Product description
A lot of water is needed in equestrian sports, including for the footing. Without the correct moisture content, the riding surface cannot perform to its full potential.
Various systems are currently available for system operators, including mobile sprinklers, surface sprinklers and ebb and flow floors.
During irrigation “from above”, the area can only be used to a very limited extent at best. Moisture damage in the riding arena or damage to obstacles etc. due to surface irrigation is often unavoidable.
An ebb and flow floor can become increasingly in need of maintenance over the period of use, and leaks in the expensive foil seals cannot always be avoided.
The TE40 aqua is a new addition to the ECORASTER® family. It is installed as usual as a separating layer in the riding arena, but offers protected guides for drip pipes. This allows the footing to be watered from below, which is quick and saves up to 40% water.
If desired, irrigation can be controlled manually or using moisture sensors and an app.
You have the choice: as a complete system with the know-how of us and our experienced irrigation partner or for the installation of your own pipes.
Simple installation: During installation, a fleece is rolled out onto the prepared substructure and the drip pipes are laid on top as branch lines. The TE40 aqua is laid on top using the usual ECORASTER® installation method, ensuring that the drip pipes are correctly routed. For normal riding surfaces, one drip tube per ECORASTER® is sufficient, i.e. a distance of approx. 333 mm. On uneven surfaces where there is a risk of the drip tube falling downwards out of the guide, extra support can be provided with the precisely fitting clips. Once the pipes have been laid, they are connected as planned. The TE40 aqua is then filled with sand and covered with the footing. The capillary effect draws the water upwards and ensures even distribution.
Thanks to the individual design, shady areas or very sunny areas can be watered differently from each other.
Incidentally, the TE40 aqua has a larger contact surface compared to the classic TE40 and is therefore also suitable for laying on poor, soft or only slightly substructure. Laying directly on the lawn without a substructure? Talk to us.
