Rotating sprinkler nozzles with pressure regulating devices apply water more slowly and uniformly than standard sprinkler heads which helps prevent overwatering and runoff. Instead of an overly strong, solid spray of water, rotating sprinkler nozzles slowly rotate with multiple, separate trajectory streams of water at an approximate rate of .4 inch per hour rather than a spray's 1.5 inches of water per hour, allowing less water to evaporate and more water to penetrate the ground.
Because more penetrates the ground, rotating sprinkler nozzles with pressure regulating devices are estimated to use 20% less water than conventional spray heads.
