Hi all!!
New to this forum and new to sprinkler systems, we bought this house almost two years ago and this is the second season here.
I read somewhere that it's easy to take out a sprinkler head and to take it to Home Depot to get a matching one. I don't know where to start to take the head out. If I have the system running the head would pop up and maybe I could grasp it. Is it a basic thing like unscrewing it?
Also, I am afraid that since this head is at the bottom of a slope it is draining the water pressure needed for the rotating head in the middle of the lawn. I'm getting some serious brown patches.
Any help would be appreciated, where I live it costs almost $100 to have the guys come winterize or open for Spring. Last year the guy replaced a head and charged $25 just for the one. Water is also a good $50+ per month....I was paying that per quarter at my other town.
Thanks
