LAWN SPRINKLER HEADS OR RISER BROKEN / AMISS:
This is evidenced by the fact that the lawn or vegetation shows signs of
spot drying or by the fact that broken heads or other defects are
readily visible. Materials to repair sprinkler systems are
available at all Building Supply Stores and Home Improvement Centers.
Most any property owner should be able to upgrade or repair their
sprinklers Broken riser pipes are usually replaced with plastic nipples
so they will be easy to remove the next time they are broken. Broken
nipples are removed with the use of an "easy-out," a tool
designed especially for removing threaded objects which are broken off
inside other fittings Purchase an "easy-out" at the same place
you purchase the sprinkler supplies You may prefer to call on the
services of a Landscape Contractor to help with these repairs.
