- Poor Design: Lawn irrigation system design that allows sprinkler heads to spray water across sidewalks or concrete cause water to be lost to evaporation and run off.
- Wrong watering times: Running your water sprinklers in the middle of the day allows the water to evaporate before it has time to absorb in to the ground.
- Wrong water duration: Some believe short duration watering is a way to conserve water however, short shallow watering can cause turf and plants to experience stress because the shallow water can cause shallow roots.
- Dirty nozzles: Even though sprinkler heads (should) have filters underneath the nozzles, they can still pass some particles in to the nozzle. Many times these particles can be wedged in the spray nozzle causing it to mis-spray and not distribute water equally and efficiently throughout the spray pattern.
- Lack of maintenance: Sprinkler heads take a lot of abuse from lawn mowers, string trimmers and edgers. Whether it be abuse, leaky or bad sprinkler heads, all of these conditions can cause a lot of water to run down the sidewalk.
