Your reticulation system must have a minimum flow rate of 6 litres of water per watering station to function. If you only have a few low flow sprinkler heads/drips on a station, or short subsurface hosing, you may not achieve the minimum flow rate. Speak to your reticulation specialist if you are unsure whether you meet the minimum flow requirement. They will be able to help you calculate your water flow based on the kind, size and number of outlets you have. See Technical Guide for more information.
