• Run Time
  
  • Spray Heads: Run for 5-9 minutes
  • Rotor Heads: Run for 15-22 minutes‍
  • Adjust based on soil type and weather.
  • Bonus Tip: Check soil moisture 2–3 inches down—if it’s dry, water deeper. Sometimes a Fungicide may be required.
• PLEASE NOTE:
  • Every irrigation system is a little different — and that’s okay. What works for one yard may not work for another.
    • System Types Vary: Spray heads, rotors, water pressure, and layout all affect how long and how often you should run your system.
    • Know Your Soil:
      • Clay soil holds water longer — you may need to water less often.
      • Sandy soil drains faster and usually needs more frequent watering‍
      • Local Water Rules Apply:
        Be sure to follow your city’s watering schedule or restrictions. Most cities do allow for exceptions with a variance when you’ve installed:
        
        • New Sod
        • Fresh Seed
        • New Plants
