K8000 Professional Pop-Up Gear-Drive Sprinkler

A:  The K8000 Gear Drive Sprinkler is 6.75" in height, pop up down.

A:  Yes they are 3/4 in.

A:  Bottom is a 3/4 tread..

A:  YES, WHAT A GREAT IDEA! I'M ALREADY THINKING OF A WAY TO PERMANTLY HANG ONE IN A TREE TO GIVE A QUICK WATER FOR MY FLOWERS. THANKS Hdiabs. CYN

A:  It is a 3/4 inch hole with threads, but not the right threads for a hose, but you can easily find an adapter for about a dollar to connect to your hose. There is also a spike that a sprinkler connects to the top and a hose to the side with a spike to stick in the ground to hold it all upright.

A:  Hello: This Sprinkler has a 3/4" NPT(National Pipe Thread) threaded inlet, this is not the same thread pattern as a water hose connector, the best way to use this as a temp. system is to go to the garden shop and get one of the metal Sprinkler Spikes and mount the K8000 on this using a 1/2" PVC Threaded Nipple(3 or 4 inch work well), also you will need a 3/4" to 1/2" threaded reducer bushing to screw into the Sprinkler to facilitate using the 1/2" nipple, This Spike has Standard Water Hose Inlet on the side, screw this on the Hose first and the make-up the Sprinkler set up. This can be moved at will for portable irrigation. NOTE: The Spikes also come in a two-way model to make-up multiple Sprinklers.- Hope this helps in your task. TKX.- Roy.

A:  If you are just swapping it out for an existing sprinkler, it is a very easy DIY project. If you have no sprinkler system in place, it is a major league project, with drilling a well, installing a pump, running underground feed lines all over your yard with electronic valves, all wired to an electronic timer box.... you get the picture.

A:  Plan it all on paper, buy a unit, measure it's length while connected to a pvc connector to know how deep to dig... You need to know what your GPM/water pressure.. to know how many heads to put on each zone. and when to drop pvc size down to 1/2" from 3/4" but maybe you should find a book on the subject and read it...

A:  This is an diy project, all that is needed is a precision flat head screwdriver, which is used to adjust the distance of sprinkler distances.

A:  Yes it will...did up old sprinkler and screw off and replace with new one

A:  If you are watering an area that is at least 30 ft wide. The KRain K8000 is the best. If your on city water the pressure may not be enough to run more than 2 heads at a time, Need to check your house pressure . The heads can sweep from just straight shot to 360 degree. I have a large yard and my heads are spaced every 20 feet along my property line so there is overlap I have a well pump in the end of my dock so I pull from the TN river. Very high pressure. Im able to run 5 heads that deliver 30ft sprays Hope this help Bob TN

A:  Yes. I have 34 in my 1.5 acre yard. They are the easiest to adjust of all I have tried. Easy to replace when necessary but generally last about 5 years.

A:  I would not call this a professional sprinkler head, but it will work with any system provided you have the right water flow ,pressure, and proper installation ..

A:  YES
