AirDrain Agronomic Natural Turf  Drainage – What drains better than Air?

Golf Course Drainage – Greens, Bunkers, Tee Boxes and Fairways

Thru a research project conducted at Texas A&M, it was concluded that you can 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 Systems Agronomic Natural Turf Drainage profile provided up to three more days of plant available water than a United States Golf Association recommended gravel and sand profile.

AirDrain also brings an agronomics to the turf putting it in the best possible scenario to be healthy and strong in any sand profile.

Benefits of an AirField System Golf Course Drainage Design include:

Up to 3 more days of plant available water stored in the root zone (depending on climate)

Significantly reduces daily irrigation needs (as told to us by our customers)

Healthier turf / Stronger root system (as told to us by our customers)

100% Vertical Drainage under the entire playing surface

AirDrain is a 100% recycled copolymer with the impact modifier “metallocene” qualifying it as a “No Break” plastic

Helps eliminate standing water / Simplifies maintenance (as told to us by our customers)

Minimal site disturbance / Far less excavation and disposal

Several Installation days can be over a gravel installation

Compact shipping that reduces overall storage and transportation costs
