| Jun 8, 2018 at 5:32 | comment | added | Ed Beal | As @asmyldof stated reduce the over all flow and the pressure increases thus the leak. For a simple field test of this loosen a hose that is running with no restriction until it starts to leak at the faucet then tighten slightly for no leak, now step on the hose it will leak because stepping on one sprinkler reduces the flow and increases the pressure thus the leak. | |

not so theory as much as practical experience

| May 22, 2015 at 2:39 | comment | added | rjt | The idea of pressure reduction is slow to get to these parts. Wish for the days when everything was overengineered and overbuilt. | |
| May 22, 2015 at 2:30 | comment | added | Ecnerwal | 85 PSI? If your sprinkler system does not already include a pressure reducing valve (or regulator) it probably should...for garden hoses, there are regulators that screw onto the faucet available for $15 or less in fixed pressures such as 25 and 50 PSI. | |
