Know before you buy
The stainless steel riser provides superior durability and resistance to wear compared to plastic models, especially in sandy soils or high-traffic areas where grit can cause damage.
Yes, the I-20 is highly versatile. With a throw distance ranging from 17 to 46 feet and 34 different nozzle options, you can customize the output to suit both tight corners and expansive turf.
FloStop allows you to shut off the water flow to an individual sprinkler head without turning off the entire system. This is particularly useful for performing maintenance or repairs on a single unit while the rest of your irrigation system continues to run.
Yes, this unit is designed to handle both part-circle and full-circle operation in a single model. You can easily adjust the arc from 50 to 360 degrees to match your specific landscape layout.
The built-in drain-check valve prevents low-head drainage, which occurs when water leaks out of the lowest sprinkler head after the system shuts off. This prevents puddling around the head and keeps your landscape from becoming oversaturated in low-lying areas.
Not at all. The QuickCheck Arc Mechanism allows you to adjust the arc settings quickly and easily using standard irrigation tools, even while the sprinkler is in operation.
