Ans: The general rule of thumb is to set up the sprinklers a couple of feet away from the boundary of your house. This is because of the fact that water sprinklers cover a 360-degree area around each sprinkler head and might end up splashing water on your walls’ exterior and windows. While it may not feel like a problem, in the beginning. But, it can certainly get on your nerves if you constantly have to clean your windows after every sprinkling session.
