One of the most important aspects of installing a new sprinkler system is the design of the sprinkler system. If your sprinkler system is designed poorly not only will you be unhappy with it’s performance once the sprinkler system is installed, sprinkler systems are expensive. A lot of times thousands of dollars are involved with a new sprinkler system. You want it done right the first time. A well designed sprinkler system will give you years of trouble free service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have have recently been getting a lot of requests to do a video on how to do a sprinkler system design. I now have a YouTube video on how to design a sprinkler system<\/a>. In this video I go through the steps of testing water pressure, determining the gallons per minute the sprinkler system will use, and how to get the forms you would need to design a sprinkler system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also show how to put your sprinkler design to scale on a plot plan,  when to use spray heads and when to use rotors, and how to zone sprinkler heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have free PDF downloads of the sprinkler design and materials list in the YouTube video on my downloads<\/a> page on this website. The downloads page also has a number of other PDF manuals that might be helpful to you if you are looking for sprinkler information. I welcome comments on my new forum<\/a> page and this blog, and if you’re planning on designing and installing your own sprinkler system, good luck and let me know how the process goes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
