How many stations do I need on an irrigation controller?

Count every independently controlled valve (zone), then add 1–2 spare stations for future beds or repairs. Typical homes run 4–12 zones; larger landscapes and commercial sites often need 12–54+ stations. Match the controller’s max stations (and any expansion modules) to that number—do not undersize and daisy-chain unrelated areas on one valve.
