Drought Free Irrigation (DFI) is a
family owned irrigation company serving northeastern MA and southern
NH. Dan Donahue is the primary
owner. He has been in the irrigation field since 1991 and
has been a “Certified Irrigation Contractor” by the
Irrigation Association of New England since 2004. He has almost
2 decades of experience designing, installing, trouble shooting
and servicing lawn sprinklers and irrigation systems throughout
the greater Boston and Merrimack Valley areas. His primary
focus has always been on customer service.
Since more than 90 percent of our new installation
are referrals, our main focus is on residential properties. However,
we have plenty of experience and are happy to install or service
commercial customers as well as athletic fields for towns and school
districts.
- Save water. No more forgetting you left the hose on.
- Save money. No more over watering. Water just the landscape
components needed.
- Save time. No more dragging hoses around the yard only to have
your lawn burn when you go on vacation. Irrigation is automatic.
The Installation process
After
you have received your free estimate, and have decided to use us
as your installation company, we will require a 15% deposit. We
will try to schedule our plumber to tie into your plumbing on the
same day that we will install the rest of your system. Depending
upon your current landscaping, the average residential installation
takes 1 day. We will install all of the pipe underground with a
Ditch Witch Pipe Puller. All of your zone valves will be buried
neatly in a few (depending upon how big your system is) valve boxes
in one area.
The sprinkler heads will be installed and adjusted, and your timer
will be set to water in the early morning hours to get the most
out of your water pressure and avoid water evaporation. You will
need to decide where you would like your automatic timer hung. The
garage or the cellar are the most common areas for the timer, but
keep in mind, it will need to plug into an electrical outlet. If
your house has town water and sewer, you should check with the water
department to see if they allow second meters. A second meter will
prevent you from being charged sewerage charges for water going
on your lawn.
