Not very informative.

All of my sprinkler heads are attached directly to the distribution PVC pipe via risers, and several are stuck at an angle. The funny pipe / flex pipe connection is clearly the better way to do it, since I can move the head or rotate or angle it exactly where I want it instead of needing to connect to a fixed attachment point (which may be tilted away from vertical). Thanks!

I have four zones. One three and four work fine. Zone two has not enough pressure to pop up the sprinkler heads.

Confused about arc length or radius adjustment.

Thank you for the KISS explanation! Made my day better!👍🏻

Mine act weird. One zone did not shut. I opened the air valve, it is different that the video. It shuts off by doing so, but I hear water flow noise. Next, I tried this with another zone, but when I tried to shut the air valve for the other zone, this time new zone turns on an never shuts. Had to turn off full irrigation system. Any idea?

Thank you, good sir.

What is so humorous about this pipe?

Wow Ty

Excellent video. Only problem i have with hiring a pro is the Sprinkler Master in my area charges $189/hr plus a $50 service charge. I dunno if they are part of y'all but that is a hefty price to not have any guarantee that they are able to fix a problem in that time. That's what happened to me at least. They couldn't find the busted sprinkler head/line to replace in my yard after a fence installation by another contractor and they couldn't figure out why my flower bed sprinkler zone wasn't flowing with pressure. So $430 bucks and the only thing they did accomplish was moving an irrigation line 6ft to get out of the way for a deck project. That's hard to justify

Betcha this would work...if I could find the valves for the zone in question.🤨 Buried under mulch? 🤔

Questions: 1) Funny Pipe vs PVC Pipe?; 2) When should one use Funny Pipe vs PVC Pipe? ; and 3) When should one use PVC pipe vs Funny Pipe?

Can't see exactly where you inserted adjustment tool.

Best description!!!

I hear "funny" pipe is the same as todays "Flex" Pipe which makes more sense.

Thank you! This solved the mystery in my backyard - saved hundred$!!!

Help nothing

Ads for 54 second video? Wow

If your funny or has a fitting in it. Can you carefully use a heat gun to remove the fitting?

useless , I turned it right and it kelp turning and never stoped

Called in a sprinkler guy and he found one of the valves was plugged up and was affecting the other zones - still not sure why - but that fixed it. Go to the zone that initiates the problem and take the top off the valve and see if it is plugged up.

Thank you. Super helpful.

But what if the swing pipe (the barbed part broke? How do I just remove that.

Thanks for the help!

I am back up an running thanks!!!

funny pipe length should not exceed two or three feet due to excessive pressure loss. for longer lengths should use one inch from exisiting head then use funny pipe for the last foot or so to place head in correct position

Hi , i have a couple on the line that want ti suck down instead of popping up ( 3 out of the 6 are popping up the other 3 seem to be sucking back down) Weird hey?? Regards Andrew

This is the least instructional video on youtube, and the picture on the video isn't even the same model as the video itself... do better

This was super helpful; thank you!

Worst explanation video ever🤷‍♂️

Thanks

I have strange problem , when I start my sprinkles system early in the morning or beafore become night it work fine , but when sun rising some valves stop to work and don’t stop water and on some zone few zone work together . Wherr is problem in rainbird controller or in valves ?

Huh?

brand new valve of different type, won't turn off. Went back to orbit exact model, still won't turn off . Didn't get dirt it the lines, two different valves same issue. Any ideas.

use less.

Super helpful!! Thanks very much😊

Awesome video. Thank you. If you tilt your hat brim up, there won’t be a shadow on your eyes.

Thank you!

Excellent comprehensive explanation of most potential issues with irrigation heads. Thank you!

What if all the heads in the zone don’t pop up, I have to lift one for 10 seconds then it builds up pressure and the other 3 pop up automatically

Can you still run the sprinkler system with this issue until you are able to get it t fixed ?

I sure wish you would list the model and I wish the one you showed on the ground and the one you adjusted where the same model. You make it so hard to search for what I am looking for. Not what I wanted.

Angle, not radius. But thanks, I figured it out.

Can I put a heavy rock on top. To prevent it from popping up? I have one pop up head that I don't want it to pop up

What if it’s one zone 2 of 4 having an issue coming up?

Great video! Easy steps and solved my problem ❤

Where do I get one of those shirts?

So that adjusts the arc length, what about adjusting the start point?

My problem is one of my zones will activate when any other zone is activated ?
