Drip Irrigation

New Water Systems provide drip irrigation systems for wastewater, greywater, and rainwater systems. 

Drip irrigation is a great alternative to the surface discharge of wastewater or rainwater. By using drip irrigaition for a home, business, or even an entire town, water is being reused in a beneficial way that reduces the environmental impacts of fresh water consumption and of water discharge.

The use of pressure compensatory emitters with drip irrigation ensures that all areas of the drip lines are loaded evenly resulting in uniform distribution. This slow dispersal rate allows for the best absorption time of the soil, avoiding soil saturation with surface contamination and deep percolation into ground water. The water and nutrients are then evenly distributed to the active root zone.

Drip irrigation is a safer way to release treated wastewater and rainwater to the environment. Sub surface dispersal significantly minimizes human health risk by eliminating the potential of human contact. In addition to the health benefits, the environmental benefits of drip irrigation include recharging the aquifer, elimination of phosphate run-off and the reuse of nitrogen.
