Determine a Watering Plan
To help you visualize how best to program the sprinkler timer, it
might be helpful to make a watering plan on paper. This will help
you establish which days and times you want to water. [See Figure 2]
1. For each station (or valve) write down the watering location,
the type of sprinkler head and the plants to be watered.
2. Using this list, determine the recommended watering dura-
tion (for each type of sprinkler head and the vegetation
to be watered) and frequency for each station.
Important: Identify any imposed watering restrictions through
your local water district.
3. Determine, based on step 2, the ideal watering option for each
station.
Program A allows you to select specific days of the week to
water (e.g. Monday, Wednesday and and Saturday) as well
as every second day (every other day).
Program B allows you to specify 2 options:
- Interval Watering - Interval watering is used to water at
an interval from 1 to 28 days. An interval of 1 will water
every day; an interval of 2 will water every other day, etc.
- Odd or Even Days - The sprinkler timer can be selected
to only water on Odd days or Even days. The odd/even
schedule is based on the date.
