Why pressure matters

Water pressure affects how evenly your irrigation system performs. If pressure is too low, heads may not pop up fully or cover the area consistently. If it is too high, misting, runoff, and wasted water can become a problem.

How it is evaluated

In a proper irrigation system design, the designer reviews the available water supply and measures the pressure at the site. They also look at flow rate, pipe sizing, valve placement, and the type of spray heads or rotors being used. These details help determine whether pressure needs to be reduced or balanced across zones.

What a good design does

  • Matches sprinkler heads to the actual water pressure
  • Divides the system into zones that operate efficiently
  • Reduces uneven watering and overspray
  • Supports healthier turf and plants with less waste
