Pop-Up Spray Head Installation
Outdoor Legacy installs compact pop-up spray bodies with spray nozzles for turf irrigation. The layout is designed around slope, sun exposure, plant type, drainage, and how the property is used, along with available pressure—not a one-size-fits-all template.
Designing the zones
Create separate irrigation zones for hydrozones with different plant-water requirements, exposure, soil, slope, or microclimate. Turf in full sun and shaded planting beds have different needs; combining them can leave one overwatered or the other too dry.
Where clay, compaction, slope, or observed runoff limits infiltration, divide the required zone run time into shorter cycles with soak periods between them. Set the maximum cycle from the observed time until runoff begins; cycle-and-soak should not automatically increase total run time.
Spray-head layout and coverage
Outdoor Legacy’s turf-irrigation layouts use pop-up spray heads. Spray heads should be placed around the edge of the irrigated turf, aimed onto the landscape rather than pavement, and spaced for head-to-head coverage—the spray from one head reaches the next head. Nozzle pattern, radius, precipitation rate, and operating pressure should fit the zone so water is distributed evenly without excessive misting or runoff.
Drip where drip belongs
For narrow or complex planting beds, drip or microirrigation can reduce runoff, wind drift, and evaporation when emitters are selected and placed for the plants’ mature root zones.
Keep drip or microirrigation on separate zones from pop-up spray heads because their pressure, flow, and application characteristics differ. Plant water needs, sun, wind, slope, and soil conditions should also guide how zones are separated.
Expanding an existing system
Not every job is a new install. Adding a zone for a new bed, extending coverage to a section of yard that never had it, or reworking a zone that was wrong from the beginning are all common. We work with what is already in the ground where it makes sense to.
What we will tell you honestly is when an old system has reached the point that patching it costs more over a few seasons than replacing it.

Questions we hear about sprinkler installation
What kind of spray heads do you install?
For turf irrigation, Outdoor Legacy installs compact pop-up spray bodies fitted with spray nozzles selected for the required pattern, radius, precipitation rate, and operating pressure.
Do I need a permit or backflow device?
Backflow requirements vary by municipality and system. The applicable local requirements should be confirmed for the property before installation work is scoped.
Can you add a zone to my existing system?
A zone can be added when the water supply, pressure, existing piping, and controller have enough capacity. Those conditions must be checked before an expansion is recommended.
How disruptive is an installation?
Installation can disturb turf and planting areas where lines are routed. The amount of disruption depends on the layout, soil, access, and installation method, so the route and restoration scope should be discussed before work begins.
