Tip #17: Sprayers and Your Irrigation System

Choosing a sprayer is as important as choosing an rotor for your irrigation system. Nozzles become extremely important as well as placement of sprinkler system sprayers. Nozzles will dictate how far the water will go. If you chose to put your sprayers at the back of plantings, you will need to check for growth every year and probably have to change the sprayers every so often (add risers, etc.). It is our preference not to sprayer towards a home, however, due to varying landscape sometimes you have to place sprayers spraying towards a home. Again nozzles play an important role her to ensure that water isn't being sprayed directly into the foundation of your home.
