Lawn Sprinkler Pump
The lawn sprinkler pump is necessary to push the water through the sprinkler system in order to water your backyard. In order to establish the sprinkler pump that you will need, you first have to do some planning on your sprinkler system. In order to determine the your requirements, make a note of the length of piping that you will use, together with the width of the tubing, and finally, the number of sprinkler heads you’ll want. As well it would be important to figure out how much water will flow through the sprinkler heads.
It would also be a good idea to imagine how many zones your system will need to spray. All this information will be based on the size of your garden and how much water coverage you want to give it. For example, if you took the average of six sprinkler heads per area that should assist you will your calculations. Based on a sprinkler system for this many head over the front and back gardens, it will probable be sufficient to use a one horsepower motor to be able to deliver nearly thirty gallons of water per minute.
Take the time with your calculations to ensure that the right amount of water will flow through with pipes, because if there is not enough water it will not put the required pressure on the heads to spin and that will mean it won’t work effectively. On the other hand, if too much water flows through it, then it’s likely to cause the heads to spin much to fast and may result in damage to the system.
When choosing the right sprinkler pump, it is important to take into consideration that the water may be sourced from a variety of avenues, such as a pond, a well or a cistern, but that can only really cope with a twenty foot drop. Once the lawn sprinkler pump is finally in place and the sprinkler up and running you will be truly pleased with the automated system that you have just created.
