Sod Squad uses a high-speed, water-based injection system to blast aeration holes through the root zone to fracture the soil. The patented vacuum technology simultaneously fills holes to the surface with high volumes of sand or amendment.
This means you can relieve compaction, increase water infiltration, reach the root zone with oxygen and amend your soil with high volumes of material all at the same time. Plus Sod Squad leaves the surface smooth and playable.
Deep aeration holes are filled completely when injecting into putting greens. Depending on spacing and depth requirements, 8 – 30 tons of sand can be injected per acre. Lighter ceramics and like materials will be close to 35% of sand.
Sod Squad aerates, topdresses and amends in one operation. Sod Squad requires minimal cleanup, there is very little playing surface impairment.
Sod Squad allows for uninterrupted play so there’s minimal lost revenue due to poor playing conditions.
Sod Squad is a contracted service with professional operators. It helps reduce labor costs and free up maintenance staff. Your staff can now concentrate on course maintenance improving the overall playing experience.
Sod Squad depths can be adjusted from 2 to 12 inches (depending on soil type and compaction) and can be matched to support the level of firmness you want in your approaches.
