IRRIGATION

  • System Installation

    Today’s golf course owner faces a multitude of challenges and questions when it comes to water. From the increasing societal pressure to be good custodians of our planet’s resources to the rising cost of water and the wide variety of new irrigation technologies available, what’s suitable for your facility can be a tricky question.

    Since day one, LU has been helping owners assess what they have and pull together the team to get the most out of their existing system. When the time comes, we will install new systems that position the course in a fiscally and environmentally responsible manner for years to come. The expertise developed over decades of successful irrigation system repair and replacement allows LU to offer valuable insight into the design, installation, management, and maintenance of all irrigation systems.

  • Better-Performing Systems

    The LU Irrigation teams and support staff are experienced with all the latest products and technology…as well as the stuff that’s been in the ground for a while.  LU invests heavily in continued education and training for all of our personnel, and our teams are constantly looking for the tools that help superintendents be more efficient in delivering water to their course.  LU can assist with improving delivery via precision sprinklers and nozzles.  We are experts in the installation of long-lasting and durable HDPE piping systems.

    We have decades of experience installing and optimizing satellite, decoder, and wireless control systems.  We prefer to utilize variable frequency drive pump stations to charge the system.  Lastly, we believe that soil sensor monitoring and weather stations are a vital part of the irrigation system that is too-often overlooked.

To maintain its reputation for lush greenery and exceptional playability, the club management partnered with Landscapes Unlimited to complete an irrigation system replacement. The project aimed to upgrade the existing irrigation system, incorporating modern technology to enhance efficiency, water conservation, and overall sustainability.
