While a maintenance program will extend the life of an irrigation system; pumps, valves, emitters, controllers, and pipes wear and deteriorate over time.

Continual analysis, new components, and regular checks are required to ensure commercial viability is maintained.

Netafim Australia offers a System Review Service through its Technical Services Division, in conjunction with its dealers. This services was introduced by demand from clients to review and upgrade existing irrigation systems.

It is a cost efficient and effective method of comprehensively reviewing a system, which has been pioneered by Netafim through extensive research and trials of the service.

  • Provides information on the current state of the irrigation system and on farm maintenance programs
  • Ensures the irrigation system is operating as it should be, in order to achieve the best commercial productivity

System Review Process
A System Review involves the following process:
