Valley Linears & Pivots
Valley Irrigation is the leader in Linear (straight line) and Pivot (circular) irrigation systems for large field coverage with minimal to zero “touch” applications. These systems ensure full coverage of your acreage with reduced water loss from evaporation due to the overhead, “spray down” design. Many of the Valley systems seen throughout the Northwest were designed and installed by Ernst.
Two-wheel linear systems are a cost-effective way of covering smaller fields with a width of up to 1300 feet. A two wheel system can pull 400 feet of 4 inch hose.
The top-of-the-line Rainger, 4-wheel systems can cover fields as large as 1500 acres. The Rainger, 4-wheel system can pull up to 600 feet of 4 inch hose.
Pivot systems are ideal for covering circular areas, and offer a simpler approach to covering a large area with a permanently installed central tower. In case you were wondering, you can cover a square area with a pivot system. Automatic arm extensions can be programmed to reach out into those corners when travelling.
We can help you decide which type or model of Valley System is best for your application with a design consultation.
