May 12, 20196 yr Anyone seen sprinkler heads for sale, the type that are used on golf courses that are buried in the ground & piped in? The dry season has been long here this year, want to "expand" the sprinkler system as gets boring moving sprinklers around every other day for a couple of hours, not to mention tend to forget that I have left them running! Have a couple off above ground ones I run directly off the submersible pump but not possible/feasible to cover all garden like this.
May 12, 20196 yr Two quality brands. Go here and study https://www.rainbird.com/homeowners/benefits-irrigation then go to Lazada and search Rainbird to purchase products. Or go here and study https://www.hunterindustries.com/residential-system-design-guide then go to Lazada and search Hunter to purchase products. Lots of help on the tube.

Thanks for that, Rainbird seem to have what I need - price is a LOT higher than I expected, all I need is two "pipe runs" comprising of three sprinklers, fed by two separate 3/4" pipe lines running three sprinklers at a time, each with a manual valve, that will cover all I need & KISS - keep it simple, need to work out spray area and area covered.

Lazada is loaded with Thai jokers hoping someone will buy their over priced item. Also beware of the never ending special promotion and crazy discount amounts. I assume you plan to use popup sprinklers of some kind. Just be sure your water supply can handle chosen jet sizes.

Thanks for the articles, good reading, ordered some Rain Bird sprinkler heads, lucky I have a good water supply that is independent of household supply. Lazada prices are usually good - not for sprinkler heads, by far the most expensive, price ranged from ~800 (ebay) - 6,400 (Lazada) Baht for the same single item.
