More than a beautiful lawn

More time to enjoy your outdoor space.

Thoughtfully designed automatic irrigation takes everyday watering tasks off your hands and caters for the different needs of your garden. Comfort, technology and landscape design work beautifully together.

01 / TIME SAVED

More time to enjoy your garden.

Watering is managed through a central schedule, so you can spend less time handling hoses and sprinklers.

02 / PRECISION

Tailored watering for every area.

Lawns, planting beds and shrubs have different needs. We plan sprinkler coverage, drip lines and separate zones accordingly.

03 / PEACE OF MIND

Watering while you are away.

Scheduled irrigation continues while you are on holiday, with seasonal adjustments when needed.

04 / CONSIDERED WATER USE

Apply water more thoughtfully.

Well-planned zones and suitable controls can reduce unnecessary watering. Actual consumption depends on the installation.

Beautiful greenery, discreet equipment.

Pop-up sprinklers sit below lawn level when not in use, while drip lines blend into planted areas.

06 / SMART CONTROL

Easy to manage and adapt.

Depending on the equipment, app control, tailored schedules and rain sensors can be integrated. Existing systems may also be suitable for upgrades.

Our Philosophy

Great irrigation begins with experience.

Gartenoase is a family-run business built on a simple belief: excellent irrigation starts with careful design, skilled installation and personal advice.

Our experience goes back more than 20 years, rooted in practical work installing and maintaining irrigation systems. That knowledge continues to shape our approach.

From private gardens to sports grounds and larger landscaped areas, we consider every project individually and match the technology to the water supply and actual requirements.

01 / SMART IRRIGATION

Intelligent control. Thoughtful watering.

Modern irrigation does more than run at fixed times. Depending on the equipment, you can manage schedules by app, control areas separately and integrate suitable weather or rain sensors.

  • Wi-Fi and app control where technically compatible
  • Tailored irrigation zones for lawns and planting beds
  • Checking existing controllers for upgrade options

02 / EXISTING SYSTEMS

Already have a system? We're here to help.

Need assistance with an existing irrigation system or want to change providers? We also service systems installed by other companies. We assess their condition, manufacturer, availability of spare parts and possible improvements.

  • Maintenance, spring start-up and winterization
  • Troubleshooting, repairs and component replacement
  • Expansion and upgrades following technical assessment

Whether an upgrade or service takeover is possible depends on the installation and suitable spare parts.

Technology with Purpose

Quality starts with the right components.

A premium irrigation system is only as good as the technology behind it. We therefore use proven brands and carefully matched components, from sprinklers and smart controllers to drip irrigation and pumping systems.

Depending on the requirements of your project, we use components from reputable manufacturers, including:

Products are selected to suit each project. Clicking a brand opens its website in a new tab. The NaanDanJain website now redirects to Rivulis. Brand names do not imply an official partnership.

Good to Know

Frequently asked questions about irrigation.

From the first consultation to maintaining an existing system, here are answers to common customer questions.

How much does an automatic irrigation system cost?

Costs depend on your landscape's size and layout, water supply, irrigation zones, sprinkler types and controllers. We assess your specific project rather than promising a flat price. Ask us about your project without obligation.

Can you install irrigation in an existing garden?

Often, yes. We adapt pipe routes, access and sprinkler positions to your lawn, paths, planting beds and water supply.

Do you service systems installed by other companies?

Yes. We can service existing systems even if Gartenoase did not install them. First, we examine the manufacturer, condition, documentation and availability of spare parts, then discuss feasible maintenance, repairs or upgrades.

What is smart irrigation?

Depending on the equipment, smart irrigation can be operated via a compatible controller, Wi-Fi or an app. Some systems also take weather data or rain sensors into account. Available functions depend on the components.

Can I upgrade my current irrigation controller to Wi-Fi?

Some controllers can be upgraded, while others need replacing. We examine the existing model, wiring and desired features before recommending a suitable option.

What is the difference between pop-up sprinklers and drip irrigation?

Pop-up sprinklers are commonly used for lawns and retract almost invisibly into the ground. Drip irrigation delivers water directly to planting areas. Many gardens benefit from both, with separate irrigation zones.

What are the requirements for my water supply?

Available flow rate and water pressure are important. They influence the design of irrigation zones and component selection. We can also discuss pumping and water supply solutions.

How do you winterize irrigation systems?

During winterization we use a compressor to clear residual water from the irrigation pipes. Controlled compressed air helps prevent frost damage in suitable lines and sprinklers. We adapt pressure and procedures to the specific system and its components. We can also restart your system in spring.

Do you offer maintenance, repairs and spring start-up?

Yes. We check system functions, sprinklers, valves and controllers, make adjustments as needed, and assist with repairs, seasonal start-up and winterization.

Which manufacturers and controller brands do you use?

Depending on the project, we use products from brands such as Hunter, Rain Bird, Toro, Irritrol and Irritec, as well as specialist pump manufacturers. We select products for technical suitability and can also assess existing equipment.

Which areas do you serve?

We are based in Erlangen and primarily serve clients in Erlangen, Nuremberg, Fürth and Herzogenaurach, as well as surrounding towns including Forchheim, Höchstadt an der Aisch, Baiersdorf, Bubenreuth, Möhrendorf, Heßdorf, Weisendorf, Röttenbach, Adelsdorf, Uttenreuth, Spardorf, Neunkirchen am Brand, Heroldsberg, Kalchreuth and Veitsbronn. We can assess other locations individually depending on distance and project scope.

Do you design irrigation for sports pitches and public landscapes?

We also advise sports clubs, municipalities and commercial customers on larger irrigation projects. We review the site, water supply and technical requirements to determine a suitable solution and scope of work.
