Innovative Solutions For The Golf Industry
Innovative Drain Technologies offers innovative solutions for the golf industry. IDT has developed a process that ensures internal drainage is working properly. By locating the drains using Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR), we can clear the lines of all sand, silt, sediment, or debris and reestablish 100% of the original flow capacity through the perforations. Essentially, our service provides you with a "no-dig" replacement of your drain lines.
Extend the Life of Your Bunkers and Greens
"Locating the drainage cleanout and performing a flush with a chemical tracker dye is a good practice to perform on all USGA greens, especially if drainage issues are suspected."
Common causes of drain system failure include:
- Sand, silt, rock, and other sediments buildup leading to blocked drain lines
- Turf, tree, shrub, and other types of invasive root infiltration leading to clogged drain lines and sealed perforations
- Crushed, separated, or cut drain lines from heavy equipment, renovations, or prior repairs
Poor Drainage Causes Problems
"Drainage has long been considered the single most important element of good quality putting greens, and more often than not, failure of putting green turf can be traced back to one or more factors related to excess moisture and the inability to get rid of it."
Failure of your drain system causes many problems:
- Hole closures, problem bunkers, and other interruptions in course play
- Turf disease and other moisture related problems for maintenance crews
- Unacceptable sub-ideal playing conditions for members and guests
- Lost revenues due to course closure
