To achieve this goal most spray head zones (sprinklers that do not rotate) need to run approximately 15 minutes and rotor zones (sprinklers that do rotate) need to run approximately 45 minutes. If you have much slope on your lawn areas you may need to run 2 cycles but with shorter run times on the zones.
1 Based on this number (inches per hour), you can determine how long the sprinkler must run to provide your lawn with the amount of water it needs. 2  For example, in June, a typical Kentucky bluegrass lawn needs about 1.5 inches of water a week, which means you should water your lawn about a half inch three times a week. Pour all the water into one can, which equals the amount of water your sprinkler system delivers in one hour. 2  Based on this number (inches per hour), you can determine how long the sprinkler must run to provide your lawn with the amount of water it needs.
