EPIC System™

The EPIC system is a water management system, which combines the world's most efficient irrigation and drainage system through non-pressurized, gravity driven, capillary physics of washed sand via direct interface of the EPIC subsurface pipe that never clogs.

A closer look at how the system works

The EPIC System uses the properties of capillary attraction to provide a system of sub-surface irrigation and drainage. This irrigation system consumes 55% - 85% less water than traditional surface or drip irrigation systems. Any stormwater surge or runoff is retained and held in the system for re-use or slowly released in a controlled manner. The EPIC System can be incorporated in sustainable designs which significantly reduces, and in some cases eliminates, the need for any fresh water source in irrigation. Research has shown that the EPIC System provides better turf quality while reducing irrigation needs by as much as 85% when compared to conventional irrigation methods
