Drip systems are best suited for flowerbeds, shrubs, and groups of cacti since individual root systems can be targeted with ease. These holes dispense small amounts of water to specific areas.

They are also suitable for small, hard-to-reach areas of lawn, and they are practical to use in areas where you’d like to avoid spraying a house, cars or the street.Ī drip system consists of a series of tubes that have small holes in them. They are best suited for flat, even areas do not use them on slopes. These sprinkler heads dispense high volumes of water in short periods of time. They are also a better choice for sloped areas or areas that are made up of clay soils since they apply water at a slower rate and thus help prevent water runoff. Rotors are used to save labor on installation since they cover a larger area than spray heads so you can space them out much farther apart.

They have a much lower application rate than spray heads do. When you need to water large expanses rotor heads are the best option. Make sure to read through the specific instructions that have been outlined by the manufacturer. Some use dials, while others are 100% digital. Please note that different sprinkler system timers have different controls and features. Only add Station Run Times for the stations you want to water using the Program you are setting up. You will want to set the Station Run Times to zero for the stations you already have running on another Program (A, B, or C). Repeat the steps listed above for each Program you want to run. To set up additional programs select a Program (A, B, or C) other than the one you just set up using the steps above.


Now that you have the right day and time configured, it’s time to enter a program.
