Golf Course Irrigation and Pond Treatment

Seair Inc. offers a number of systems that act as a stand-alone portable treatment solutions, which allow golf courses to use ozone gas to improve the quality of their pond and irrigation water.   Golf courses are increasingly required to use effluent as their source for irrigation water.

 Golf course effluent used for irrigation water is not always pure, clean water, and may sit in holding ponds for days before it is used on the course.   These ponds are breeding grounds for bacteria, viruses, cysts and fungus.   When this water is applied to turf it affects the health of grass, as well as the golfers.  

Ozone applied to the irrigation water using the Seair diffusion system reduces or completely removes pathogens and unwanted organic matter.   This is possible as an inline process because the Seair system creates a very stable 5 micron bubble which allows for the total utilization of ozone.  Ozonated water will kill algae or fungus, while having a little or no impact on the grass.   Persistent algal or fungal growths on turf grass traditionally involve the use of algaecides or fungicides that are not environmentally friendly, and may also be harmful to the golfers.   Adding ozone to irrigation water can reduce or eliminate the need to use and store these chemicals.

 Chemical fertilizers added to the golf course are also a very large expense.   By facilitating root growth and aerobic microbial activity, Seair's oxygen diffusion system helps maintain a balanced turf/soil system and has the potential to reduce fertilizer requirements in the long run.

Along with oxygen and nutrients, pH plays a significant role in turf health.   High pH soils promote unfavourable bacterial growth, whereas excessively low pH promotes fungal growth.   For turf to fend off disease, promote healthy growth and to maintain a proper soil structure, a constant pH, suited to the region, should be employed.   Seair has the ability to dissolve CO 2 gas, a very inexpensive product, into the irrigation water at very high efficiency.   Effectively adjusting the pH for optimal grass health.

Benefits of ozonation also extend beyond sterilization and turf health; ozone will also remove any unpleasant odours from the irrigation water or pond without the residual odour associated with chlorine use.   All ozone and oxygen gasses are generated on site, and therefore eliminate the need for chemical storage and transport.  

The Seair system can incorporate a single gas, two gasses or all three gasses in a single step. Each golf course is unique and as such the solution for each will be different.  Seair technology is adaptable and can be customized to meet the needs of any golf course.
