Rotor Series: Adjusting my Hunter Sprinkler System Rotors

Adjusting the arc and radius of a rotor is an easy task. Most residential rotors are adjusted the same way. There are two adjustments that can be made on rotors, arc and radius. Arc: The degrees of coverage of a sprinkler from one side of pattern to the other. A 90-degree arc would be a quarter-circle sprinkler. In other words, the arc is how far to the left and to the right the sprinkler will be adjusted to rotate. Radius: The distance of throw from the sprinkler head to the furthest point of water application. For more information, please visit our web site www.innovativeirrigationspecialists.com.

There are several different types of watering lawn sprinklers one can use. Each suited to do a specific task. The right one for your situation comes down to just that. Your situation.

Oscillating Sprinkler

For medium to large lawns oscillating sprinklers are good. They can cover a large area. One drawback however, is the spray can be affected by wind gusts. On the other hand they're great fun for the kids to run through.

Another of the watering lawn sprinklers well suited for medium sized yards is the rotary sprinkler.

If you're got the water pressure and a large expanse, pulsating sprinklers might fill the bill. You may have seen these in operation on golf courses as they sweep a stream of water across the targeted grassy area? Actually they lay on the water more slowly than do oscillating sprinklers. And their spray is less likely to be affected by the wind.

Turning to smaller lawns, you might consider a stationary sprinkler. These generally have a smaller spray pattern making them ideal for tighter areas. Some sprinklers even let you vary that pattern too.

Myself I'm always fascinated by the moving lawn sprinklers. Looks like a toy tractor in many cases. These trace the pattern of the hose which guides them across your lawn. They're powered by water pressure which turns the rear wheels which I think is pretty nifty.

So those are what? five types of lawn sprinklers. One should work well in your situation.

Now during periods of restricted water usage you might be wise to consider going with a soaker hose. Basically there are hundreds of small holes exactingly punched along the sides of the hose. The water seeps out and quenches your lawns thirst over time with no moving parts.

Regardless of which type of watering lawn sprinklers you use, remember that it's best to water in the evening. Doing so cuts down on evaporation and gives your grass time to take a deep drink. Which is the basic idea isn't it?
