Actually you can create any remote area shape you'd like, and individually assign areas of coverage of various sizes for each head. The biggest area we've ever calc'd with it was 5000 Sf and the spacing wasn't symmetrical, just that the smallest area of coverage for an individual sprinkler head was 80 Sf and the largest 120. Yeah the system overflowed quite a bit, but what you gona do.

It assigns the area of coverage for ALL heads in the remote area by dividing the size by the number of heads. I quit looking at it as a serious program at that point. Actually I heard they dropped their hydraulic program. They are mechanical engineers and that is the focus of their primary software.

As a stand alone (non-cad) program what else is out there? I am aware of (and have used) THE hydraulic program.

We're supposed to be looking at it in place of HASS.
