Your irrigation usage compared to your potable water usage is totally irrelevant . Also check to see if your irrigation controller is switched to bypass the rain sensor. Your sensor may not work anyway but you can try to manually run the irrigation after a big rain and it won’t run if your sensor is on and in good working order. As others suggested two days a week should be plenty at 50 minutes on three zones total
