If you are a homeowner in Chandler and are considering installing artificial grass in an area used by dogs you need to consider 2 things.
The most important factors that make pet turf suitable for dogs is durability and odors.
You will want an extremely durable grass that will withstand dogs but also something that does not smell during the hot Chandler summers.
If you are looking for pet turf in Chandler you will want to make sure your pet turf is extremely durable, especially if you have medium to large sized dogs.
Artificial grass is very similar to carpet in a few ways.
Pile height is the height of the pet turf blades.
Pet turf is typically around 1” tall.
This short blade is thicker, stiffer and stronger to prevent matting or laying down.
The shape of the blade along with the thickness is what gives pet turf its durability.
One of the biggest concerns homeowners in Chandler, AZ have when installing pet turf is urine odors.
In Chandler, our summers can get extremely hot.
Urine odors tend to smell more in the summer months so it is very important you choose the right installer and products for your pet turf.
There are 3 main factors to keeping urine odors away from your pet turf.
The first step is to install the turf without an underlayment.
Some companies will install a weed fabric or black plastic sheet under the grass to prevent weeds and grass from growing through.
This is only needed if the grass is not properly treated and removed before the installation of the pet turf.
The problem with a fabric underneath your pet turf is that it will trap and impede urine from draining.
The second thing to consider is using a grass coated in Microban.
Microban is antibacterial and antimicrobial.
This coating will prevent the growth of bacteria on your artificial grass.
The third step to preventing pet turf odors is to use the correct infill.
Sand is the most common infill for artificial grass but is the wrong type for pet turf. Sand will absorb all the pet urine and make it hard to clean in the future.
We recommend using a product called Envirofill.
Envirofill is a green, non-absorbent bead that is also coated in Microban.
This bead is much easier to clean than sand and will also prevent the build up of bacteria over time.
In Arizona we understand how important it is to provide a comfortable area for your pets to walk on in the Arizona summer.
Our pet turf has a built in cooling technology to keep it about 15% cooler than other artificial turf’s without it.
In addition, we have an infill option than can increase the cooling power of your turf by almost 40%.
On average, we are seeing homeowners paying around $8-9/ sq ft for a true pet turf installationin Chandler, AZ.
What this includes is a high-quality turf that is durable and coated in Microban, a 100% infill ratio of Envirofill and all the prep/demo and installation of all materials.
Installing Pet Turf is a multi-step process.
We need to treat the grass at least 3 weeks prior to the date of the install.
This will ensure that we do not have to use a weed fabric under the grass during the installation process.
The day of the install, we will remove all the real grass, terminate your sprinkler system, bring our base material in and install our pet turf.
The Envirofill is the last step of the process.
We will broom this infill into the pet turf after the artificial grass is secured to the ground.
We will hose off the pet turf area and clean the street up after the install.
Once we leave, your new pet turf is available to use immediately.
We want to set realistic expectations on every turf installation.
Pet turf is not maintenance free, but it is very little maintenance.
We recommend removing debris and pet waste on a frequents basis.
Pet waste is best removed by either picking it up by hand or with a pooper scooper.
