Research conducted over 5 years at Texas A&M with the USGA. You can significantly reduce your irrigation needs with the AirDrain system.

The five year research project was jointly funded by the United States Golf Association and AirField Systems and was a collaborative effort between Texas A&M, AirField Systems, and the United States Golf Association.

Research data showed the AirDrain Agronomic Natural Grass Drainage System profile. Can provide up to 3 more days of plant-available water than the USGA recommended gravel and sand profile.

   The AirDrain Sports Field Drainage System has a unique ability no other system has: it can flush the profile quickly and efficiently anytime it’s needed.  

A common practice for salt-laden irrigation water along the East Coast, Gulf Coast, California coast, and Desert Southwest. The AirDrain system needs no special watering techniques.
