I turn my system off during the summer months and rely on the rain. My lawn is always green and I save a lot of money. On rare occasions I might have to turn it on manually if it hasn`t rained for a week or more. If I go away for any lenght of time, I`ll put it back on auto.

Better Way to Set times
One reponse was correct, it depends on the head types. It also depends on what soil is under the sod; each lot is a bit different. I went to clemson Univ's ag site and read zoysia grass here needs 1 and 1/2 inches of water a week. Take the time to set out a plastic container and run your sprinklers to see how much depth you get in the time you run. Then buy a $4 rain gauge and check what Mother nature gives us, and add more if needed. Since I did this I have cut my irrigation water tremendously. It's definitely worth the time.

agree that is the best way
