Details and conditions for planning your irrigation system: plan, water and position of sprinklers

The planning of an irrigation system is an important step on the way to the successful realization of your project. The planning requires a lot of attention to detail, especially with regard to the scaled surface mapping. This is because a correct area map is the only way to plan the spraying distances correctly.

It is also essential to determine the amount of water available to you with our measuring device. This is the only way that the hydraulics of the irrigation system can function properly. Only so many consumers may be connected per irrigation circuit that the internal line pressure does not fall below 3.5 bar.

The correct positioning of the sprinklers is also of great importance for a functioning system. Only when sprinklers overlap completely (i.e. are arranged head to head) is uniform water distribution possible. This even distribution allows the area to be irrigated efficiently.

Planning an irrigation system

So you see: If you work with the right know-how and the right products, planning an irrigation system is not that complicated.

With the manuals and guides we provide, you can ensure a successful result for watering your garden. And if you still have questions, we are always available by mail!
