1 Irrigation Equipment That Works Hard to Save You Time and Money

2 Technology at Work Technology has changed our world. We can do just about everything better, faster, and with more efficiency than ever before. Baseline is an industry leader in commercial irrigation control systems that leverages the latest technology that allow landscape managers to take care of more sites with fewer resources, maintain healthy landscapes with less water, and spend less money on the equipment to make it all happen. We are confident that we can save you money in three specific areas: Equipment Cost Savings We re not just talking about what it costs to buy a controller. For what it costs to repair existing old equipment, you may be able to leverage existing wires and still upgrade to the latest technology and have money left over. Operational Savings Baseline s systems are simple to use and require less hands-on adjustment than older systems. Internet connectivity means fewer trips to a site and jobs that used to require two people can now be done with one. The bottom line you can do more with less. Water Savings Baseline s patented smart technologies and soil moisture sensors can significantly reduce water waste and materially improve the quality of a landscape. With average water savings of 62%, we can show you how to use less water and still have a healthy landscape.

3 Ease of use compared to programming a Maxi-Com type system, Baseline is just plain fun. As for the water savings simply put, you only water when the plant needs it. I know of no other system that is as water efficient. Robb Willie, Grounds Supervisor Washington County Schools, Utah Equipment Cost Savings Chances are your existing irrigation equipment is aging. In fact, you may even have a system that has been, or will soon be discontinued. You may also be spending hundreds or thousands of dollars per year just to keep a site operational. Upgrade your system one controller at a time for less than you may be spending just to repair your existing system. Upgrading to a Baseline controller is easy because existing wires can be reused. It can be as easy as taking the old controller off the wall and replacing it with a Baseline controller. After upgrading to a Baseline controller, you ll also gain the ability to leverage the latest technologies like the Internet and soil moisture sensors, without pulling new wire. If you are a central control user, Baseline has even more ways to save you money. Every Baseline controller comes standard with an Ethernet port, no additional equipment required. If an Ethernet connection isn t available at the installation site, other communication options are available and very competitively priced. Plus, Baseline s innovative cloud-based central control platform is priced to scale at your pace. You don t need to replace every controller at the same time upgrade one controller at a time and continue using your existing equipment until you are ready to switch.

4 Operational Savings With Baseline s innovative and powerful central control solution, BaseManager, not only can you remotely access the controller to make programming changes, but you also have the ability to remotely control the site with a tablet or smart phone. This allows jobs that used to require two staff members to now be done by one. With Baseline s Mobile Access, your crew can use their smart phones as remote controls while they are in the field. Baseline s systems are designed to efficiently manage the complexity that is inherent in managing a school district or parks department. For example, a Baseline controller will automatically detect a mainline break and stop irrigation to prevent excessive water loss. Then, any staff members who are assigned to the site will receive alerts via text message or . These and other alerts allow landscape managers to make important decisions about how to allocate personnel resources and manage what s really important in the most efficient way possible. Baseline could save a department with 50 parks an average of nearly $30,000 per year just by reducing the number of trips to each park. BaseManager gives a real-time view of what s happening at each property. Interactive maps show a bird s-eye view of what zones are watering, what solenoid has failed and more. BaseManager s reports give you detailed information about the watering events for each property. With BaseManager, the cost-saving information is in your hands.

5 Water Savings The EPA estimates that half of the water that is used on a landscape is wasted. Soil moisture sensors can help prevent much of that waste. Baseline is the world leader in soil moisture sensor technology. Because soil moisture sensors measure what is happening in the root zone of the plant, where it really matters, they allow the controllers to make the smartest possible irrigation decisions. This means that plants only get watered when they need it, and this can result in savings as much as 62%. Baseline Soil Moisture Sensor Baseline s patented soil moisture sensors can help you save a significant amount of water. They work better than any weather station. We re like every other city. We re short on staff. We thought switching to central control with Baseline would alleviate some of those problems. Now it s easy. I come in every morning and the first thing I do is log on and see what all the controllers did the night before. We chose Baseline over other systems because it is web based. Anywhere you can log on the Internet, you can control your irrigation system, and we all have smart phones. Clayton Litton, Parks Superintendent Town of Flower Mound, Texas
