I can't remember if I've mentioned this before, but until now I've not been able to link videos. It might be of interest to some with small gardens like ours.

I put these in about 8 years ago. They run on mains pressure I think the heads were about £7 each on eBay. Total cost including the speed-fit pipe work, about £50.
Not affected by frost in the winter as it's all plastic.

I put them in, in about three hours one afternoon.

"Dry run" well... wet run to see if they would work.



"V" shaped wedges removed and replaced over the pipework. Scars disappeared in two weeks.



Control valve. I had some sand and cement to remake the path after laying the supply pipe under it.



Here's the video.

Very cool @DoghouseRiley! Thank you for posting it, and thank you for posting the video too! Looks wonderful.

The advantage of living where the ground never freezes.
It looks like you have excellent water pressure also.

BTW, it looks like you did an excellent job.

When I saw your first picture I thought... "Cool he's running it above ground." lol

My sprinkler "system" is similar but I've buried garden hoses connected to standard Rainbird sprinklers on a spike. Used to have great water pressure to run two heads at once. Not so much any more. So installed a Y joint so I can turn them on and off individually. Also use a timer at the water source. The hoses have lasted more than a decade. (Our ground doesn't freeze)
