Header Line
Draw a header line from the mani-
fold to each zone. Header lines will
be intersected with lateral lines.
S
prinkler heads should not be
i
nstalled on this line.
Use 1" Pipe
Lateral Lines
Draw lateral lines that connect the
header line to sprinkler heads.
These lines should be branching,
not circular.
Use 3/4" pipe
Select a location near a power source and where it's easy to access. You'll need to be able to
run sprinkler wire to each valve. If you select a location outside, the timer should be made for
outdoor mounting or protected with a weather resistant box.
