A modern irrigation system consists of three overlapping elements: a water source, a distribution network, and an intelligent control layer.
First, ensure the hydraulics are correct. Zoning is the point where most retrofitting projects fail—too many sprinklers on a single circuit lead to a collapse in pressure across the lawn.
On top of solid hydraulics, an intelligent controller with rain and soil sensors typically reduces consumption by 30–40% compared to a timer-only configuration.
