IrriGreen Genius Irrigation System – Training Manual Page 1 Changing the way we water the world™ IrriGreen™ Genius™ Irrigation System Training Manual Introduction The Genius irrigation system combines digital technology with a patent pending nozzle design to produce an irrigation system capable of distributing water in patterns that fit the shape of the landscape. The Genius irrigation system does this while both reducing the water required to irrigate the landscape and saving significant installation time and materials. The Genius irrigation system is designed to significantly reduce the labor required to install in‐ground irrigation systems while at the same time reducing water required to sufficiently water the lawn. The center of the system is the Genius sprinkler that can be programed to water a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This sprinkler reduces the need for distribution pipe by up to 85%, significantly cuts the number of sprinkler heads required and reduces the amount of water typically wasted to irrigate the lawn by up to 50%. While the cost of the water is born by the property owner, it is still a barrier that can be turned into an opportunity when selling the benefits of Genius irrigation systems to consumers. Reducing installation labor for the installer and reducing end user water bills are compelling reasons for irrigation contractors to consider switching all or part of their installation business to the Genius irrigation system. The installer will be able to address business in more price sensitive areas by offering services at a reduced price while maintaining profitability on every installation. Their customers will be happier with green, hassle free lawns and lower water bills than those customers with conventional irrigation systems. This training manual is a component of a training program developed to train experienced irrigation contractors on the techniques unique to installing the Genius irrigation system. This program is intended for licensed (if required by local and/or state code), experienced irrigation contractors for residential and commercial in‐ground irrigation systems. It is not intended as a complete or comprehensive training program for installing in‐ground irrigation systems. THIS TRAINING PROGRAM IS INTENDED FOR IRRIGATION CONTRACTORS THAT ARE ALREADY LICENSED AND/OR EXPERIENCED IRRIGATION PROFESSIONALS. (NOTE: PROFESSIONAL IRRIGATION TRAINING RECOMMENDED.) The following points will be covered by this training program and manual: Comparison of the Genius irrigation system to conventional sprinkler systems. Key features and benefits of the Genius irrigation system. Selling the Genius irrigation system. Installation techniques unique to the Genius irrigation system. Programming the Genius sprinklers. Maintenance techniques unique to the Genius irrigation system. System warranty information. IrriGreen Genius Irrigation System – Training Manual Page 2 Changing the way w we wa ater the w world™ Com mparison of the t Genius Irrigation Sysstem to Con nventional SSystems 1. System similarities, th he Genius irriggation system m: Designed to be e permanentlly installed into the lawns and landscap pes of residen ntial and commercial properties. Designed for use u with conventional irrigation control lers, rain sensors, etc. currently being u used by irrigation syste em installers. Requires the same 24 VAC low l voltage power source for Genius seerver as convventional conttrollers. Uses similar distribution pip pe and fittings currently beeing used to iinstall conven ntional in‐gro ound irrigation syste ems, but signiificantly less pipe p length a nd fewer fittiings. Requires the same mainten nance for spring start‐up a nd fall blow‐o outs as conveentional irrigaation systemss, an nd is compatiible with regu ular sequencing for typicall blow‐out pro ocedures. Irrrigates in wattering zones – 1 zone for 1 sprinkler. Can be used in n conjunction with conventtional system m zones and controllers if rrequired. Uses the same e water source as conventiional systemss. 2. System diifferences, th he Genius irrigation system m: Uses software in sprinklers,, servers and programmerrs so the wateer pattern forr each individual Genius sp prinkler can be b programmed to fit the landscape it iss watering. Elliminates the need for heaad‐to‐head watering overlaap (see graph hics below, Co onventional vvs. IrriGreen). Genius sprinkle ers digitally control the waater flow disttance and rotational speed d of the multi‐stream nozzle. Genius sprinkle ers are 11.5 inches in heigght from top tto bottom. Uses 12 VDC to o power and communicate e with each G Genius sprinkller, so distancces up to 500 0 feet away frrom server are allowed. Requires the water pattern for each Gen nius sprinkler be programm med (using IrriGreen’s Gen nius programmer) to t fit the indivvidual landscape shape beeing watered in each zone. In ncludes an IrriGreen netwo ork server wh hich is electriccally connecteed to a 3rd paarty irrigation controller, electrically con nnected to eaach sprinkler and a a wirelesss programmeer for mappin ng each waterring zone. Wireless progrrammer can be b used for mapping each watering zon ne up to 200 ffeet away fro om server. We W recommen nd a master shutoff valve be b installed bbetween the w water source and the Genius sprinklers. Conventiional System IrriGrreen Genius Irrigation Systtem – Training Manual IrriGreeen System IrriGreen Nozzle Page 3 Changing the way we water the world™ Key Features and Benefits of the Genius Irrigation System Because the Genius sprinklers are individually programmable, each sprinkler can be programmed to water the specific landscape geometry within the watering it is located. During the installation process, the water throw distances are programmed for each individual sprinkler to match the landscape geometry it will irrigate. Minimum watering overlap is recommended between Genius sprinklers, and the need for head‐to‐head sprinkler watering coverage is eliminated. This elimination of required head‐to‐head coverage can result in saving as much as 50% of the wasted water. Since each sprinkler has its own self‐contained flow control valve, the need for valve boxes servicing multi‐head zones is no longer necessary. This in turn reduces the amount of distribution pipe required to install a system, in many cases by 85%, which also reduces the time required to pull or trench the pipe. The result is a significant savings in installation labor, reducing the time required to install a given system by 50% or more. Key Feature: Digitally controlled water distribution at individual sprinkler heads Capability to program the watering pattern to fit the shape of the landscape. Minimizes over watering by eliminating the need for head‐to‐head coverage. Ensures accuracy of water delivery precipitation rate. Provides accurate watering times and precipitation rates during installation. Reduces the amount of distribution pipe required for installation. Reduces the number of irrigation sprinklers required for installation – 1 zone for 1 sprinkler. Reduces the direct and indirect labor required to install the entire system. Reduces the water typically wasted due to overlap while irrigating turf areas by up to 50%. Key Feature: Unique streaming nozzle design (patents pending) Irrigates watering zone using streams of water, reducing wind drift and increasing soil moisture. Increased droplet size from streams rather than spray or mist, which drives water into soil. Creates a more even distribution uniformity over entire watering zone. Reduces the potential for dry spots and minimizes over spraying onto hardscape areas. Uses less water and waters more accurately, which reduces phosphorus runoff. Key Feature: Standard industry design components Works with typical irrigation water sources with standard pipe/tube fittings and electrical connectors. Works in conjunction with standard industry controllers/schedulers. Compatible with rain and/or moisture sensors and other water saving technologies. Capable of functioning in a hybrid system with conventional watering zones using spray, rotor or drip. IrriGreen Genius Irrigation System – Training Manual Page 4 Changing the way we water the world™ Selling the Genius Irrigation System The target customers for the Genius irrigation system are residential and commercial end users. The initial product offering is ideally sized for these customer applications. Initially we will target residential and commercial customers who are on city water and have water supply pressure from of 40 to 80 PSI. These customers will likely be attracted to the Genius irrigation system because of the financial aspect of the water savings while others may want it because it is “green”. In addition, we expect local officials to be interested in this technology because of the potential impact it could have on reducing future water demands and phosphor runoff. 1. Target Customers Residential homeowners Commercial property owners Real estate management firms, consultants and homeowner associations “Green” and Cleantech customers Customers concerned about the cost of water Early “technology” adopters State and local governments (Note: some of these may be influencers and not customers) 2. Why install a Genius irrigation system? Residential and commercial end users will because … Cost savings from lower water bills (vs. conventional systems) Water savings (being green) Less mess and hassle due to torn up landscape Reduced installation time Cool technology (early adopters) 3. And “green” customers and early adopters will because … They want a green lawn They want to be “green” They want to save money They want to tell their neighbors how they are being “green” and sustainable They like to try new things It is cool technology 4. And state and local officials will because… They will be interested in getting behind the technology because of the impact it will have on reducing future water usage for turf irrigation and the positive impact that will have on future capital budgets They will appreciate the potential for reduced phosphor runoff IrriGreen Genius Irrigation System – Training Manual Page 5 Changing the way w we wa ater the w world™ Planning & Layo out for the Genius Irrigation System Use tthe followingg steps to plan your design n: 1. Measure water supplyy pressure an nd capacity in n GPM at the proposed sitte. Use a water pressu ure gauge and d record the pressure in PSSIG at an outdoor spigot. Most city water syystems supplyy between 10‐12 GPM at eeach spigot – please check if uncertain. A 1” pipe p diameterr (or larger) iss recommend ded for distribbution of the main water ssupply line for the Genius irrigattion system. A ¾” main line pipe may provide enouggh GPM at preessures above 60 PSI, but will experrience more pressure drop p and shorter throw distannces. A ½” pip pe or smaller is not recomm mended for main lines. A shortt run of funnyy pipe or swin ng pipe may bbe used from the main linee to individual sprinkler headss. The chart below caan be used to o plan the Gen nius sprinklerr head spacingg, and illustraates the maximum design waterr throw distan nce from a sp prinkler head based on watter supply preessure. (NOTE: it is importtant that calcullations for additional presssure drop due e to elevationn changes, len ngth of main line and use of anti‐ sypho on valves be subtracted fro om the waterr supply presssure to each ssprinkler head d.) 2. Locating the t Genius sp prinkler head ds for each waatering zone mum distance e that a Geniu us sprinkler will w uniformly throw waterr depends on water supplyy pressure The maxim and presssure drop to the sprinkler head. Since Genius sprinkklers will often n be placed n near the centeer of an area of landscaape, the diago onal distance to the corners will determ mine the maxximum distancce. For instan nce, in a 42 x 42 foot sq quare or a 24 x 55 foot rectangle, the diagonal distannce to the corners is 30 feeet. The minim mum design distance that a Genius sprinkler will uniformly th hrow water iss 5 feet. See eexamples of m maximum thro ow distance (in blue) and a minimum m throw distan nce (in red) below.
