Designing Smarter Irrigation Systems for Peak Performance

Steve Moore, CEO of Moore Water Management, presents a Master Class on selecting and maximizing smart irrigation systems. Steve explains how irrigation components are chosen based on landscape design and how elements like pipe sizing, pressure, and irrigation type—drip, spray, or rotor—must work together as a complete system. He dives into advanced smart controller management, outlining the environmental data required for accurate programming, including vegetation type, climate conditions, and evaporation rates. The episode concludes with the importance of conducting a water audit to evaluate distribution uniformity and make system adjustments that drive peak performance.
