FYI - your sprinklers can easily use twice as much water as they were designed to distribute if the internal gaskets/seals are worn. The water can gush out from the bottom of the pop up sprinklers and it is readily visible when they are running. The repair kits are inexpensive ($ 2 or so) and are not difficult to install - or hire out for repair.
