Answer: Sometimes Explanation: Yes, it is possible to install a sprinkler system using well water, but it depends on the well’s flow rate, pressure, pump capacity, and recovery time.
A proper evaluation is required to determine how many zones can run, what type of heads should be used, and whether a booster pump, pressure tank, or filtration system is needed.
In many cases, irrigation systems on well water are designed with fewer heads per zone and longer run times to protect the well and ensure consistent performance. |

Answer: Yes Explanation: Lawn sprinkler systems can operate from a well. The well should be examined prior to pricing and installing a lawn sprinkler system to determine the well capacity. The flow rate of the well and pressure determines the amount of zones needed to install the sprinkler system. A flow rate of 15 gallons per minute and 50 pounds of pressure is usually sufficient for average residential lot sizes.

Answer: Yes Explanation: Wells, by and large are very dependable. In some cases, irrigation systems are not favorable for a well due to low GPM. Gallons per minute is a calculation sprinkler contractors use to determine how many sprinkler heads can exist on one zone. A well that is capable of 20 GPM can easily be used for irrigation. But a well that has 3-5 GPM is not recommended unless the property size or desired irrigation area is smaller then 3000 square feet of area. |
