Heads

Repairing a Broken Sprinkler Head

A head repair starts with the water on and the nozzle in your line of sight. Grit in the screen is a cleaning. A cracked case is a replacement. A perfect head aimed at the sidewalk is an adjustment, and it does not need a new body.

Match what is already there

Spray and rotor do not interchange on a whim. The gallons have to fit the zone. We use the same family of nozzle the zone was built with unless the whole station is being re-nozzled together.

Set the height

A head below the grass gets cut by the mower. A head that stands too tall gets hit by the same mower. We set it at grade after the soil is back. Call 346-642-6161 if several heads failed the same week. That is often the mower, or a zone that stayed on and undermined them.
