Lake Irrigation Systems
Lake systems require special knowledge of pumps and design that West Irrigation Services has spent years acquiring through education, service and build experience. Picking the right pump for the design and property is very important. There are many options for irrigation pumps. These pumps can range in cost from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. We use only the best pumps for our builds with the goal to provide many years of continuous use. Like anything else in life, you get what you pay for.
Invasive species like zebra mussels require a special approach to pump installation to protect against failure. We have modified and installed many pumps with special suction baskets and extra check valves to help eliminate the negative effects of the zebra mussel to both the pumps and the irrigation system.
Lake systems require the cleanliness of their water supplies to be taken into account during design, build and service. Lake water is dirty. Filtration of the water and the materials used in the system are required for proper long term operation. It is our belief that given our experience with these systems we have develop a winning strategy for both build and service.
