START UP YOUR IRRIGATION SLOWLY 
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. 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.
