Garden Watering Kits

Why use a garden watering kit?

A professional quality garden kit will provide 3 main benefits: it will save hours of time, it will ensure the plants are watered more efficiently and it will speed up establishment and protect against plant losses.

Save hours of time

Hand watering a planted border in the heat of summer is unpleasant and time consuming, it is also inefficient. By using a purpose designed drip watering system that automatically operates in the early morning, time is saved and the ground is watered for the warmth of the day.

Efficient Watering

Modern drip irrigation systems will ensure that almost all of the water applied will enter the soil and be available to the plants. By contrast, a hose pipe on a warm evening will waste 80% of the water to overspray and evaporation.

Faster plant establishment

As a rule of thumb, a garden irrigation system will produce 3 year’s worth of plant growth in a couple of years – ensuring planted borders quickly mature and become established. Plants need sunlight and water to grow, but dry conditions hold back plant growth and the plants prioritise survival over growth – by ensuring they have the water when the need it, they will thrive even during warm spells.

Garden watering kits for borders

A range of border watering kits including highly efficient drip watering kits, mini-sprinkler kits and pop-up border sprinkler kits for watering with no visible on-bed pipework. Kits include all fittings and pipework and allow the kit to be connected to a hosepipe or to an underground supply pipe.

In addition to the border drip watering kits, we sell border sprinkler packages – these use a single pipe down the centre of the border with sprinklers every couple of metres – these kits work well with low planting or taller trees and shrubs where the soil underneath the planting can be watered.

Garden watering kits for hedges

Hedges are normally planted to provide screening, so it is important for them to establish quickly. In addition, failures of plants within the hedge row look unsightly and can be difficult to rectify. The Access Hedge Watering Kit is designed to water 25m or 100m hedge lines using an ultra efficient pressure-compensated drip line with outlets every 300mm. Water can be brought to the hedge using a garden hose of for automated hedge watering a permanent water supply can be laid and a controller added.

Garden watering kits for lawns

For newly laid lawns, temporary lawn watering kits are available that will ensure the seed or turf establish quickly and consistently – there is nothing worse than a patch lawn with dead patches. Once established the temporary kit can be used during hot weather to keep the lawn watered.

For a year-round green lawn then a pop-up lawn watering system can be installed using our Lawn Watering Kits. The pipework is installed underground and the pop up lawn sprinklers rise up when operating. A range of kits are available to suit different sized lawns. Lawn sprinklers are thirsty and require high pressures and flows so pump and tank units are available. These also provide compliance with the UK Water Regulations that require lawn sprinklers mounted in the lawn to be separated from the public water mains.

Automatic Watering Options

There are a number of automatic options. For simple kits we offer tap timers to go onto the tap and give one or two outlets. For bigger systems a valve box can be added under the border or lawn to control up to 4 watering zones using a Bluetooth battery timer. For even bigger systems multiple valve boxes can be added and low voltage signal cable used to link these back to a mains powered Wi-Fi enabled controller.

DIY installation

All of our watering packages are designed for installation by the homeowner or a landscape contractor. The irrigation kits are designed in the Uk for UK based gardens. Instructions are included with all of the kits and extra parts are easily available if the kit needs to be altered to suit the individual garden. Robust and durable parts are used throughout.
