What is Hunter EcoMat Subsurface Irrigation and why is it so great?
Hunter Eco-Mat®: The Smart Way to Create Lush, Water-Efficient Lawns in Los Angeles
By Heather Trilling – Trilling Landscape Design & Build
Maintaining a beautiful, green lawn in Los Angeles or Ventura County can be a challenge — our Mediterranean climate brings long, dry seasons and strict water regulations.
At Trilling Landscape Design & Build, we’ve found a smart solution that keeps lawns thriving while cutting water waste: Hunter Eco-Mat® subsurface irrigation.
We’ve designed and installed Eco-Mat systems for modern estates from Pacific Palisades to Hidden Hills, with exceptional results — deeper roots, greener grass, and major water savings — all without messy overspray.
What Is Hunter Eco-Mat®?
Hunter Eco-Mat® is a subsurface drip irrigation system designed to water turf and groundcover efficiently by targeting the root zone directly. It combines two key components:
A fleece-wrapped dripline (Eco-Wrap)
A fleece mat that spreads water evenly beneath the turf
The result is a uniform, hidden irrigation system that conserves water while keeping your lawn lush and green.
The 5 Key Benefits of Hunter Eco-Mat®
Significant Water Savings
Eco-Mat delivers water directly to the roots — reducing evaporation and runoff. Homeowners can save 20–40% more water compared to traditional spray systems.Perfectly Even Moisture Distribution
The fleece layer wicks water laterally, ensuring every square inch of soil receives moisture — resulting in fewer dry patches and healthier turf.Cleaner Hardscapes and All-Day Usability
Because Eco-Mat irrigates below the surface, patios, driveways, and pool decks stay dry — no overspray on windows or slippery concrete.Low Maintenance and Root Protection
Eco-Mat’s anti-siphon emitters prevent debris buildup and root intrusion, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.Versatility for Complex Landscape Designs
Ideal for slopes, medians, narrow side yards, and even green roofs — Eco-Mat adapts seamlessly to a variety of applications.
