We are midway through the automation of the retic systems in two adjacent homes in Duncraig.
They share an old common bore which had been operated by a manual switch. So far we have installed a separate automatic reticulation controller on each property and are replacing the old manual gate valves with automatic solenoid valves. 3 on one property and 5 on the neighbours.
The retic system at one house hadn’t been used for 20 years so fingers crossed when we give it a well overdue service and some TLC!

Existing manual bores or reticulation systems operated by on/off switches and gate valves can be a hassle. It is easy to automate the system taking the hassle out of juggling operation times.
Virgin Bores will supply and install a reticulation controller that will turn off your bore automatically. Automatically operated solenoid valves can replace manually operated gate valves. Compliance with your Perth rostered sprinkler watering days is then automatic.
More info on bore automation is found here. To have your sprinklers turn on automatically call Troy on 9246 0111
Ellenbrook is a northeastern suburb of Perth about 20 km from the CBD in the City of Sean. Ellenbrook, and its neighbouring suburbs of The Vines and Aveley are a significant distance from neighbouring suburbs (thanks Wikipedia)
One of our drillers Ben used the trailer mounted rig on this modern submersible water bore in Ellenbrook. It was a 30 metre drill with static groundwater level at about 14m as expected.
A .75 Kw Submersible pump was used as it suited the existing retic with power to spare. š

Most commonly Perth water bores are connected to the clients existing reticulation. We are able to install a manual tap if requested. The bore tap is usually high pressure and can be used for hand watering and numbers of other things.
People need to realise its only irrigation quality water, not “tap” drinking quality water from the scheme.
Handy bore tap
Can I have a tap from my bore? Sure you can.
We have installed 2 bore taps this week.
Above, Tom installed a brass tap and pressure release valve to this new 22 metre deep submersible bore we just drilled in Morley.
Tom also installed another one to this new 29 metre submersible bore we just completed in Quinns Rocks(above). We install a larger than normal tap to fit a bigger 20mm hose to accommodate the extra flow from a bore.
Location of water bore at this property in South Perth
Here we drilled an 18 metre modern submersible water bore for a customer at their home in South Perth.
Here is the report from the driller. Thanks Ben for a great job!
South Perth driller’s report
Tom returned and installed the pump at 12 metres at the top of the slotted casing.
He installed a bore box at the top of the bore which is covered over with sand so that bore is not only silent it is invisible.

Virgin Water Bores recently drilled, cased, developed and gravel packed a 18 metre submersible bore in the Perth suburb of Brabham.
A .75 kW submersible motor was used for the Brabham water bore.
In the next few days after the drilling the electrician and reticulation team connect the new water bore to existing reticulation and bore box.

As pictured, we also supplied and installed a tap and pressure release valve.

We pride ourselves on customer service so it was great to get this email.
David was pretty chuffed to get it thanking him for the 52 metre bore drilled in Heathridge just hours after he connected it to the retic.
