Flowguard^® for Landscape Architects, Irrigation Designers, Engineers and Consultants

Specify Flowguard^®and increase client satisfaction. Boost the owner’s profitability…all this while conserving energy and water resources.

"Please let everyone know that Flowguard is a huge success and the property owners are very pleased with the results...they are saving thousands of dollars on energy and water bills."
Irrigation Consultant, Orlando

Flowguard^® delivers a sustainable, practical irrigation design with remote management capacity.

Flowguard protected landscapes are robust, healthy and sustainable. The best value for the owner.
Flowguard assures an attractive landscape. Automatic email alerts when there is a problem, remote Internet access and control.
Flowguard reduces operating costs, wasteful energy and water use.
Flowguard reduces the total cost of ownership. Sustain a healthy landscape and minimize irrigation failures.
Flowguard projects reap increased profits while conserving energy, water and labor.

“We avoided a disaster. The email alerted us to a problem as it was happening. A soon to be flooded parking lot on a busy shopping weekend was avoided by the remote shut down feature."
Florida School District Irrigation Manager

Conserve

Eliminate Fines and Project delays for Exceeding Permitted Use: proactive automated email alerts warn when water usage nears the limits of permitted usage and pump system automatically shuts down when water usage limits are exceeded
Demonstrate Environmental Responsibility: Eliminate Unnecessary Water Consumption by 10-40%
Water window scheduling feature assures water is off as required by local authorities.
Reduce water losses from main line and valve leaks
Automatic Water Usage Reports…Click, Print and Email: Automatic water usage reports are easily printed from any computer with internet access
Magnetic flow meter assures accurate reporting and lower flow meter calibration cost
Automatic Control and maintenance of Reservoir Water Elevation Levels
Automated control of multiple permitted water sources

Advanced Technology

Irrigation telemetry technologies have been used for decades to enable the programming monitoring and modifying the operation of irrigation systems from a remote location.
The secure Internet based software and wireless cellular communication of Flowguard combined with these advanced irrigation tehnologies deliver a powerful synergy.
There are many useful applications of irrigation telemetry technologies …. modifying the irrigation system operation and irrigation run times in response to conditions in the system or other such influences such as weather, temperature, soil moisture, etc. have saved millions of dollars. Advanced irrigation controllers detect leaks, identify broken valves and turn on and off other electrically controlled features such as lighting and fountains.
Add the Flowguard and receive automatic email alerts and alarms via wireless cellular technology,
Use Flowguard’s diagnostic tools of pressure and flow graphs to identify root causes of field problems

Remote Supervision

Remote visibility and supervision of irrigation maintenance performance
Manager can easily document and confirm vendor performance without constant site inspections
Water window scheduling feature assures water is off during “non watering” days as required by local authorities.
Act on proactive e-mail alerts and alarms before residents can observe and report problems
Validates the results of costs for ongoing maintenance

Sustainable

Watering in accordance with designed coverage minimizes stress and loss of landscape plantings
Irrigation water availability in excess of 95% of the required time

Energy Miser

Water window feature reduces run hours and pump cycling to minimize electricity use
Accurate flow control achieves best pump efficiency and conserves electricity use
Reduced pump cycling means fewer main line and valve failures
Reduced run hours and pump cycling eliminates premature pump station failures

Budget-Wise

Use informative proactive e-mail alerts to detect and correct problems early
Remote supervision of irrigation system performance; reduce field inspections
Water window feature reduces run hours and damaging pump cycling
Reduce need for field diagnosis to determine root cause analysis of problems

Turn Over Simplified

Document irrigation system performance history
Document water usage history
Water window scheduling feature assures water is off during “non watering” days as required by local authorities
Document preventative maintenance and minimize warranty claims

Flexible

Optional control using soil moisture management
Monitor chloride concentration in water source by using optional sensor
Automatic Control and maintenance of Reservoir Water Elevation Levels
Automated control of multiple permitted water sources
Integrated remote management of any water source: reclaimed, potable booster, any point of connection

Conserve

Demonstrate water conservation with use of email alerts, water window and water budgets
Water window scheduling feature assures water is turned off as required by local regulations
Budget feature assures water usage complies with water use permit limits
High accuracy and low maintenance of magnetic flow meter (flow) and pressure transducer (pressure)
Automatic water usage reports and archived history for submission to regulatory authorities

Proactive

Email alerts provide early response and descriptive data required for targeted irrigation service
Call for corrective maintenance before stress damage can occur

Flexibility

Optional control using soil moisture management
Monitor chloride concentration in water source by using optional sensor
Automatic Control, maintenance and graphing of Reservoir Water Elevation Levels
Automated control of multiple permitted water sources
Integrated remote management of any water source: reclaimed, stormwater, well, surface water, potable booster, or any point of connection
