The Components Views above and below are an indication of what makes up a residential watering system. The numbers on the diagrams are product codes that can be entered directly into the ‘Search Box’ to take you to that component in our Online Shop<\/a>, while the easiest way to select a Garden Sprinkler head is by selecting from our sprinkler info<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

Both Contractors and DIYs alike normally use 25mm black Poly pressure pipe (which has a bore size of approx 20mm) from the water connection point to the on\/off manual or automatic control valves, then 19mm black “low density” poly pipe from the valves out to the sprinklers. Pipe with a bore size of approx 25mm is the next size up, for those people with higher flowrates (which means you may be able to run more sprinklers at once) and\/or longer pipe runs where you would lose a lot of pressure in smaller pipe.<\/p>\n

There are three main options of connecting to your water supply:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Connecting straight to the Tap with pressure pipe, low density pipe, manual multi-outlet distributors, manual timers or battery-operated automatic timers.<\/li>\n
  2. Adding a 2nd Tap to your existing Tap for your Irrigation system, so that you still have a Tap for general use.<\/li>\n
  3. Connecting into your house mainline, somewhere between the water meter and the front of the house. In Brisbane, this mainline is usually 20mm or 25mm Poly pipe, Copper or Galvanised Iron.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The most popular connection point is the front Garden Tap which is usually connected straight to the house mainline, and therefore should still have a reasonable flowrate without having to cut into your mainline. This is Option 2, and the one shown in the Components View.<\/p>\n

    Additionally, there are a number of ways of controlling the on\/off operation of your different sprinkler zones:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Manual twin tap and multi-outlet distributors connected straight to your Garden Tap. The final shut-off operation should be controlled by the Garden Tap as these valves are not pressure rated.<\/li>\n
    2. Manual in-line valves. The final shut-off operation should be controlled by the Garden Tap as these valves are not pressure rated.<\/li>\n
    3. Manual pressure-rated on\/off Valves.<\/li>\n
    4. Battery-operated single & multi-station automatic Controllers and Valves. In most cases these are of a lesser quality than the 24Vac Controllers.<\/li>\n
    5. 24Vac automatic Controllers and Valves. The Controller plugs into your 240Volt power point then has a Transformer reducing the power supply to a safe 24Vac.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The most popular method of automatic control is Option 5.<\/p>\n

      The method of manual control is purely a personal decision, however, if you are looking at converting to automatic at a later date, go with Option 3.<\/p>\n

      Option 5 is shown in the Components View.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Point of Interest:<\/h4>\n

      There are really only 3 sections to an irrigation system<\/p>\n
