Planning lawn irrigation: How to correctly calculate lawn sprinklers and water pressure

7 View

In this video, I show you how to calculate the number of sprinklers and watering circuits for your automatic lawn irrigation system. I explain how to determine the available water pressure and water flow and which sprinklers and nozzles are best suited for which locations.

Three years ago, I installed a Hunter automatic lawn irrigation system in my garden. The system automatically supplies my lawn with water and is controlled by the Hunter X-Core irrigation computer.

Many of you ask me how to plan and calculate such an irrigation system. How many sprinklers can be connected to one circuit? Is your own water connection sufficient? In this video, I answer these questions and share my personal experiences and tips with you.

Please note that I cannot guarantee my statements. For professional advice, please contact specialist companies.
