To run from 1/2" copper or not

Quoted from "coghij1" Sounds great. I have 50 psi and about 8 gpm. Should I step down the pressure to 30-35 psi or will 50 psi be just fine for the rotator heads you mentioned? Scratch that. I just realized there are sprinkler bodies that do that!

The grass will be a rectangle 45'x16' so would I be able to find spray heads that reach 16' or would I have to put down another line in the middle and run the sprayers in 8' patterns? It would be tricky because the 45' length can't be easily divided into 8' sections so there would be a lot of overlap.

Ok, for starters I have a small backyard and I am planning on putting in about 720 sq ft of sod and a sprinker system to cover that same area. I have a hose bib conveniently located in my backyard running off the half inch copper lines from within my house. On the other hand I can tap into the main on the opposite side of the house but I would have to run a line under the sidewalk and I would rather not deal with that. I just don't see a problem with using the half in copper from the house if I ...
