Linear aeration

Linear aeration is a relatively new aeration process; it allows water to penetrate the soil and to be retained in the proper amounts. Linear aeration also adds organic nutrition, soil softeners (humus, topsoil, compost, sand, clay, etc.) if necessary. Linear aeration also alleviates excessive water in turf areas.

In linear aeration, the necessary organic matter is added on top of the turf. Next, grooves are cut into the turf to let the soil additives enter the soil; the grooves are recovered in the same passage.

Benefits of linear aeration

*provides smoother turf surfaces
*alleviates soil compaction in heavily traveled areas
*permits proper distribution of soil additives
*allows organic nutrition absorption
*promotes superior root development
*causes minimal interruption of use of athletic fields
*drastically reduces disruption of actual turf surface compared to core aeration
