SPRINKLER TALK FORUM - You Got Questions, We've Got Answers

I have about 30 psi (I think) powering 4 Rainbird 600 pop up spray heads.

It's only 1 zone as I have a tiny yard. I have to "assist" the pop ups to come up when the water goes on and after that they work great! i know I don't have any debris in the line or the sprinker heads.

If there is enough pressure for them to stay up after I "help" them up, does that mean there is enough pressure to pop them up. They are brand new heads. I'm wondering if another brand (orbit or toro) would have less tension on the spring.

Is there a pop up head sprayer that has a very "low tension" spring that will allow the pop ups to come up easier?

I would love to have feedback as this is a frustrating problem.
