I installed my in-ground system and it’s such a time saver. I also save water because there’s no over spray or run-off. I used metric (blue-line) poly from behind the tap to the manifold and then LD Poly from the solenoids to each zone. All 25mm to increase flow. Hunter Pro Spray bodies with MP Rotator nozzles and I used articulated risers on recommendation from an irrigation expert. They make it very easy to change the height of the sprinkler heads once the ground has settled.
The MP’s are great. I also installed them at my parents place and they have terrible water pressure. I found it easier to just bypass the garden tap, install a ball valve for isolation and a dual check valve to prevent back flow. I’ve got a Smart Controller (Skydrop) and I installed a B-Hyve Bluetooth tap timer at my parents place.
I purchased everything from Dural Irrigation online except for the poly, which I got through my local irrigation store. They just couldn’t compete with the online pricing from Dural for everything else...
