What is a "sprinkler"?
A sprinkler is a device used to water plants or lawns by spraying water over an area. It typically has a rotating or stationary head that releases water in a pattern, covering a specific area. Sprinklers can be connected to a hose or a watering system and are adjustable to control the amount of water and the spread. They are commonly used to keep grass, flowers, and other plants hydrated, especially during dry weather. Sprinklers are popular for their convenience in watering large areas efficiently.
