| Properly spaced sprinkler heads make a big difference in
watering efficiency and effect. Take a look at these examples: |
||
| 50 feet spacing between sprinkler heads: | ||
 |
||
| At 50 feet, the effective coverage of each head is out of range by 10 feet or more. | ||
| 40 feet spacing between sprinkler heads: | ||
 |
||
| At 40 feet, the sprinkler heads are still out of range by 5 feet or more. | ||
| 30 feet spacing between sprinkler heads: | ||
 |
||
| At 30 feet, the sprinkers are now head to head.
There are no weak spots. Result: even, effective watering of the lawn. |
||
| Residential sprinklers throw water approximately 25 to 40 feet. But with typical water pressure and volume demands when the system is running, average coverage is 30 feet. |
