Just Screw 'Em In: Instant Water Savings with Toro Precision Nozzles
Experience the benefits of this award winning product
Now you can help your customers achieve instant water savings just by changing their spray nozzles. With Toro's new Precision Series Spray Nozzles you'll get increased efficiency over standard spray heads. They lower precipitation rates, which conserves
water and reduces irrigation costs.
The patented Toro H2O Chip
Technology - Hyper-streams of oscillating water, moving at
Hyper-frequencies (200 cycles per second) deliver a low, but
effective precipitation rate of one inch per hour. The oscillating pattern, invisible to
the naked eye and only seen by strobe light illumination, delivers
lower flow rates than competitive spray nozzles with better overall
irrigation efficiency, reduced misting, and superior edge definition.
They can apply water precisely to irrigation zones with reduced risk of
saturation or run-off.
With 54 different radius and arc
options, they provide the most complete line of spray nozzles. It's no wonder they were named "New Product of
the Year for Landscape" at the Irrigation Association's Show
in Anaheim, CA.
Pick up a few at your nearest Urban Farmer Store location and start marketing them as a valuable upgrade for your existing accounts. It's the fastest way to help your customers lower water use.
