What is the role of the Zone in irrigation systems?

The role of a Zone in irrigation systems is fundamentally linked to managing the irrigation of different areas independently within a larger system. Zones allow for specific control over various sections of a landscape or garden, which ensures that each area receives the appropriate amount of water based on its unique needs. For instance, certain plants may require more water due to their species or location (like sun exposure), while others may need less.

This targeted approach not only improves efficiency but also conserves water and promotes healthier plant growth by avoiding over- or under-watering. The ability to adjust the irrigation settings for each Zone based on the requirements of the plants or soil types that are present maximizes the effectiveness of the irrigation system overall.
