Q:This is male on on both ends, how do you connect it? The sprinkler heads I have are female on the end, is there an adapter? The adapter would need to be female on both ends to connect to the water line underground.

Answer This Question

A:  The riser is meant to be male on both ends so it will screw into both the pipe and the sprinkler head. This Youtube video will give good instructions on how to use it at the 2:30 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKdqEnGtMVo

    Answer This Question

    A:  We recommend using a pipe cutter to cut this riser.

      A:  Hacksaw will work, but I use PVC pipe cutters as a very quick easy solution.

        A:  Use a basic PVC pipe cutter.  A hack saw will also work.  It is pretty soft plastic so it cuts easily.  Use a fine tooth saw blade if you don’t have a pipe cutter.  Use a file or razor blade to clean up the cut edge.

            Q:do you need to use tape to prevent leaking?
            by|Jun 8, 2019
            2 Answers
            Answer This Question

            A:  Thanks for your question. I agree with the previous answer that taping the sprinkler riser connection generally isn't needed. In my testing (I have capped a sprinkler head to observe without nozzle spray), these connections may leak a few drops a minute when hand-tightened. As stated in the other answer, this is in the part of the system that is not continuously pressurized (only when a zone is active), and very slight leaking doesn't affect the sprinkler head range or flow rate significantly. And as mentioned, do tape the supply side connections such as on the water supply side of valves, since they are under constant pressure (the risers aren't used in that application - just mentioning as an example).

            by|Aug 31, 2020

            A:  I normally don’t tape underground sprinkler system joints and have never had problems. Figure that this is a sprinkler system, and is downstream from the zone valve, so no pressure on joint unless the zone is running, at which time I WANT water in that area. I Do tape threaded joints on lines that are pressurized all the time.

            Exactly what I needed to repair a broken riser and a 10 pack means I’ll have plenty if another one breaks.
