Giving Turf the Breath of LifeThe Turf Jet range has been developed with many different industries in mind, but it’s birth came about from industry specialist consultation surrounding golf courses.

The areas we set out to provide assistance was:

Frost management – prevention & dispersion. Humidity management – disperse humidity and improve air-

flow. Dampness management – increase natural evaporation. Disease management – reduce humidity, dampness and

prevent excess frost by increasing air flow can help keep diseases and rot from setting in.

Plant health – gentle air flow has been known to strengthen and improve grass and other plants health.

Safer working & play environment – by reducing dampness and slippery surfaces by evaporating the excess surface moisture through air flow.

Let’s take a look at Plant health or more specific “Turf Health”

Golf Greens & Turf HealthFor golf greens to stay in tip top conditions for best game play they need constant attention to thrive. They need plenty of sun, water, good soil and a great starting turf however, this is often not enough to guarantee long term greens.

Areas such as Humidity, heat stroke, soggy, shade, frost, pests and diseases all have a critical impact and can vary right across a gold course with each hole requiring different management methods.

To manage turf, you often have to treat above and below the turf line for greater success.

Turf Jet – Above the turfThe Turf Jet was designed to keep airflow across the top of a golf green using Super Lamina Flow Technology coupled with airwave technology to oscillate the throw of air from side to side to maximise greater area coverage and mimicking natures natural wind movement. and can assist:

Help prevent frost build up & its dissipation. Dissipate humid micro-climates through air-flow. As part of a disease preventative plan. Can significantly assist in reducing the use of chemicals

required in turf management. The natural evaporation process of excess water across

turf canopy and plant foliage and the space above and surrounding it.

Hydronic System – Below the TurfTurf management under the green helps to provide the turf with optimum growing conditions. Providing ground warmth during the cooler months, or in a shady nook or provide cooling over the summers direct sun’s rays or both.

The Turf Jet Hydronic System consists of:

Toyesi reverse-cycle heater-chiller heat pump Water pump(s). Supply pipes & network of flexi-tube Water holding tank – above ground or submerged for

insulation and more visually pleasing application. Temperature monitoring equipment Power and water supply will be required.

The Hydronic system can provide heating or cooling to maintain ideal root zone temperatures by pumping warm or cool water from the holding tank to the green via supply pipes. The water then circulates under the roots of the green through a network of flexi-tubing and finally back to the holding tank.

Advantages of a Hydronic SystemBy providing both heat and/or cooling to your greens you can address a lot of issues including:

Optimising turf growing conditions. Frost management. Turf Heat-Stroke management. Reduced patchy green conditions Smooths out and provides a uniform growing

conditions across the green playing surface. Reduce plant stress. Reduce the needs for chemical plant management.

Turf, Lawn StressWhen any living plant is subject to long term stress they become susceptible to diseases and pests, especially areas that are prone to constant under foot damage, dryness, frost, humid or damp conditions are at a higher risk.

Care should be taken to not allow long term, and sometimes non-reparable, damage to set in. It only takes a few weeks or even few days to ruin an entire crop or bring an expensive golf course to the look of being un-kept & unloved.
