Simplified Irrigation Design

I read this book to get ready to take my Texas Irrigation License exam. It explained how to properly install a professional quality sprinkler system in an easy to read and understand format. This book goes into detail about how to layout the sprinkler heads, how to pipe it all together, and how all the parts work together. I have read many irrigation books...This was the best book to get a good understanding of sprinkler systems without becoming an expert in the field of irrigation. Perfect for the do it yourself homeowner or individual wanting to get into the irrigation industry. I now have my license and highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn to install a good sprinkler system without having to read an irrigation reference manual.

To pass the pipe fitter test

This resource is excellent. Extreme detail, great illustrations, and information that is not provided by other typical irrigation books you'll find at Home Depot. I'm a landscape designer and highly recommend this resource.

Very, very basic stuff. Mixed in with stuff you would never use in the field. Not to mention the product that is being used as examples hasn't been mainstream since the 80's. You would think that they would use the Industry standards.

this book was bought for a test i needed to take. it taught me everything i need to know.

Good handbook ever.

perfect, just what i needed, condition was as expected

I have some basic knowledge of irrigation and right off the bat I was irritated with the way the chapters where laid out. He starts right in with sprinkler head performance and layout before going into the explanation of irrigation, and the basic principles of hydraulics that I believe should be the foundation what you learn first before anything else. The other thing that was that for the money I don't believe it was worth it maybe more like $20-25. Most of the information you can find on the internet searches. But, all in all it was a very easy reading book that did help me fill some holes in my irrigation knowledge.

O livro é antigo. Hoje existe tecnologia bem melhor.

Good reference guide, an updated irrigation design, install guide is definitely needed
