After running the numbers last week I think that I am going to do the long main line run... I was amazed that at 300 ft running about 45 psi @ 11-12 gpm Id only loose 2psi... I thought that Id loose much more than that. Now I just have to factor in the size of my zones, head consumption and psi loss from the bfp and valves and Ill be ready to dig.
Hi guys, I am designing a sprinkler system for my personal property. My meter is on the opposite side of my driveway from the house. I plan on putting my back flow preventer next to the garage. I see my options as running a 1-1/4 mainline around the back of the house, side and across the front for my front zones or tunnel/bore under the driveway. If I go around the house that puts me about 300' from the meter. Will I still have sufficient pressure to operate my zones? We are in Houston so the so...
