Conventional systems DO NOT waste waster as per your diagram. Manufacturers design the heads to be spaced as to have matched precipitation and even precipitation rate which is why the head to head coverage is needed. On a properly installed system, no matter where you measure there will be equal water applied.
Good to see you posting again! I just found your channel via RUclips recommendation, so congrats! Keep it coming! If you are taking build ideas, I can't for the life of me find a good video for building a wheelchair ramp. I have the jist of it, but I can't figure out how to make the cuts for the 8ft joists that run from the ledger to the sit flush on the ground at both ends of the ramp. Everyone glosses over that part.
That is pretty cool! I'm saving this video for later!
How did you tie into the water though
great video, but how do you hook it up to the water line?
Thanks for your useful sharing! but how come you haven't updated in a long time🤔 looking forward to your new videos!
Brad you didn't show how to connect it to the water source .
Not cool Brad
Yeah. Make new video. Show it.

I've made that planning and the cost is 6000$ for my 100m2 yard. I can do a "traditional" one with less than 1000$ and with 5000$ I'm pretty sure that I can cover the consumed water all my life :)
They should make it to where you can adjust the range of the spray by just going up and down on a scroll wheel as its moving in a circle on the app makes it easier.
Primer when you glue?
The failure rate on the heads is pretty high and their customer service is hit or miss. I'm glad to see they have fixed the wiring issues now with the preterminated cables. They could have sold a ton of these systems if they would have just lowered their price. Unfortunately they spent 10 years developing this, spent tens of millions of venture capital money and now the time has come to pay the piper. I see this company going the way of Juicero. Hopefully it gets scooped up by Rain Bird when it finally goes tits up.
You like tofu?
“Tits up” gave it away that you are from the UK! Lol
Well usually the inventors are not the money makers. It’s when the Patent runs out is when these thing become affordable as every big company will produce.
"Tape maysure" 😂
How much per head?
Looks cool but as is I have had to repair sprinklers about 5-6 times in the last year from contractors busting them. My worry would be spending so much and someone immediately breaking it.
I would love to know, how does their customer service work for those who have installed this. I have a bad head, and it's been weeks of emails and no resolutions
Iv worked with there customer service a few times calling in and they had a service tech get back to me right away. Might try calling
@@ProjectBuildStuff
I've called, and the answering machine comes on every time. We have sent emails for a few weeks and they would reply that they are working on it. For this type of money, I would think costumer or tech service would be much better
Where Do I buy this
money spent on this system is $4000.00 doing it yourself and you are limited if something shorts out, you can not go to local supply. I can design a system that saves water bills 25%. the key is precipitation to the lawn and plants in a standard home.
This is great. Let's see if it lasts more than 3 years.
I used to joke about "wiring up each head"... But I guess it's a thing now 🤯
Cost vs time (my crews time) is not comparable. Hopefully they cost much less soon.
Paid advertisement?
Did I miss the somewhat-important part of the process where you provide a water source to this system? (and by somewhat, I mean critically)
Pray for rain.
Did you just hook it up to a hose bib
I can stomach the price of the sprinkler heads, but the controller cost is *_insane._* It was going to cost close to $2k for one sprinkler head and a controller- not installed, of course. Extra sprinkler heads were something like $368, I think.
The upfront cost is definitely more then a regular system but what you save on total installation cost and water usage makes up for it in the long run
@@ProjectBuildStuffrofl,ok please show me the back of the napkin math on that? No way would this system pay for itself vs a basic sprinkler system that is setup correct. What the pay back period, 20 years assuming nothing electronic breaks in that 20 years. Would love to see that pay back comparison for your yard.
The sprinkler/controller cost is genuinely stupid.
This is something you can program on a $5 arduino board with $cheap ass servos.
@@honkhonk8009yes, just because techie people like you and me COULD do it, doesn't mean the bulk of people can.
@@nova31337 No i mean why isnt this thing sold in mass on Amazon? Like this the type of thing you expect to have its plans sold for free online yk.
Its a cool idea and im confused why more people aint tried it before lol
$2,000 vs $350 if I layout traditional sprinkler system...I don't think so!
They gave me a quote for a certain price then two days later told me the price was going up 20%.
Idk about $1000 for one sprinkler head.
Sitting on our lawn and.the sprinklers come on, the kids go there some that don't work, Don't worry about those ai technology, we all take a drink to yahoo and one bottle of whiskey, when's mom coming home better hope she's got my plates on her car all I'm saying, Daughter grabs my smokes agree.
Pex would be better. Flexible... more direct runs... less trenching and pipe, even stil. Oh, and less pressure loss due to elbows.
Supposedly you're not supposed to bury PEX without a special wrap applied, which can add to the cost. Schedule 40 PVC should be preferred as it is also more durable and resistant to breakage. Also make sure you know how deep your frostline is for your region or you will end up being very sad when summer comes around.
@@nova31337 I've never read anything about a special wrap. I've read "properly insulated" which has always been in the context of getting it below the frost line... the soil being the insulator.
Just had a call with them this week, they said for my area that the best solution would be 1" polypipe, as it has less issues in the cold. Added bonus, it's cheaper. Also the frost line is fairly irrelevant, you need to blow the whole system out or you're gonna have a bad time.
@@NDGeist I agree with respect to the frost line. It ends up being more of an insurance policy, but more for also ensuring that you don't easily strike the pipe with anything else.
$2000 for ONE sprinkler head system LOL
It would be like 4-6k ton have someone come out and install a normal system
Better solution - plant drought tolerant plants
Hard work? If you can afford this system (being as insanely expensive as it is), you hire someone to do the work. You, working together with them, might have gotten it for free - so you saved a lot DIY’ing the whole thing! But starting at $2000 (and that is only ONE head), you sure can afford to pay $200 to have someone else do the work 🤪
easiest and most expensive.
You've got to be insane to buy this. An irrigreen starter system with 1 sprinkler head, one wire and the controller will run you 8000 dollars.
The sprinkler head alone is 1100+ dollars.
A regular sprinkler head is like 15 bucks.
The controller, which needs about as much brains as a 20 dollar ESP32 nodemcu will run you 6500 dollars.
Absolute insanity.
You are very misguided, or your math is really poor. A 3 head system with controller is a little over 2000.
@@thehousedr4 Actually it's their website that's doing the poor maths i've just figured out. It seems to be converting to my local currency, but it's still using the dollar sign on the website. So initially a 3 sprinkler system is 11178 dollars, but when actually adding it to my basket it's suddenly 11178 Polish Zloty's, which makes a bit of a difference.
Good thing i'm not in Hungary, because then it would show up for half a million dollars.
hate to be that gut but no deburring the pipe, primer, or gluing both pieces the pipe and the fitting! Yikes next time watch some youtube videos on how to fit PVC pipes before showing others how to do it. And The kinked line!
Yo, primer alone can weld-fuse pipes together fully strongly. Cement alone can work too, if the pipe is clean.
Primer both sides, glue both sides. Plus he didn't give it any rotation (which might be the worst offense of all) when he put the pipe in @ 5:25..
Without the rotation is the least concern, with proper priming and/or cementing, with a clean pipe,… at least for 1/2'' to 1'' pvc.@@NDGeist
