The final drain down.

The final drain down carried out for the winter on a large irrigation system in Penn, Surrey. The drain downs have been a little later this year, due to the mild weather.

TCR’s Service engineers have been kept busy over the past month draining down irrigation systems, for the winter months.

We recommend drain downs to the majority of our clients as it helps to reduce frost damage, which is caused by water sitting in the pipes over winter.

We will be contacting those same clients from the end of February onwards to arrange the start ups, so that they are ready for the spring/summer.

TCR are delighted to announce that we have two new team members.

Steve Craft, who has joined TCR as Internal Technical Advisor and Service Engineer. With a wealth of experience spanning over many years.

Freddie Zorzan, who is a qualified electrician and Service Engineer, who specialises in pumps, variable speed drives and control systems.

Both Steve and Freddie will be valuable members of TCR and have quickly slotted in with the team, we hope to have a long and happy association.

TCR engineers have been kept exceptionally busy over the last couple of months. Multiple installations, all on track and plenty of designs in the pipeline. Here’s hoping for another busy season!

TCR are on course for yet another busy season.

All departments are currently working flat out. We are receiving an unprecedented amount of inquiries for design and installation. Despite the pandemic, our service department is busier than ever, with new inquiries coming in daily.

All clients happy for our engineer’s to attend, once they have received the instructions implemented to keep both client and engineers safe.

The unprecedented weather in April and Covid-19 has made this time of the year even busier than usual. Our service engineers are busy starting up irrigation systems for the season and carrying out any repairs that have been caused by frost or vermin over the winter period. We recommend that all systems are drained down for the winter, to reduce frost damage particularly.

TCR are delighted to welcome Matt Hough as our new Operations Manager.

Matt comes from a Landscaping background and brings a wealth of relevant experience to TCR. Matt will run the service department along with numerous other duties related to Operations management.

He will be a valuable member of the team.

2018 Saw the introduction of the next generation nozzle design from Rain Bird, a welcome addition for garden watering systems!

The Rain Bird R-VAN rotary nozzles save more water and are easier to use than traditional spray head nozzles of similar performance, with its hand-adjustable arc and radius. They have anything from a 4m to 7.5m radius. The thick streams and large water droplets cut through the wind to deliver water where you want it.
