The size of sprinkler pipe you should use for your irrigation system depends on the water flow and pressure needed. Generally, a 1-inch pipe is recommended for larger systems or areas with high water demand, while a 3/4-inch pipe is suitable for smaller systems or areas with lower water demand.

Automatic fire sprinkler system?
An automatic sprinkler system is a system in which sprinkler heads are fixed in piping system were pipe is fully filled with water or air under pressure and, at a certain calibrated temperature, sensing elements in sprinkler head breaks and allows water flow. Other types of systems rely upon electrical sensors (smoke and heat sensors, or manual switches) to initiate the flow or to pressurize the pipe so that sprinkler heads activated by the heat will flow water. Somewhat more rare systems, for extremely high hazards such as rubber tire storage in a warehouse, may have sprinkler heads that are always "open", allowing the entire room to be flooded when the pipe is pressurized.
How can I effectively create a DIY irrigation system using PVC pipe with holes?
To create a DIY irrigation system using PVC pipe with holes, you can follow these steps: Cut the PVC pipe to the desired length for your garden or plant beds. Drill small holes along the length of the pipe using a drill bit. Connect one end of the pipe to a water source, such as a hose or a water tank. Lay the pipe along the plants or garden beds, ensuring that the holes are facing towards the plants. Turn on the water source to allow water to flow through the pipe and irrigate the plants through the holes. This DIY irrigation system can help efficiently water your plants and garden beds.
