Looking at my pool side paradise, I can’t help but sweat my water bill. My lawns wrap around my pool, and I also have a huge front lawn. My water bill is presently 20% above my budget and is becoming quite spendy. FYI: I don’t have a leak.
I’ve been looking at rotary nozzles, and my water utility gives me a $4/nozzle rebate.
As a test, I’ve purchased and installed 6 of these, in a 180sf lawn strip. I used the Rain Bird RVAN rotary nozzles from Home Depot and they screw right into my existing 1/2” pop-up spray/mist sprinklers. The The RVans are female thread, and I have a mix of these and the Toro male threaded 1/2” sprinkler heads. The test strip is doing well, and the run off is much less as the nozzles are easily adjustable and we have heavy winds and the stream out of the nozzle lands on the lawn instead of misting onto the driveway or sidewalks.
Has anyone else used these rotary nozzles? I’m hoping for some input on the Toro Precision models.
There are 4 manufacturers that are approved for the rebate:
