Water Savings

The KISSS system offers many benefits over traditional irrigation systems.

Eliminates bacterial and fungal conditions

Use less water than any other comercial irrigaiton system

More efficient than drip systems

Uses pressure compensating emitters

Wets 300% more soil volume

Eliminates anaerobic conditions in the soil

Eliminates many maintenance issues such as aeration, watering in fertilizers, compacted soil, standing water, and replacing sprinkler heads due to the entire system being subsurface.

More economical because it allows longer runs and wider spacing

KISSS EBB and Flow MAT®

The Ebb and Flow Mat capillary irrigation system is an extremely versatile irrigation system that can be installed on benches or directly onto the ground. Most of the time KISSS Ebb and Flow MAT is installed very easily and with little modification to the existing site. This is especially true when utilizing existing indoor or outdoor benches. Ground installation can be very simple as well. Typically cold frames need little or no modification. Our recommended preparation, however, is using a compactor or evenly raked gravel base.

Here is a Detailed Three Step Description of Ebb and Flow MAT's Irrigating Principals

STEP ONE:
Drip-Tapes deliver water to the sides of the specially designed three-layered nursery irrigation system. Water is evenly and rapidly distributed throughout the system using the mat's central layer of non-woven geo-textile. The bottom impervious layer contains the water to avoid leakage, while the top layer of mat both protects the geo-textile and minimizes loss of water to the air.

STEP TWO:

The Pitfalls of Overhead Irrigation...

KISSS Capillary Subsurface Irrigation solutions cover a broad range of applications for golf course irrigation, including all that can be irrigated using drip irrigation and overhead irrigation systems. Below is a list of common applications. For questions regarding any installation or perhaps your application is NOT listed, please contact us and we will find a solution to your golf course irrigation needs.

Across the country, golf courses are witnessing increased scrutiny to save water and ways to be more environmentally friendly. Traditionally, when faced with the prospect of consuming less water, all golf course managers could do was turn down sprinkler irrigation cycles. However this was problematic because golf course turfs still suffered. But now, with KISSS Subsurface Irrigation solutions, there is a better alternative to consuming less water, while maintaining the high quality of courses.

KISSS Is Significantly More Efficient Than Sprinkler Irrigation and Drip Irrigation When Irrigating Landscape and Turf Sites

USE LESS WATER THAN ANY OTHER COMERCIAL IRRIGATION SYSTEM, A MORE INTELLIGENT SYSTEM:
Responsive to the moisture status of the surrounding soil. The water moves past very wet regions to drier, thirstier soil.

LESS DAMAGE AND VANDALISM:
Installed at approximately four to six inches below the ground, reducing the risk of mechanical damage.
