Irrigation Zone
Meta: What is an irrigation zone, and why is it important when planning your lawn’s irrigation system? Learn more about this and other lawn sprinkler system terms in the SoCal Sprinklers glossary.
An irrigation zone (a.k.a. a lawn sprinkler zone) is a group of sprinklers connected to the same irrigation valve and watering a specific area of your lawn. Zones are determined by assessing each area’s watering needs, with a variety of sprinklers spaced out to provide proper water coverage without wasting water.
