Premium Drip Irrigation & Smart Watering Solutions

At McKay Irrigation Systems, we specialize in installing high-performance, water-efficient irrigation systems designed for long-term reliability. Our approach prioritizes cutting-edge technology, smart water management, and precision installation to keep landscapes thriving while conserving water.

Netafim Techline CV Drip Irrigation

We use Netafim Techline CV, the industry leader in drip irrigation innovation. Unlike traditional black polyethylene dripline, where emitters are manually punched in (leading to frequent clogging and leaks), Netafim Techline CV integrates the emitter directly into the tubing’s inner wall.

Why Choose Netafim Techline CV?

✔️ Built-In Check Valve: Prevents water from draining out after shutdown, maintaining consistent water delivery.
✔️ Clog & Leak Prevention: Internal emitter design protects against snapping, leaking, and clogging, which are common with traditional dripline systems.
✔️ Sustainable & Durable: Made with post-consumer recycled polyethylene, ensuring both efficiency and environmental responsibility.
✔️ Precision Watering: Delivers water directly to the root zone, reducing runoff, evaporation, and wasted water.

We custom-design each installation to fit the unique needs of your landscape, ensuring optimal water distribution and efficiency.

High-Efficiency Spray Nozzles

For areas where spray irrigation is the best solution, we install top-tier spray nozzles designed for uniform coverage and maximum efficiency.

We Use Only the Best Spray Components:

✅ Hunter Pro-Spray Bodies & RainBird 1800 Series Spray Bodies – Built with UV-resistant plastic, corrosion-resistant stainless steel for durability with built in pressure regulation
✅ Hunter MP Rotator Nozzles – A game-changer in irrigation efficiency. These multi-trajectory rotating streamsapply water slowly and evenly, allowing the soil to absorb moisture without runoff.
✅ Rain Bird HE-VAN Nozzles – Provide uniform water distribution and wind-resistant droplets, reducing misting and evaporation.

💡 Why This Matters: Accurate, head-to-head spray coverage prevents dry spots and water waste, making our spray irrigation system the most efficient in the Bay Area.

Pressure Regulation and Filtration

Zurn Wilkins 3/4" 600XL Pressure Reducing Valve

To maintain optimal water pressure and protect your irrigation system, we install the Zurn Wilkins 3/4" 600XL Pressure Reducing Valve. This valve is designed to reduce high inlet pressure to a lower, more manageable outlet pressure, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your system. Its durable construction handles sandy, debris-laden water systems, making it suitable for residential and commercial applications.

Amiad Tagline Y-Filter with Flush Valve

Proper filtration is crucial to prevent debris from clogging your irrigation components. The Amiad Tagline Y-Filter is equipped with a flush valve, allowing for easy cleaning and maintenance. This filter effectively removes particles from the water, safeguarding the entire irrigation system and promoting consistent performance.

Irrigation Valves

Irritrol 311A Irrigation Valve

For reliable control of water flow to various zones, we utilize the Irritrol 311A Irrigation Valve. Known for its durability and precise operation, this valve ensures that each area of your landscape receives the appropriate amount of water, enhancing overall system efficiency.

Weathermatic Black Bullet Master and Irrigation Valve

To manage water distribution effectively, we incorporate the Weathermatic Black Bullet Master and Irrigation Valve. This valve is designed for high performance and longevity, providing dependable operation across diverse irrigation needs.

Hydrawise Smart Controller

Intelligent Irrigation at Your Fingertips

Watering only when needed is the key to saving water and maintaining a healthy landscape. That’s why we install the Hunter Pro HC Hydrawise Controller, the most advanced smart irrigation controller on the market today.

What Makes Hydrawise the Best Smart Controller?

✔️ Predictive Watering™ Technology: Adjusts watering schedules based on real-time, internet-sourced weather data.
✔️ Smart Decision-Making: Uses historical and forecasted weather data to fine-tune irrigation, preventing overwatering and water waste.
✔️ User-Friendly & Powerful: Simple app-based controls, yet sophisticated enough to make complex water management decisions automatically.
✔️ EPA WaterSense Approved: Meets high-efficiency irrigation standards, reducing water consumption and lowering your utility bills.

💡 Many so-called “smart controllers” exist on the market today, but the Hydrawise system is the most comprehensive, reliable, and user-friendly solution available.

Hunter HC Flow Meter – Real-Time Water Monitoring & Leak Detection

We integrate Hunter HC Flow Meters with Hydrawise smart controllers to provide real-time flow monitoring and leak detection.

Why Add a Flow Meter?

✅ Prevents Water Waste: Instantly detects leaks or excessive water usage.
✅ Sends Alerts: Get high- and low-flow notifications directly to your phone or email.
✅ Tracks Water Usage: Provides detailed reports on water use per zone and overall system flow.
✅ Protects Your Landscape: Ensures plants receive the right amount of water while preventing irrigation failures.
