Irrigation Installation

The irrigation installation is underway.  To date we have installed over 7000 feet of mainline pipe.

 Sod is stripped and the pipe and wire laid out the length of the trench.
 
 It is then trenched or dug.
 
 Pipe, wire, and fittings are installed.
 

 The trench is backfilled and compacted.
 
 
The sod is set back on a little high to allow for any future settling.
 
The mainline should be complete around Thanksgiving.  At that time we will begin putting in laterals and heads on one hole at a time.
