Which sprinkler is better Hunter or Rainbird?

Which sprinkler is better Hunter or Rainbird?

Hunter products are slightly more durable than Rainbird. They can handle a greater PSI which is important when it comes to water pressure, winterization and extreme weather. Sprinkler heads sit in the ground which experience extreme temperatures. Hunter Controllers are way easier to program than Rainbird.

What is the difference between red and blue Hunter nozzles?

The red nozzles have both higher and lower flow rates than what’s offered in the blue nozzles, but they deliver water very efficiently. The blue nozzles were developed as a result of our customers telling us that they didn’t like the “look” of the spray pattern on the red nozzles.

Why is my Hunter sprinkler head not rotating?

The most common reason for a sprinkler to stop rotating is the accumulation of debris in the filter. When in operation, water turns a small turbine in the base of the sprinkler, which drives a series of gears that cause the head to rotate. The Hunter gear drive mechanism is sealed from dirt and debris.

Are Hunter sprinkler heads any good?

The Hunter Pro Spray body is a quality sprinkler body, with a good reinforced wiper seal, and a retraction spring. I don’t recommend pop-up heights under 3″ for any sprinklers as they do not lift the nozzle high enough to clear most grass, even when closely mowed.
