in-house. During the normal irrigation season, IMS will monitor your site 7 days a week. That makes sense since your plant material needs water as much on Saturday as it does on Tuesday.
What About Properties Without Maxicom2?
For these situations, IMS can help in other ways:
Irrigation System Maps – Using a client-supplied CAD file, we can produce a color map clearly showing the area covered by each valve, the plant type in each valve zone, the type of irrigation head and to which controller each valve is connected. These maps are extremely valuable in making sure everyone involved with an irrigation system knows what is where on a property.
Database of Irrigation System – In addition to a map, IMS can also measure flow rates, categorize sun exposure and estimate precipitation rates. This data is vital to building an effective irrigation schedule.
Irrigation Audits - IMS can provide a third party assessment of whether an irrigation system was installed in a manner consistent with industry standards. This gives the assurance that the system purchased was actually put in place.
