Reticulation Installation Project Beeliar

About Beeliar

This exciting project was designed to give good water pressure to a home reticulation system in Beeliar.

The pressure in this particular part of Beeliar was some of the worst we’ve seen and meant that designing a decent reticulation system was going to be a challenge! We came up with the idea of filling a water tank and pumping the water from there with a decent pressure pump; achieving decent pressure to design this system properly. The problem was that none of the tanks we located fitted into the owners landscape plans and all of them were going to be an eye sore.

This is when we decided to use a Reece Irrigation Graf Platin Underground Tank and install it underneath the owners back lawn.

Here is the plan we prepared for the project: Subsurface tank plan

The unique design of this underground tank allows it to be installed anywhere, even under driveways, and it is fully trafficable. The owners wanted to catch rainwater as well and use it for their garden from the tank.

As an average garden will easily use over 50,000L over summer, this 5,000L tank will not do the job on its own. We came up with a plan to use a combination of rainwater and mains water. We set up a float which would keep the tank two thirds full at all times from the water mains approx. 3000L and then we left the rest of the tank free for rainwater. We hooked into the storm water going to a soakwell and plumbed it into the Graf Tank. We then put the overflow and emergency overflow from the Graf tank into two soakwells on the property.

We installed a submersible pump and pressure control unit with a master valve attached and used this set up to pump the water the to the appropriate solenoid. The reticulation used consisted of Waterwise MP Rotators and subsurface driplines. We used a Weathermatic controller along with a Weathermatic weather station, which is a weather based control system using smart technology to deliver maximum water savings.

Ask us about this system – it is far more advanced than just using a rain sensor and switching off your retic for the winter. Our clients have a very water efficient system with great pressure which suits their landscaping needs!

I used Luke’s Landscaping to provide an overhaul of my front lawn with the task to reduce the amount of lawn and increase the low maintenance area including a rock feature. Also, they were used to provide a major landscaping overhaul for my Daughter’s back garden including lawns, garden beds and low water usage reticulation. All work was carried out within the agreed time schedule. The staff are very accommodating and pleasant to deal with. The work completed with efficiency, and all aspects were well-coordinated. The materials used were of a good quality that enhances the finished product.My daughter and I are very pleased with results.

I take this opportunity to thank you for a job well done. This is the second time I have used your services. Not only because you did such a good, clean and efficient job, but also the fact you responded to my inquiry in a professional and timely manner unlike many others who I had to recall and I still couldn’t get any response. I would also like to thank your staff who worked diligently until the job was done to our satisfaction particularly giving my wife and myself peace of mind. Therefore, I will always recommend your services to any family or friends, in fact if you need to send any prospective clients to view our garden feel free to do so. If you require any verbal reference feel free to have your client contact me. We wish you all the success in the future with your business.

I have used Luke’s Landscaping to do a major overhaul to the landscaping at my house and lots of other makeovers at my rental properties in the last three years. The professional service, fantastic results and the quick turnaround has meant that Luke is the first guy I call for my landscaping needs. I have been thrilled with the results and pleased with the attention to detail. I am happy to recommend this business.

Our front yard in Karrinyup was completely transformed in March 2015. In just one week, the team completed the job of removing what was there, replaced the topsoil, installed the reticulation and mulched with native plants. Four months on we are still so impressed with the job and delighted that we used Luke’s Landscaping. Highly recommended!
