The rule this demonstrates

Drip never shares a valve with sprinklers (R4). Dripline applies water at a completely different rate — on a shared station one of the two is always watered wrongly.

What this design does not show

This design also wets 4.5% of the obstacle area and 12.1 m² outside the lawn — the most of the four examples. With a terrace and a pond in the middle of the garden that is hard to avoid without adding heads; we publish the figure rather than omit it.

How this design was made

The site geometry (lawn, house, paths, beds, tap) was drawn the way a user would draw it. Everything else — sprinkler placement, nozzles, arcs, zoning, pipe routes, hydraulics and the bill of materials — was computed by the IrriForge engine from the Hunter and Rain Bird design manuals. The numbers on this page are generated by a script in the repository, so a change in the engine or the catalogue changes them immediately.
