Gpm question

Am I to understand that if I have a gpm of 8 coming from a psi of about 60 that I would be ok installing 5 spray heads with a 1.25 gpm all on one zone?

Yes except water usage in the house must be very low when the sprinklers are on

Thanks,

Typically if you have 8 GPM i would install usung 6 GPM as your rate to leave some water for home usage, otherwise when you run water in the house, they will affect your sprinkler system operation.
