Keeping Muskoka Green

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Way to Grow Irrigation service my system even though it wasn’t originally installed by them?

Yes we can! In fact we take care of many systems that we did not install. Over time many contractors come and go in the Muskoka area and clients get tired of calling other contractors to show up to service their systems. We pride ourselves in treating our clients the way we would want to be treated.

Should I call my contractor for spring start-up and winterizing of my system?

Once you become a client we take care of the essential services like spring start-up and winterization of your system automatically. We also strive to have access to all components so that we can complete our service tasks without needing to bother anyone. This is one of the things our clients comment on the most. They love that we just take care of it and them. You’re on the list!

How much water can I take from the lake without a permit?

The Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE) regulates the taking of water in the province. Under Section 34 of the Ontario Water Resources Act, a Permit to Take Water (PTTW) is required for most water takings of 50,000 litres (13,209 gallons) per day or greater in Ontario, An average sprinkler system with 6 zones takes approximately 6814 litres (1800 gallons) per cycle.

I live on a lake. What kind of pump do I need?

Great question for irrigation in the Muskoka and surrounding area! Way to Grow Irrigation specializes in irrigation pumps and has installed many different sizes and models around the Muskoka region. We look at many different aspects of the site when choosing a pump, like shallow or deep water, boat house or sleeping cabin close by for noise, GPM needed, visually appealing, vandalism, etc. We prefer submersible pumps because they are unseen, quiet, more efficient, longer lasting, stronger, etc and try to use these pump wherever applicable.

Will an automatic sprinkler system water as effectively as I can water by hand?

A sprinkler system will actually water better and more efficiently because a professionally designed system will deliver the right amount of water at the right time and prevent losses from wind, evaporation, etc.

How do I know which irrigation system is best suited to my property?

When you hire a professional, they will work with you to design the best system for your needs. They will take into consideration things like, water source, soil type, climate, plant material, even budget. They will also inform you on cost effective ways to conserve water and energy, with different service options.
