Why Do the District's Sprinklers Run When It Is Raining?
We have received several questions on why the District's irrigation runs sometimes while it is raining. More rain does mean less watering, however, that does not mean the District’s sprinklers will be off during those rains. The irrigation systems are equipped with Smart Sensors that detect precipitation. Once the rain accumulation hits a preset depth, the system will turn to an automatic 2-day rain delay. This means that the irrigation system could be running while it’s raining until the preset depth is triggered on the sensor.
How do I report broken sprinkler heads? Please email the District at info@kinstonmd.live with the location of the head and photo if possible.
