Pump rainwater efficiently
Gardena’s range of pumps, pump accessories and watering controls will help you efficiently use your rainwater tank to quench your garden’s thirst.
From the original leak free connectors through to water pressure controls, soil moisture sensors and timers with a handy calendar function, Gardena’s intelligent products allow you to manage your watering and nurture your garden while observing your local water restrictions or guidelines.
World renowned for their innovative water saving features, Gardena’s water management solutions are easy to install and operate. At a time when every drop is precious, transporting water efficiently and reliably is vital to any responsible gardener’s long term water wise plans.
Dan Carman, General Manager, Husqvarna Consumer Outdoor Products said, “Our Gardena range encompasses the very latest technological advances and innovative features to make responsible water management and garden maintenance hassle free.
“With Gardena products, all garden lovers can continue to enjoy their garden while doing their bit to manage water wisely this summer.”
Here are a few examples of what the innovative range includes:
The Gardena Garden Pump 3000/3 Jet and Gardena Pump 3000/4 Jet are lightweight, powerful and user friendly with high suction and pressure performance. Perfect for watering plants, increasing water pressure and pumping rainwater.
The Electronic Pressure Pump 4000/4 Electronic Plus makes use of non-potable water for irrigation or domestic use. This pump has an integrated high volume; fine meshed filter and a backflow preventer to ensure reduced re-suction time. An inbuilt electronic manometric switch automatically turns the pump on when water is required and then off again when it is not.
Pumps that come with thermal overload switches to ensure safety and longevity of use. For guaranteed user safety all Gardena pumps are approved and certified to the highest available AS/NZS standard.
Timer accessories from a basic two-hour dial timer to suit most applications through to the modern attractive design of the Gardena Watering Computer C1030 with Calendar Function that is able to water up to 6 times a day. The watering start time and duration can be programmed individually and therefore, the Water Computer is compliant to different water restriction requirements.
The Gardena soil moisture sensor electronically measures temperature differences in soil. This enables you to work out the desired moisture level for your soil which can be set by the control knob.This sensor will help you decide when your garden needs water, therefore avoiding unnecessary watering. This is ideal for use in conjunction with the Gardena water computers, water timers, irrigation control system. thanks for sending the revised release.
Water tight efficiency engineered into every product to guarantee no leaks in all Gardena’s products.
Once your complete watering solution is installed, it is important to undertake a responsible approach to gardeningover summer. To help, the expert Gardena team has compiled this list of their top ten water wise management tips:
1. Use a timer with your sprinkler – a forgotten sprinkler can waste in excess of 1000 litres per hour according to the Queensland Local Government Water Corporation.
2. Aerate the soil so that water can be absorbed more easily.
3. Good mulch can prevent up to 73% evaporation loss and therefore its use is a cheap, easy and effective water saving technique. Mulching the soil surface traps moisture by preventing excessive run off and restricting weed growth. Another tip from Queensland Local Government Water Corporation.
4. Remove as many weeds as possible. They compete with your plants for water and nutrients.
5. Toughen up your plants by watering them only when the soil dries out. Install a soil moisture sensor, which will alert you when soil moisture falls below a certain level.
6. Dig a small trench around trees to give water a chance to soak in, thus reducing water loss due to run off.
7. Water your pot plants by dunking each of them individually into a bucket of water. This will save on water and, at the same time, make sure your pot plants get a thorough drink.
8. Water during the cooler parts of the day to minimise from the effects of evaporation.
9. Water the roots and not the leaves, and ensure that the soil is deeply saturated. An occasional thorough soaking allows the soil to develop strong deep roots and thus greater drought tolerance.
10. Help the lawn through dry spells by mowing less closely and leaving the clippings on the surface to aid moisture retention. Grass is resilient and will soon recover from the effects of drought, so unless it’s a new lawn, watering is not really worthwhile.
