What size service line will I need?

For an existing sprinkler system, we recommend that you take the largest zone and calculate the number of heads in that zone multiplied by the gallons per minute each head requires to determine the total gallon per minute requirement for that zone. A ¾” service line provides 20 gpm, a 1” service line provides 50 gpm and a 2” service line provides 160 gpm.
