How does the system work
Dry clays that are capable of absorbing water, if unconfined, will increase in
volume in an amount proportional to the amount of water absorbed. However, the
amount of water absorbed and the degree of expansiveness for particular types
of clay are dependent on many variable and interrelated factors that have not
been, and probably cannot be, formulated in such terms as to be applicable to
all possible combinations that exists in nature.

The world's most advanced continuous self-cleaning, pressure
compensating dripperline.

Techline's Self-Cleaning, Pressure
Compensating Dripper is a fully self-contained unit molded to the interior wall
of the dripper tubing itself. Both tubing and dripper housing are manufactured
from high quality synthetic elastomers to withstand chemicals and fertilizers.
As shown at left, Techline is continuously self-cleaning during operation, not
just at the beginning and end of a cycle. The result is dependable, clog free
operation, year after year.

The goal of foundation watering is to keep the water content of the soil
under your foundation as constant as possible. Since you can't keep out
the rain, the thing to do is keep the soils reasonably damp during dry periods.
The more trees and large shrubs that you have, the harder this is to do. Why,
because big plants have big thirsts.
The best way to water your foundation is with a specially designed foundation
watering system. These systems are made of techline pressure compensating
drippers that are buried in the ground around the perimeter of your foundation.
A typical home will have a minimum of 4 zones, each with its own water line and
control valve. For an average home, it costs from $3,000 to $6,000 to install a
foundation watering system.
