For 65 years, Superb Sprinkler Service has been keeping everything from residential flowerbeds to large sports fields from being thirsty.

S ole owner Graham Petrie says the in Manitoba. “I have been in the industry for eight years now and started working while I was in university,” Petrie says. “I continued in the industry because I enjoy being outside and had always wanted to own a business since I started studying economics — so when the opportunity came up to purchase company came to life in 1957 and is the longest serving sprinkler business the business, it was an easy decision.” The Headingly-based company has installed more than 3,000 residential and commercial irrigation systems in Winnipeg and surrounding areas since its inception, an accomplishment owner Petrie says he and his team are extremely proud of. “We pride ourselves on delivering a high level of customer service that begins from the moment we are contacted to provide an estimate,” Petrie says. “It doesn’t end once the work has been completed. We continue

to be there for our clients even after their irrigation system has been installed.” Petrie says the way grass, shrubs and flowers get their necessary drink of H 2 O has evolved significantly over the years with budding technology. Superb Sprinkler Service relies on industry-lead- ing software to plan irrigation zones based on water supply and pressure. “We use highly efficient and smart watering systems from controllers to heads and design,” he says. “We pride ourselves on using the most advanced technology in the industry as water is becoming only more valuable of a resource — in addition to the time savings it can afford home- owners while offering a greener and more beautiful property.” With the most powerful Wi-Fi irriga- tion control solution on the market and water-efficient emitters, Petrie says going this route is extremely friendly to the envi- ronment and, in the long run, has a positive impact on the pocketbook.
