Sprinklers  

When it comes to the sprinklers, it is important to examine them on a regular basis in order to ensure that none of them are missing. After all, the system will continue to run as scheduled if you don’t check and a missing sprinkler head can be a messy discovery. In addition to this, it is also important to ensure that the sprinkler heads are in the correct position as tilted heads will lead to uneven watering.    

Water Pressure  

Although automatic watering systems are scheduled to run at specific intervals, it is important to keep an eye on the water pressure. After all, a value that is too high can damage the system but a value that is too low will not effectively water your garden. Luckily, pressure regulators can be purchased in order to guarantee the pressure remains constant in between these checks.    

Seasons  

Scheduling an automatic watering system to go off depends on many factors, such as the type of plants you are watering and the time of year. After all, many plants have different watering requirements and these can differ depending on the season. As a result, it is important to adjust these settings as the seasons change throughout the year in order to make the most of your irrigation system.
