How do I know I have watered long enough with my Dramm sprinkler?

This handy PDF will help you determine the length of time needed to provide one-inch of water to your lawn per week.

Recommended Sprinkler Durations [PDF -68KB]

  • Based upon the rule of thumb of providing one inch of water to your lawn per week; total water delivery (rain + watering); warmer, more arid areas require more.
  • These rates are based upon no other source of water received during the week.
  • Recommendation based upon sprinkler coverage area: divide your watering area by sprinkler coverage and multiply that ratio to the recommended time.
  • Flow rate and coverage area assumes water pressure from spigot is ~ 40 psi
