LEED Success Stories

University Sprinklers is proud to have been trusted with the task of contributing to the design and installation of irrigation systems at LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Certified Olympic venues, including the Richmond Olympic Oval and the Whistler Athletes’ Village. At the oval, the roof doubles as a massive rainfall recovery system. The water is diverted into an onsite pond which in turn feeds the irrigation system.

At the Whistler Athletes’ Village, various water saving methods are used, including drip irrigation (very efficient), PRS pop up heads, which use less water than conventional heads, and superior U-Series Rain Bird nozzles which disperse water more evenly, and therefore more efficiently.
