Although generalized and not intended to cover all aspects of any medical condition, a wide variety of information is available to you. Get started with the topic areas to your left to learn more.
When the sprinkler head is triggered, a valve to the pipe system is opened, releasing the water that is kept under pressure from the pipes. The water is quickly pushed out of the pipes through the sprinkler head, spraying water downward and out to the sides.
Then set the sprinklers in that zone to run for that length of time. You can generally set the sprinkler times in the following way. Rotary sprinklers usually will take about 40 to 50 minutes to adequately water their zone. Fixed spray heads will take generally 15 to 20 minutes to produce 3/4 to 1 inch of water. It's best to water in the morning before dawn. Watering in the morning reduces evaporation caused by the hot sun.
