About Kerman
The name Kerman was built from the first three letters of the surnames of developers William G. Kerckhoff and Jacob Mansar, who saw a chance to buy water from the new Enterprise Canal, which drew from the Kings River.
The post office was renamed Kerman in 1906.
At about 220 feet, Kerman shares the Fresno area’s semi-arid San Joaquin Valley climate, with long, hot, dry summers, mild winters and average rainfall of around 11 inches a year.
Sprinkler & Irrigation Installation for Kerman homes
New irrigation is mostly planning. Zone count, head type, trenching, and the controller all depend on the size and shape of the yard and on the flow your supply can give. Matching heads on each zone is what makes coverage even.
We install new sprinkler zones, add zones to an existing system, and set up drip for beds and trees. We give a free estimate after seeing the property.
A new Kerman system is zoned and programmed around the rules that apply to your address, so run times stay short and the schedule fits the days you are allowed.
