What is the minimum equipment needed for garden irrigation? At the moment, it is only important for me to have pop-up sprinklers that start watering when the tap is turned on. Later extensions should be possible. The garden is approximately 700m2 in an approximate U shape around the house, taps are available on both sides of the U. 26 meters, 36 meters, 40 meters, 26 meters are the outer edges of the shape. Later, a well may be added as a supply.

Difficult. The configuration of your irrigation zones heavily depends on how much water your well can provide. Do you know how many sprinklers your household water supply can support (bucket test)?

You could work with the amount of water from your household water connection; it is very likely that a well can later deliver the same or more water. Then you probably have too many small zones, but better than the other way around. (However, it is also possible that your household water supply provides too little water even for small zones.)

You should already consider where your valve box will be installed, as all pipes to the garden will run from there. Of course, you can initially supply this via a hose bib and later connect it to the well. When positioning it, you should keep a) the irrigation zones and b) the possible position of the well in mind. A site plan would help here.

Are you sure that you are allowed to build a well?

Yes, it is only subject to notification; no approval is required here.

I will do the bucket test tomorrow, then I can say something about it.

The bucket test resulted in 15 seconds, so 2400 liters/hour.
