AirDrain Sand Based Natural Turf Soccer Field Installed at Washington State University
Thru a research project conducted at Texas A&M, it was concluded that you can significantly reduce your irrigation needs using AirField Systems AirDrain. 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.
The data from the research showed that the AirField’s Agronomic Natural Grass System and drainage profile provided between one to three more days of plant available water than a United States Golf Association recommended gravel and sand profile.
The AirDrain Natural Grass Sports field Drainage System has a unique ability no other system has in that it can flush the profile quickly and efficiently anytime its needed. And needs no special watering techniques.
This practice is particularly common where salt laden irrigation water is used and in areas along the East Coast, Gulf Coast, California coast, and Desert Southwest. Click here to see an article from the USGA on the benefits of flushing the profile.
