![]() So you've got Sunday, you've got Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. So with how often you will notice you've got these little square boxes, these square boxes on this particular brand mean that that day is set to run. If you see one drying out versus the others, you can just adjust each zone individually instead of everything at once. So you're going to want to go through each station, set these how you want just based off of your experience with the lawn. However, if you have the heads that are rotating around just spinning, you probably need to up the time, sometimes up to twice as long, just because there's less heads, they're covering a lot more grass, and they're not constantly spraying the same area. So if you have the heads that are just constantly spraying a mist in the same area, they just pop up, and they constantly spray that same area, you're going to want to run for a little less time. The second one was 30 minutes.I'm guessing that this is just because there's several different types of heads. You can go up or down to make adjustments there, and you're going to hit the right arrow, which takes it to station two. So you can see how it says station number one, 15 minutes. So 4:00 AM perfect time there, and then your runtime. So I typically like to end the run time, so all of the zones are finishing up just as the sun is rising. Depending on how long your sprinklers run, you don't want to start it late at night because you're going to get water sitting on the surface of your lawn all night long, which is really bad because it could cause fungus and other major problems.But you don't necessarily want to be running when it's hot, and the sun is out because a lot of that water's going to be evaporated. Start time is 4:00 AM, which is actually what I recommend right around that range. We're going to flip over to your start time. So this is basically saying that it's August 1st, 2019. So then you're on the month and then you're going to go to the day. Then you can hit the right arrow and then you can set, if you see that M meaning the month, and you can just hit the up or down arrows to adjust the year, the month, the day. The next one is setting the date, so set the year. So you just scroll through, find the time. ![]() We literally just hit up and down to set your time. So let's rotate through each and just show you how to set this up. So leaving it on auto just means it's going to run its program the way you've got to set up, it's going to do its thing. So whatever is lined up with this arrow is what it's set to. ![]() But if it's working well then I wouldn't change it by any means, but it's just not something we'd recommend as a Salt Lake sprinkler repair.Let's go through a quick run through on how to set this thing up. While it's not necessarily the brand we recommend, if you have this, it's not a problem. It's pretty common for people to buy these at Lowe's or Home Depot. ![]() Let's continue to talk about sprinkler timers and how to set them up and make adjustments. The more photos or context to the situation will help us identify the problem and propose some solutions.Hey guys, hope you're doing well. Other photos should include close-ups of the grass or weed in question: such as this, this, or this. One photo should contain enough information for people to understand the immediate area around the problem (dense shade, extremely sloped, etc.). You can upload to for free and it's easy to do.
