Landscape Irrigation: Understanding Irrigation Components to Improve Water Use Efficiency for Residential and Commercial Landscapes

Steven Moore, our presenter, will discuss the significance of each component within an effective irrigation system to improve landscape water management. The presentation will begin with the principles that drive proper hydrozoning; the first vital step in irrigation design. Delivery of water to each hydrozone requires sprinkler heads with proper nozzles or drip emitters, control valves, pressure regulators, piping, and controllers to work together to sustain a healthy beautiful landscape. In addition, our presenter will go over how irrigation systems operate and what parts we can upgrade or replace to improve irrigation effectiveness. Lastly, based on his thirty years of experience, he will discuss and offer solutions to typical issues with landscape irrigation systems and management.

Our presenter Steven Moore, a Landscape Architecture graduate from Utah State University, has been involved in the landscape industry since 1980. He gained hands-on experience in landscape and irrigation system design working for a landscape contractor and at a wholesale irrigation supply company. In 2001, he founded Irrisoft, where he developed and patented ‘Weather Reach’ smart irrigation control technology. His company, Moore Water Management, an irrigation consulting business, helps organizations use water wisely. Moore is active in industry affairs and continues to improve water use efficiency.
