Hunter PGP Rotor0
The Hunter PGP is by far my most favorite adjustable rotary sprinkler head for residential sprinkler systems. This gear driven sprinkler runs very quietly and smoothly. It comes with either 12 standard or 7 low angle nozzles to get different spray patterns, and is very easy to adjust the radius, from about 5 degrees to a full 360 degrees.
Each head comes with a small key that makes it very easy to adjust the degree of rotation and to adjust the distance to some degree, depending on the nozel you are using.
When setting head and making adjustments, you can just rotate it by hand forward to the next stop and then back to the previous stop to make quicker adjustments. Many heads do not have this feature, and although you do not need to adjust them very often, it sure is more convenient then waiting for it to rotate back and forth on it’s own and getting things wet that you don’t want to (like your kids or something) in the process.
It has a very nice seal with a rubber top so dirt always gets pushed out when the head comes down. The oldest system I have installed is almost 8 years ago and I used the Hunter PGP’s. To my knowledge none have ever gotten clogged or quite working in any of the home systems I have done.
I have been very pleased with this rotor and would recommend it to anyone.
