Redwitch,

It really depends on the size of the lot and how long the water is running for each zone. We have a designer on a large cul-de-sac lot in Bonita and we actually used 13,000 gallons the first month or two. We were only watering once a week, but the time for each zone was fairly long. It was July-August and I was concerned about the new lawn, which did not look good. Once it cooled off a little and the lawn looked better, I started watering for a shorter period of time each week and our bill reflected it.

HTH
