Rebates for Retrofit Nozzles

In previous independent testing in the U.S., FCI (Full Coverage Irrigation) Profile nozzles were shown to save golf courses a minimum of six percent of water use per year. FCI Profile nozzles have solid brass sprinkler nozzles and stainless steel outlets. They ensure more consistent coverage than factory-installed plastic nozzles, which can deteriorate over time.

American Golf Corp., in an effort to conserve thousands of gallons of water on southern California courses, is retrofitting sprinklers with efficient metal nozzles. The company is working with the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, which offers rebates to courses that switch to FCI Profile metal nozzles from plastic nozzles.

The FCI (Full Coverage Irrigation) Profile nozzles feature stainless steel orifices to increase distribution uniformity and save water, the company says. The nozzles are manufactured by Underhill International. American Golf manages more than 110 private, resort and daily fee courses in the U.S.
