I have no idea how many sprinkler heads we have but we're on an interior designer lot which is approx 5525 sq ft and have five irrigation zones. We've lived here for three years and the irrigation portion of our water bill has never been above $20 per month. For the calendar year 2011 our total irrigation costs have been $112.00. We manually turn it off when we're getting rain and run it twice a week when it's dry. Our lawn is in great shape.

I can't imagine paying $100 or more a month just to water the lawn.
