START UP IRRIGATION SPECIAL

Make sure you have a few of the 995-102 Riser Hold Up Tools in stock to "snap on" to sprinklers in areas where you may have a lot of water hammer as the system fills. For the months of April and May these tools are on sale at a 10% discount. This tool allows for a high volume of water and air to be evacuated from the system quickly and eliminates the need for removing ANY conversion assemblies from the bodies during system startup.

Here's the system startup and winterization video:
