Hi Roberto check out our Hunter Advanced Programing video on our channel or at smartirrigation.com

Thanks for watching! For the video we decided to use the actual terms used to describe the parts of a circle since these heads water in a circle (or part of a circle). So the radius of the circle is the length of the spray, and the arc of the circle is what portion of the circle is being watered (such as 90° arc, 180° arc, etc). This is typically the language used by manufactures as well. But I totally understand the confusion! I sometimes think of arc as distance as well (like the arc on an arrow, but then im not thinking in terms of a circle on a horizontal plane). Sorry for the confusion, we just though if there is going to be confusion one way or another, the technical language would be proper. But we'll try to make that more clear in future videos.

Yes they are compatible.

? What is this about?

Hi I would just scroll past that and set the days of the week to water instead . We have an advanced programming video on the Hunter Controlers that set the same. If you want to learn more about that more that advanced feature.

If the spray has a stong flow coming out of it, It would not be a pressure or flow problem. In that case you probably have a head that is two low (deep) in the ground or it is a 2 inch popup or similar but in either case you would need the head, raised and replaced, or replaced if the head is just a short 2 inch.

@@SmartIrrigation1 Thanks so much, I appreciate your answer!

Also you are right, the nozzles change how far the sprinkler shoots (which would be its radius).

That is correct I'm an Irrigation service Technician . Working on brand new copper pipe like most youtube videos show is much easier to get great looking results fast but as long as the repair is one that will last for decades that is a good in my opinion. I have never had one fail in 40 years of doing a few per season.

Glad it helped! Your very welcome!

You're very welcome!

Sounds like you have a pressure issue. You shouldn't have to pull them up. Rotators may be a possible solution but I wouln't know without flow and nozzle usage calculations. You may want to contact an irrigation professional in your area. Google reviews can help you find a good one. Or DIY study our information website at smartirrigation.com for design and nozzle selection info.

You are welcome!

The regular black heads aren't pressure regulated, so the pressure is just what your system happens to have (many many factors affect this). With the black being unregulated, that would mean if your system had 50+ psi, your rotators might actually spray further with the black head rather than the grey head. Changing to a 40PRS head will reduce the distance if your system has pressure over 40 psi, or won't change the pressure if your system already is running at or below 40 psi. Hopefully that helps

Hi, the watering days screen shouldn't say the "Hold > to start". This is what would be displayed on the manual watering menu, where you can run zones manually by holding the right arrow down. So if I understand things correctly, something might be wrong with your controller? It would be helpful to see a picture but we can't do that over the comments here. If you find anything out be sure to let us know

Hi, we actually created a video on adding a 2nd program (or just adding a 2nd start time) in a new video on advanced programming. Check out our new video! It is currently for a hunter controller but the steps are similar to a rainbird controller (you just might need to use this current video as a reference). Hopefully this helps!

The old impact heads called Rainbird Maxipaws but they have different issues and some large sports field rotors but they are 5 times the price. A new Rainbird 5000 for the first few months has a slip clutch so they won't need digging. That feature doesn't last however.

They can't become full unless they are the 360 model. Check out smartirrigation.com Rainbird R-VAN Rotary Nozzel selction article under the maintenance part of the site for more info on your choices.

These are a very good solution for watering a garden box, and is what we would use if you didn't want drip within the box. Other options would be drip micro-sprays (although they spray less far), and spray nozzles are another option but generally we prefer these rotators. Hopefully that helps, and let us know how it goes!

Raising heads is typically done by replacing the current nipple that connects the spray body to the lateral irrigation line and putting in a longer nipple, but that all depends a bit on how the system is set up. if you would like us to do a video on that let us know in the comments!

Some heads are only 360 degree heads, designed to only spray in a full circle. However, if you have an adjustable PGP, you should be able to use the tool and turn it counter clockwise in the adjustment slot to reduce the arc of the circle that it waters. Hope this helps!

The hunter I20s are great heads as well, very similar to the PGP Ultras. Glad you like them!

Your welcome and I'm glad it helped!!
