The actual size of the strip is 2' by 148' if you count all the way across the front yard. I was only going to do the 2' x 60' that is on the front left of the yard first then the other side of the yard later on in the year. The neighbors who had sprinkler systems installed have the rotors installed in this 2' strip and firing across the 4' sidewalk and into their yards. Since it appears that the strip sprinklers are not going to work, how about some solution that perhaps can use some type of dr...
Okay, i have a 4ft wide sidewalk which disects my lawn into the large section above 60ft x 60ft and a small strip of approximately 2ft x 60ft. I would like to put this strip on its own zone instead of putting the big rotors in the strip and have them fire across the sidewalk into the rest of the yard. The problem is that I cannot find anyone that has 2ft strip sprays[End Strip, and center strips]. I have checked the usual suspects... Rainbird, Hunter... they all offer either 4ft or 5ft as the sm...
Since these are rain curtain nozzles, using 1gph nozzles, will the water drops still be enough to nicely create the rain curtain effect? I have also noticed that these units come factory shipped with 3gph nozzles. Is that their optimum flow rate in order to get the proper rain curtain effect? To make sure of the coverage, I tested one sprinkler unit running at 55psi with a 5gph flow rate and the rain curtain was so nice that the neighbor next door asked "which sprinkler was that?" as his does no...
hey All, I need my thinking processes looked over. First the info: * Front Yard Size: 60' x 60' feet square. * Grass Type: Bermuda mowed at approximately 1' height. * Yard faces: South/south east: Full sun from morning to night: No trees so it needs a lot of water. * Water Static Pressure: 80psi at 3/4" main tap off. * Water Pressure measured through 3/4" pipe after back-flow preventer: 55psi at 14gph flow rate or 45psi at 16gph flow rate: I am planning on using RainBird rain curtain 5000 series...
