Thank you for showing this video! I am new in the landscape business. I was wondering if you have a video were you show how to wire the system? I truly enjoyed this video! Excellent, simple and easy explanation!

[@YardCoach]

Hey Jose, thanks for watching. Wiring irrigation is relatively easy, safe and quick. A direct answer for you is NOI do not have a video addressing valve and timer wire up.But the easy thing to remember is white for COMMON wire and colored for valves. At the timer place your white wire into the common and the colored wires into your zone slots and tighten.Run your wire to your valve assembly.There use your white wire to connect to one wire from each solenoid. Then the colored wires to the remaining wire at each solenoid. So, maybe at the timer zone #1 is red,Zone#2 is yellow, Zone #3 is green, Zone four is brown etc. More valves use 7 strand or 9 strand wire. If you do remote valves then use a very long COMMON wire and individual red wires, label them, for each Zone. Test from the timer and you should be good. Good Luck. Coach.

Great information Mr.Thanks for taking the time to create this video. I can see you are passionate about your career. I have to present an irritation system for my backyard improvement to HOA in order to get approval to start the project. Excellent information I have a better understanding about irrigation system. I have a sod area that looks like a "L Shape" the big area is 24x20 follow by 10x21 area that follows bottom right side of big area forming kind of a "L Shape Lawn" I wonder what could you use to be effective and cover this area. Thanks Geo

[@YardCoach]

Depending on what size of system you choose. If using a 1” system you can have a rotor head system for the larger area, the. A pop up spray system for the narrower area. I would guess a 4-6 valve system depending on pressure and distance your valves would be from the lawn area. You got this!! Thanks for the comment/question. Here to help you as needed. Snap a pic of your irrigation design and we can go over it before submission. Good luck. Coach Matt.

9:58 “365 degrees???” Hmm, So you want just a little bit beyond full circle rotation?

[@YardCoach]

5 degrees beyond perfect..👍🏻

[@TropicBreezeRealty]

I didn't catch the part where you mentioned perimeter sprinkler spacing. I heard you say 15ft spray distance but how close where the sprinklers to one another? Thanks

[@YardCoach]

A good rule of thumb is always be 3 under in your spacing. For instance 15’ spray heads are spaced 12’. For overlapping head to head coverage.

[@TropicBreezeRealty]

@@YardCoach wow that was a fast response. Thank you

[@michaelquinn8125]

1 inch pipe at 50 psi is more like 35 gallons per minute not 13

[@YardCoach]

I don’t think so.

[@streetlegalinc]

He has no clue. Depends on the meter size and type of service line.

[@marcialcardenas6643]

There are only 15 heads in that lawn area, couldn't you just run 1 inch pvc and cover that with 2 vslves instead of 3? maybe even 1 valve, also why not just use funny pipe to connect the heads?

[@YardCoach]

That would depend on pressure. Be safe with three valves otherwise 7 n 8 heads might not cover well. But you do what you want to do. Thx for watching.

[@michaelquinn8125]

Sorry to be picky but at nine minutes and 52 seconds he's talking about 365° on a van nozzle but there's only 360° in a circle

[@YardCoach]

Whoops!

[@Nickporter17]

Grow up

[@gporr7004]

Way too much talking nonsense. How do you measure where each sprinkler head goes?? Forget PSI and the scientific crap.

[@YardCoach]

Take 2 ft off of the diameter throw of a sprinkler head. For instance a 12’ pop up space 10’ so you have good head to head coverage. For larger heads for lawns subtract 3’ and space accordingly. Thanks for watching but be nice. You didn’t take the time and effort to create something for everybody not just you.

[@gporr7004]

@@YardCoach Seemed like 24 minutes of PSI but ok thx
