Dive Deep Into The Brands You Know & Love
This article explains how Sprinkler Warehouse chooses the brands it sells. Ever wonder why a company picks certain products to carry? Choosing the product lines for Sprinkler Warehouse involved both the obvious and the lesser-known. The major requirement of each brand was that it was reliable, did what it said it would do and would also show our pride in our company.
Hunter & Rain Bird
You cannot discuss irrigation without involving the Hunter and Rain Bird brands. Both of these companies are dedicated to irrigation and produce a full line of products. It would be extremely difficult to think of an irrigation requirement that they cannot fulfill.
The Toro Company
Ever wonder why it’s named Toro? I did. Seems it was started in 1916 to build tractors for Bull Tractors. Fits right in there, doesn’t it? Toro is most famous for its commercial and residential lawn and tractor equipment, snow blowers and utility vehicles. Not as well known is the fact Toro has been in the irrigation business since 1962. They produce a full complement of irrigation supplies and have one of the most innovative controllers on the market, the battery operated and waterproof DDCWP. They also produce the highly efficient Precision Series spray nozzle.
The K-Rain Corporation
It’s not often you find a company started by a rocket scientist. This one is. It was founded 1974 by Carl Kah, a former manager of the U.S. Air Force’s reusable rocket engine program. According to Carl, Thespace program set an example for all of us in business to follow. There is always something that needs to be improved. K-Rain keeps improving, having over 90 patents so far, including one for the Indexing valve, a Kah invention that reduces the need for five valves down to one. Their continuing quest for improvement enables them to bring quality products to market with prices noticeably lower than many of their competitors.
The DIG Corporation
DIG was founded in 1981 to do one thing and one thing only: provide efficient, cost effective low volume irrigation systems. Low volume is commonly known as drip or micro irrigation. That’s all they do and they are very good at it. They have anything you can think of for a drip system, whether it’s in your garden, your flower pots, under turf or in plant nurseries. From drip, spray, fog, mist and stream. They also provide the LEIT controllers. Powered by ambient light, LEIT controllers are much more sensitive than solar power, giving you more options for controller locations.
Cyber Rain Inc.
No other irrigation controller out there is as versatile, flexible, high-tech and just flat cool as the Cyber Rain Cloud controller. Need shade, order up a cloud, no problem! (sorry, couldn’t resist.) The Cyber-Rain Cloud controller does everything you can ask for and you control it from anywhere. Whip out your Android, iPhone or Blackberry phone, check your system performance, make changes and, instead of Zone 1 or Zone 4 you see a picture of the area. Why remember zone numbers when you can see what it covers? It checks the weather and automatically adjusts your irrigation schedule to match and, since Cyber-Rain uses the internet, weather updates are always free! Now folks, that’s pretty hard to beat.
In conclusion, every member of our team was drafted after careful consideration. We’re glad to have them and look forward to the upcoming series/bowl.
