HUFFMAN, TEXAS — FERTIGATION SYSTEMS
Fertigation Systems in Huffman, TX
a fertigation system works with your sprinkler system to feed your lawn a tiny, measured dose of fertilizer, pest control, or mosquito control every time a zone runs — automatically, with no spraying. On a larger Huffman lot with more zones and more turf, that steady micro-dose is exactly how a big lawn gets fed evenly without a spray truck.

How it works
Your sprinkler system already waters the whole yard evenly, zone by zone. A fertigation unit taps into that flow and adds a small, controlled amount of product to the water as it passes through.
- A micro-injection every time a zone runs — a little bit, often, instead of a big dose once in a while. The lawn gets fed steadily, and the product goes where the water goes.
- Two ways to inject it — some systems use the venturi effect, some use pressure differential. Both do the same job: pull a measured amount out of the tank and mix it into the irrigation water. We will tell you which one fits your system and your water pressure.
- Refill the tank about once a quarter — that is the whole job for the homeowner. No mixing, no spraying, no scheduling a truck. Just top up the tank and the system does the rest.
What goes through the system
One system, three jobs — because it all rides on the same water:
- Fertilization — liquid fertilizer delivered evenly to the lawn and beds, zone by zone, instead of granules that sit on top and wash off in the first rain.
- Pest control — organic pest control products that go through the irrigation water and into the soil and turf where the pests actually live.
- Mosquito control — organic mosquito control through the same system, applied evenly across the yard every time the sprinklers run, instead of a one-time spray that wears off.
Everything we put through the system is organic, pet-friendly, and earth-friendly. That matters on a rural lot — it goes on the lawn your kids and your dogs play on, and it goes into the soil, so it needs to be safe there.
Why it fits Huffman
Huffman lots are bigger, which means more turf, more zones, and more ground for mosquitoes to live in — especially near Lake Houston and the East Fork, where the air stays damp. Feeding and protecting a big lawn by hand is a chore; a spray truck is a recurring appointment. Fertigation fits a big lot because it scales with the sprinkler system you already have: more zones just means more micro-doses, delivered evenly, every time the system runs.
The systems we install
- EZ-FLO (E-Z-FLO) — our preferred system. Simple, reliable, and easy to refill. This is the one we like best and the one we install most.
- Mosquito Magic — we can install it, but we are not a licensed dealer for Mosquito Magic. We will be straight with you about that.
- Other fertigation systems — depending on your system, your water pressure, and what you want the system to do.
What we do — and what we do not do
We install the fertigation system, tie it into your irrigation system, set the injection rate, and show you how to refill the tank. We do not spray chemicals. We do not hold a Texas pest license, and we do not pretend to. If a job needs a licensed spray applicator, we will tell you that, and we will not take the job.

Backflow protection: an RPZ is required
Because a fertigation system adds product to the water, Texas treats it as a health hazard for backflow purposes. Before any chemical is added to an irrigation system connected to a potable water supply, the system must be connected through a reduced pressure principle backflow prevention assembly (RPZ) or an air gap — that is 30 TAC §344.51(a). A standard pressure vacuum breaker or double check valve is not enough once an injection system is on the line. We install the right RPZ assembly as part of the fertigation job, and it gets tested annually like any health-hazard backflow assembly. (30 TAC Chapter 344, §344.51)
Frequently asked questions
Do you spray for mosquitoes?
No. We do not spray chemicals and we do not hold a Texas pest license. What we do is install a fertigation system that delivers organic mosquito control through your sprinkler system, a little bit every time a zone runs.
Is it really hands-off?
Yes. Once it is installed and set, the system injects on its own every time the sprinklers run. Your job is to refill the tank about once a quarter.
Is it safe for pets and kids?
The products we run through the system are organic, pet-friendly, and earth-friendly. That is the whole point of doing it this way instead of spraying.
Does a bigger lot need a bigger tank?
It depends on how many zones you run and how often. We size the system to your yard and your watering schedule, and we will tell you what the refill rhythm looks like for your property.
