I Just Got the ROLLS-ROYCE of Irrigation Systems

- In this video, we will show you the BEST Irrigation System on the market made by Hunter Industries and exactly what goes into having a professional in ground irrigation system installed.
With a Hunter irrigation system is installed, you'll never have to drag a hose pull out a bunch of sprinklers again. Also you will never guess how much water you applied, allowing you to really dial in your water application rates.
We also installed the Hunter Hydrowise Irrigation Controller which is the brains of the sprinkler system. It starts and stops irrigation zones that can be dialed in, in the app. The Hunter Hydrowise controllers are super easy to program. Our irrigation controller is also a smart controller and has features like the Solar Sync ET sensor, which adjusts your watering schedule automatically based on the weather which will save us money long term.
The pop up sprayers we used are the PSR 40 and they consist of a nozzle and body and apply water to a given area between 2 and 30 feet. The Pro-Spray PRS40 pairs the Pro-Spray body with a 40 PSI pressure regulator, and is designed to be paired with the highly efficient MP Rotator nozzles, which we used during the installation.
The nozzles we used are the MP rotators. The MP Rotator applies multiple rotating streams of water at super low rates, which uses less water and ensures the landscape receives only the amount of water it needs to be healthy. MP Rotators are proven to decrease water use by 30% over traditional spray nozzles. The MP Rotator saves water and fits on most spray bodies.
Before getting my system installed I contemplated doing it as a DIY project but after seeing all the work that goes into it, there no way I could have done it myself. In my opinion, its best to hire a professional to design, plan, install, and maintain your system. They will take care of all the tedious work for you like permitting and planning out the system along with all the labor that goes into it.

Can you do a video on how to get rid of moles, voles, mice in your lawn?
not even close check out ireigreen, thats the rolls royce of irrigation systems lol
Kevin needs his own TH-cam channel.....he’s a natural
Totally!
Billy, thank you for your feedback & kind words, with Georges's guidance I'd like to do that.
He has a yt account but he doesn’t upload on it
@@kevinbattistoni5960 I thought this was your TH-cam channel when I stumbled across this video - make it happen!
@@kevinbattistoni5960 yeah man, you're legit!
That Kevin dude is 110 % intense. He knows is business.
haha hes a beast
Thank you, Paul.
Man, you look like an action movie star.
@@der_pinguin44 maybe a stunt double.. 🙏🏻
@@der_pinguin44 thank you for your kind words
He’s got Johnny Sins doing his irrigation system install. This guy knows how to lay the pipe. 🤣
Word 🎤💧
LMAOOOOO
Kevin’s super knowledgeable and his shoe game is also top notch.
Thank you for your kind words.
Agreed. I noticed his Jordan’s first thing.
@@kevinbattistoni5404 Thanks Kevin, you made this video 100% more enjoyable, appreciate all your knowledge and professionalism!
@@sandyovals thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it!!
@@kevinbattistoni5404 your knowledge was great like mine, the dual head install makes me cringe especially because of constant cross-coverage but you did good explaining
Kevin is such a G! Especially the way he was standing there at the beginning you just knew he was beyond an expert on everything irrigation!
😂💯
Thank you for your kind words I really appreciate it. My family's been installing irrigation for 96 years it's passion for me
Kevin is made for camera! He needs a lawn irrigation channel!
Haha yes he is!
And I totally agree 💯 been tellin him to start one
Thank you for your kind words, As I greatly appreciate the encouragement. This is something I plan on exploring in the future. I couldn't ask for a better friend or mentor in the area than George!
@@kevinbattistoni5404 when you need content hit me up, I'm not far from George and didn't know I needed this until now.
@@kevinbattistoni5404 I just made the exact same comment lol. Knowledgeable, concise, have a passion for what you do, and a touch of humor. Definitely start up your own channel. Loved your video!
@@coryCuc thank you 🙏🏻
this guy could talk a dog off a meat truck, shit i have a irrigation system and want another one from this guy after the video. this should get alot of views...great work
Thank you for your kind word, greatly appreciate your positive feedback!
lol a dog off a meat truck thats hilarious!
I DIY'd mine 2 years ago with a trencher and yes it was a ton of work, 80% of the job was actually filling the trench back in. Managed to do it all in 4 days and I get far less overspray on my driveway, sidewalks and patio than my neighbors' professionally installed systems thanks to my MP Rotators.
You’re hired, when can you do mine 🤣
I also did mine myself when I was 65 in Florida in August. Sweating like a whore in church. Also dug my own irrigation well. I now have the best lawn in the sub division. Home owners association sent me letters about how great my lawn looks. So you young guys save your money and do it yourself, just not in the hot weather.
I did a diy one back in September with just a shovel in 2 days, I’m only 13 and I did really well, I have a video of the system
I am I licensed irrigator in the state of Texas, these mp rotator are really awsome. They definitely save water and are extremely durable. I've never had one fail on me
Thats great to hear!
Thank you for your feedback, TExas does it properly with their licensing
We have had so many failures in our northern climate we refrain from using MP rotors.
Wow! That video was top notch. I felt like I was watching HGTV. Congratulations on the new irrigation, George!
haha thanks bro! its about time i got one haha
I installed this exact same system myself as a DIY on a 10k sq ft yard last fall. It was definitely a lot of work and took a lot of planning. I installed almost 80 heads, and had to tunnel under sidewalk 5 times since i have a corner lot, and need to get into the easement. Heck I was able water my entire easement with ~20 side stripe heads on a single zone, yea i have a large corner lot! It so awesome, and I don't think you can do that with traditional short range spray nozzle, but I could be wrong.
I learned to use a trencher, and it took more time backfilling the trenches. I saved myself almost 5K!! It is definitely a lot of work, and it took about 5 full days to install 8 zones, and rough in 2 additional zones for landscape irrigation.
After it is all said and done, MP Rotators and their Hydrowise are the way to go. I can tell a big difference between my lawn and my neighbors who have traditional spray nozzles. I only water my lawn 5 times a week, and it every sq ft of the lawn get no more than 1" of watering a week. Plus the controller can monitor how much rain I received at my house to alter the water schedule.
I am thinking of creating a video tutorial or my process. It includes the planning, such as how to zone using Hunters provided documents, and installation process using poly tubing since I documented every step I did for future reference. I even had professional irrigation ppl see it, and they were impressed. Lol, or just making me feel good and not telling the truth. Haha.
If anyone is interested, let me know I can create it!
Wow props to you my friend, i knw that was quite the project!
And you should make a video! There is a big audience for it.
I would like to see this!
Definitely produce that video
Couldn’t get better than a professional in ground irrigation system especially Hunter! Very clean and precise installation. Kevin is very knowledgeable and knows his stuff. Great video George!
Much appreciated!
@ 3:45, Dude opened that valve box like a BOSS 😎 lmao!
Haha for real
This is pretty much my exact setup: mprotators with the hydrawise controller (my installers thought I was nuts when I asked for them since you need a lot more heads for full coverage). Only thing I wish my installer did was give me 6” popups in certain areas since I mow tall at 4” most of the year. In certain sloped areas, the head barely gets out over the grass especially when it’s overgrown. Something to consider if you have sloped areas or mow tall!
nice! are you going to eventually get the 6in pop ups?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare in certain areas I may make them swap them out but I finally got the lawn back to what it was prior to install so I’d hate to tear up some of turf again. Even though they used the same machine as your installation, it still left divots that I had to level out alone with reseeding certain areas. Minimal damage compared to trenching but definitely still needed work after they left…
You're off to the races now!! That lawn will be POPPIN all summer!!
straight up bro!
Tony
Vince
Dominic
This east coast video didn't disappoint.
Thank you sir haha. It was great working with George and glad he loves his new system 👍🏼
@@vinnymase44 Definitely a clean install.
you mentioned the risers come in various lengths. when, under what conditions would you use a taller riser. sometimes as my grass grows the riser spray hits the grass when spraying??!! Larry
What height do you mow at?
Awesome video George! 🙌🏼 Thank you for giving Rainmakers the opportunity to install your new irrigation system.
Thanks Vince! you guys did an AWESOME job!
Appreciate you brotha
I’m really happy you finally got hooked up!
Being honest, your guy was fantastic. He truly knows about pressure, volume and expectations. My compliments to his explanations he provided.
Everyone interested in irrigation should have an installer this knowledgeable. If they can’t discuss overlap, distances, volume and psi, send them off your property!!!!
I actually pulled out the existing irrigation system that came with the house I purchased. There are SO many scam artists installing these things they have no clue nor care about what they’re doing. With that said, on my second go around, I have a perfect irrigation setup similar to yours and I sleep well night having a system that delivers.
I love your content and I’m glad you can enjoy some great irrigation!!!!!
Thanks mike! Appreciate the kind words 😃
My boy Kev with the kicks and stunners, he’s seems like a cool non criminal Avanatti
Thank you for your kind words. Stay tuned for a new channel coming your way soon.
The heat on the feet? Dude brought out the good stuff for TH-cam.
😂
The Tiffany lows! Installing irrigation in the Tiffany lows 💎 🙌🏽
kevin stays fresh haha
Having in ground irrigation is a game changer. Well done George 👊🏼
it really is! we have been having a dry spring and it has already came in handy!
Oh yeah! Felt like a grown-up when I finally got my irrigation system dialed in and no longer had to drag hoses around.
My city has MPs all over it, parks, shopping centers , housing developments.
i bet you live in a beautiful city!
Very nice. I saw your video last year with Kevin talking about the MP rotators and I've been wanting to make the transition. I have a mixture of various Rain Bird and Nelson heads now, but I really want to replace them all with the MP and the pressure regulated body. I'm thinking I'll just do one zone at a time, because I have 35-40 heads over 8 zones, so it would be a lot of work to do all at once!
Congrats on the new setup, I'm sure you'll love it!
Thanks Ben!
That would be quite the project! You got this 👍
oooooh watching that plow mess up your turf... is the same feeling as getting kicked in the balls 😂😂😂 Congrats on the new system my dude! 😊🙌🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
sucks they have to use such aggressive equipment, Ryan Knorr had his done a few years ago and the tire damage was brutal. Seems they could look to improve upon that now the lawn will need to be re-leveled and set back for a bit.
@@JEK I mean i'm sure these guys have a ton of these to do and they have found the perfect equipment to do it fast and effective. I wouldn't want to be there all day digging it up with a shovel you know 😂😂😂🤙🏾
Thats ok john more content for the channel haha
btw i cant even see the scars in the front yard anymore, backyard still some but it should be good soon
remember watching your installation is like getting operated on without being knocked out, we are performing surgery on your yard and once it's over your yard needs two weeks of physical therapy (heavy daily water cycles) and it will make a full recovery and no more hose wrestling!
@@kevinbattistoni5960 😂😂😂
if i could afford it, Kevin would be my guy for sure. Love his knowledge that backs up his sales techniques. Obviously knows all the little details that a DIYer like myself would overlook. Something big like this, i would def feel better having a guy like that do it for me
Yeah he is a real pro. Also seems like he could probably kill you in 30 different ways
Glad you found value in the content, thank you for the feedback!
Kevin always looks like he’s ready to square up.
Try remembering your lines while recording with him all while he doesn’t mess up once 😂
Jp he’s a gentle butterfly
I've always been a bit intense but never looking for a fight. I the smallest of three boys in my family I got plenty of it frowning up.
Excellent video! I just had my irrigation system installed last year and I love it! They installed mostly rain bird RVAN nozzles but after a year most of them stopped rotating so I switched out all my nozzles to the mp rotators and it’s been perfect since then!
That is awesome!
love those hunter nozzles!
Damn ours was put in in the late 90's tech for irrigation has gotten way better since then obviously. Kinda wish I could redo my whole yard and get that installed 😂
its nice!
Amazing job fellas, im a Irrigation Technician myself and the install looks phenomenal. The only thing I'm not really a fan of is the Poly-Pipe for the main an zone lines. In my experience I've seen that tree roots and surrounding rocks can damage the Poly easier than PVC. There's definitely pros and cons to both, but the crew definitely seems top-notch, professional, and educated! Awesome install!
we appreciate it, thank you! 👍🏽
I like how those updated heads water, can they be put on an exiting hunter traditional head? Thanks
Word👊 Thread off the list of thread on the new.
So many cool irrigation heads out now. I have a combo of rotators and traditional heads, mistake I made was not doing a dedicated park strip zone but overall works great. Utility company ran some electric this spring and cut one of my laterals so J have a zine out but plan to repair this week. Be well!
Pretty awesome set up man. That vibratory plow is pretty nice so they didn't have to tear the hell out of your lawn. Great video man!
Thanks bro 😎
I’m not sure how I’d feel if they had to bust out the trencher haha
@@PrincessCutLawnCare I would have had some serious anxiety about them trenching up my yard. That is one reason why I have always been hesitant to get an in-ground system lol
@@TheLawnLover this is why I haven’t done it yet. Every one I’ve called for a quote all use trenchers only. 🤦♂️
@@nointro same here, I have put too much work into the lawn to have it torn to hell. I will keep at it with my manual sprinklers
@@TheLawnLover I used the link in the description to get connect with people in my area. Hopefully someone good will contact me!
Uh oh - irrigation is a game changer man! Glad you finally got one installed!
Thanks Bro! man im too excited!
Wow!
Love how George genuinely promotes others!
With the presentation skills that Kevin exhibits - he most be able to afford a few Rolls Royce! He killed it!
Yeah id NEVER try to do a self install on an irrigation system LOL. Glad ours was installed when we bought our house. Its amazing to have
That is awesome!
When Pitbull installs your irrigation system....LOL
mr 305
They call me 24/7 Kevin
Very nice! I'm sure you are excited George! Enjoy that system!
Installed my own system years ago, it's a nice weekend project if you have nice weather..
Thanks steven!
Johnny Sins is now in the irrigation industry! Continuing to lay pipe!
Thank you for your kind words, will just continue to work hard till we no longer need to introduce yourself 🎤💧
I just received my kit. I love it. Thanks, George.
If you have any questions let us know?
Thanks for the video. I have the Hunter PRS bodies and MP rotators, only 18 months since install and two MP rotators do not turn automatically anymore and need a manual turn to get them going. The supplier replaced both for free, but it took a lot of discussion back and forth before they would accept the return. Citing reasons like, my pressure is low (no), clean the units they must be dirty (that was my first step), you have hard water (well who doesn't), these are designed to work flawlessly (no).
They work great and I love them, but be aware, you will have issues with the MP rotators at some point and they will need replacement. Easy and cheap to do, but not without fault. The coverage they provide is excellent.
Welcome to the in-ground club! Now you just need a well!
Thanks man! im gonna have to go silver cymbal style and beat a pole into the ground until i hit water haha
This Kevin dude with his teal Jordan's, one piece jumpsuit , violet shades and body stances seems like a character out of some script lol but knows his trade.
No doubt, I am that. authentic - what you see is what you get with the cameras on or off. thank you for engaging with the content.
Just DIY'd our 8000 sqft property! I used a combination of Rain Bird rotors, Rain Bird Maxi-Paws, and Rain Bird rotary nozzles in the garden!
wow congrats!
The install on that is money. I did my own install before I laid my sod but this is clean. You'll love in the inground system. Sick video, bro!
Thanks dude! already lovin it! so convenient
Sweet video! I’ve had my Hunter system for 3 years now. Beats dragging those water hoses around.
Thanks for sharing tony!
Good to see you boss!
Dude sick video. Your boy is slick on camera. I need him to come out here and put in one of those systems in. Lawn looking awesome too. Great work.
Appreciate it dude!
that kev is a smooth operator
hot me up, I travel.
The hunter guy is pretty proud of himself.
im proud of him
I enjoy what I do for a living and blessed to get to work with George, really having fun with the entire process. I was born into the industry (literally) and the in's and outs of irrigation is not well know so I get excited to share information. I'm passionate & enthusiastic and life is too short not to live it with a little flare.
@kevin battistoni , your presentational skills are inspiring, not just for any product specialist, but for anyone who enjoys life more when they just let loose a little bit! Hope you are progressing well with your own channel, you deserve the exposure.
Just got the same system. I'm SOOOO glad I hired someone to do it - took them 4 hours and it's perfect head-to-head coverage.
How much did it cost, if I may ask?
Very nice, I'm still rocking the classic oscillating fan sprinkler 😎. Looks good, may need some leveling after it settles.
Thanks bro!
actually the level is not bad at all in the front yard, i can hardly tell it happened
backyard is gonna need some time to recover
Kevin reminds me of a drill instructor. Right?? Anyone else?? This man has spent time on the island or SD.
I'm wired pretty tight and my father and grand father all served but I have not.
@@kevinbattistoni5404 Love it man! Keep up the grind!
Nice video George, I couldn't live without my inground irrigation system.
Link it to a weather monitoring controller and you've got a system that not only keeps your lawn watered correctly but saves you money too..
Thanks man! If you don’t mind me asking.. how’s the water bill there in MI?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare I'll have to check, I'll message you later when I look it up..I would like to have a separate meter for the irrigation so I don't have to pay for sewage but my township want an exorbitant price to do it..
Same, I'm in Florida and we have saint Augustine grass. Irrigation with reclaim water keeps my grass looking good.
Depends on how accurate the hardware and software is, a lot of the stuff out is inaccurate.
Great video. Kevin rocking those Tiffany’s SB’s… NICE!!!
Patrick Bateman knows his stuff!
Thank you, sir.
Welcome back Geo, thought you were M.I.A.***********another great vid!
Been back bro, where you been???
Kevin needs his own show lol
Haha for real!
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. With George's guidance I will take steps towards making it happen soon.
@@kevinbattistoni5404 You're very welcome! You can tell you really enjoy doing what you do and aren't just there to collect the client's money. I was having an issue with a few of my irrigation heads and you actually answered how to fix them lol, so thanks! If/when you do start a channel, I'll be the first subscriber. Again, thanks for the info!
@@coryCuc 🙏🏻
I have 11 of the hunter PGP adjustable ones and 12 of the mp rotator red. They're so fun to watch.
soooo relaxing sitting back and watching them
I totally need one myself. It was 90 degrees here yesterday and I had to move my lawn sprinkler 4 times. Please help!!
Click the link below the video to be directed to our web page and you can request a pro in your area to give you a quote.
I installed a 65-head 9-zone system. I'm a designer and loved the challenge. I'm not a licensed plumber and I stopped a lot of people from separating me from my hard-earned $$$$. I'm an excellent hand digger and used a trencher too. I created all the Hunter head spray patterns in Sketchup so I can design any space.
It varies from state to state but in Colorado homeowners are allowed to do their own plumbing, you just need to pull a permit first.
My OTO just paid for itself again by watching this video
How you like the oto?
Been hearing a lot about it. Looks like a really cool piece of tech!
@@PrincessCutLawnCare yes i like it. it connects to my wifi, and monitors the weather. so it doesnt water if its going to rain. They have a bunch of features. I mounted 2 of them to my house. ( about $900, 450 each) prices might have come down. If i sell my house i can take them with me, and i didnt have to do any excavation, and my neighbors think there cool.
Man!!!!!.... Kevin's' the BOSS. I thought he was just being funny at first, but then I realized that he IS funny, and also KNOWS HIS SHIT. Awesome video man, thanks.
Thanks! he's the joe rogan of irrigation.
Funny and knows his stuff 💯
Thank you for your kind words! I'm a bit of a charter or so I'm told. I was born into the industry four generations deep going back to 1928. I love it and working with George has been great, learning a lot from him!
@@kevinbattistoni5960 That's incredible dude!! The substance of that heritage is evident in your work. All the best!!
P.S. I cringe when I think about the "sprinkler system" I just put in and , well, what you do. I'm certain your comments on it would have everyone on the floor laughing. Adios!
@@darshanaalles6780 all good. I prefer to measure twice and cut once but live and learn, right?
I retrofitted my backyard with the 40s and rotators last year. Going to swap the 40s with the 30s since I had a little more pressure drop than anticipated. Love the sprinklers though.
I went with the orbit bhyve for controller
how do you like the orbit?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare so far so good. This will be my first summer with it, so I'm going to pay extra attention to the smart watering feature.
Kevin with the fresh Nike's
What up punk! Greetings from mayc 👋
Kevin likes to stay fresh 🔥
AJ1 Low "Tropical Twist" to be specific.. budget Tiffany's.
Thank you, Manny.
Great video. I paid 13K to have our sprinkler system installed a few years ago and I told the guy that all I care about was to have good coverage. Needless to say I got the complete opposite. I’ve got zones with 12 to 14 heads on them which is WAAY to many. As a lawn care nut, it’s one of the biggest stresses in my life.
WTF! That’s ridiculous. Sorry to hear about that. The most heads I’ll install on a zone is 7 and I’ve hardly ever do that. 13k for a system is a lot as well.
If you don't already have them, swap out to mp rotators. Their low flow can handle that many heads on a zone provided you have 1" lines and decent pressure.
1 zone can go up to 100 IF you have strong water flow called GPM ( gallons per minute). For example: if you have 20 GPM, then 1 sprinkler used 1 gpm. You can use up to 20 sprinkler.
Most of RVan is the kind of rotary nozzle have use 1 or less. So basically check your water pressure, use rotary nozzle like the video you will have good system.
The shoes and the socks though....👍🤙
thank you
Congrats on the new irrigation system. It truly looks high tech and super clean install.
Thanks cola! seen you commenting on a bunch of videos, really appreciate the support!
Ok Kevin needs his own tv show!
yes he does!
Thank you for you words of encouragement, they are greatly appreciated.
Congrats on your new baby!!!
Thank you so much 😀
bro reminded me of Vin Diesel and Jason Kidd at the same time
I'll take it, I like them both
@@kevinbattistoni5960 mavs fan?
I did DIY using a regular hose, flexible pipe to connect sprinkler heads and MP rotators then each “zone” hooked up on a Orbit B-Hyve timer. Since I’m using normal pressure coming out of the house, I could only connect 3-4 heads per “zone”. I dug by hand using a shovel (huge pain) but at least it is “in ground” now.
@@Anrodj3 i forgot my measurement of gpm but water pressure is 50 psi
Okay, so reflecting on it, would you hire or DIY the one on your next home?
@@kevinbattistoni5960 depends.
I did professional install in my new build that’s currently building. this is solely because the real estate market in that area prefers it. (Almost every house has it.)
If the local market didn’t care for it (ie. there is little to no ROI in home value for installing professional in-ground sprinklers), I would still do DIY.
Happy for you to get a new system!! I on the other hand will still be pulling hoses all over the yard. I have 6500 sq ft just in the front yard. I've looked into it but stopped when the price was getting way to high for me and that was doing the work myself. Now after seeing your video I may just forget it. LOL I'm still happy that they hook you up brother!!
Oooh im jelly!! Thats so awesome.. so happy for you! I'll look into them when I EVENTUALLY get mine lol. I have a random question for ya dealing with water and mowing..
I thought I was going thru some drought stress because my lawn was looking hazy and lost its rich green in some areas throughout. I cut my grass like 4 days ago at 3.5 in and I have alot of patches that look stressed now. I thought it was maybe due to the no rain but I got up close and they are all dead seed heads. Those are roughly at 3 or 3.5 inches still while the other grass is 4 to 5 in so my blade was right at or above those seed heads. Do I have to wait them out and keep my mower height tall if they are dead like that and not actively growing or can I drop my mower height to get rid of those bad areas that are making my lawn look like crap? I just dont want to be counter productive if it is drought stress. Hope this makes sense. I was staying at a taller height since we don't have rain until next week but all the hazy looking spots are driving me nuts and im not sure what to do.
Interesting video.... My only question is what about SERVICE AFTER THE SALE, in case there are issues or repair service required in the future?
good question i will find out this winter when they winterize it
1 year unconditional warranty parts and labor is pretty standard practice but in seasonal markets you will see your contractor twice. Fall winterization and spring activation and Backflow test.
Question.. with the mp rotors, do you need to add more time when I use my irrigation. I have those in the back and the regular sprayers in the front of house. I usually have a set time for the front and back. Also am I able to switch out the fronts for the MP rotary
Correct, the MP application rate is .40 inches per hour and spray heads are 1.5-2 inches per hour.
Start buy doubling the run time and adjust from there.
Yank those spray nozzles in from and swap out to MP's your turf and you wallet will tank you🎤💧
@@kevinbattistoni5404 thank you for the info. I really like the MP rotary.
@@christopherortiz8713 my pleasure, we're glad you found value in the information shared.
Great video, that's a great blessing. Thanks
Thanks Eric!
Forever thankful 🙏
Great video as always George! I’d consider an in ground irrigation system but some how I don’t think my rain water collection system for watering my lawn can justify it 😂 but I did enjoy the video! 👍🏻
Thank man, did you know its illegal here to collect rainwater? LOL
@@PrincessCutLawnCare actually lol…at the same time that’s a small trade off considering the amount of products you guys have at your disposal 😂
@@BackwoodsLawnCare haha touche
hey George quick question. I have a new near completion house and they are putting sod down. I wanna have a nice green lawn one day. Should i start with any fertilizers or liquids or wait till the root system develops? I'm also in the south if this plays a factor. Thanks
I also really enjoy your content and how in depth you go into everything keep it up..
Hi Paul, appreciate that! Congrats on the new home!
did you happen to do a soil test? if not no worries, i would buy some starter fertilizer like scotts or YM and spoon feed it weekly spliting up the bag rate weekly and be sure to water water water
@@PrincessCutLawnCareThanks for the reply. Guess ill start with the soil test
This guy definitely knows about lawn irrigation!
Thank you for your feedback!
That’s awesome! Congrats!!
Thanks bro!
This is as good as a This old house video! Very professional! Excellent editing. Great job!!
Thank you so much mark!
I’ve dedicated the last year and half to learning the art of making videos so your comment means a a lot 😃
Congratulations on a great system. Nice shoes Kevin.
Thanks randy!
Thank you!
I love, love, love my Hunter rotators! Excellent tuna can testing for even watering! Slow & steady to minimize runoff, and streaming water droplets that minimize mist & evaporation. Water conservation.
that is the best timer on the market, congratulations on getting an awesome irrigation system. I love using my timer to water when the yard needs it. I personally have a well so all I have to pay for is the electric which is very nice.
I'll start tagging you on some of my yard pics. I wish I could grow Kentucky blue grass.
Is it me or does Kevin look like a mafia hit man?
Lol
I know a guy.
He’s so extra about a sprinkler 😂😂
yes he is lmao
That guy was the best part of the video
Thank you, sir! I aim to entertain & educate and in that order.
Excellent presentation by the installer
Thanks kirk! Kevin has quite the gift of gab
Video time stamp is big brain stuff. I love it.
haha we dont play around
"MP ROTAROR HEADS" are KING, just as long as they are adjusted correctly with Spread and Range!
Plus they have replaceable filters to keep Particulates from "choking" the head emitters.
Such a great video I know I'm getting this system now I just had someone bid my system install and it's 5,500 for the front and back to be done
Thanks vin!
I need this in my area. I’ve had 4 companies come give quotes and all use trenchers only and basically don’t care about damage to the lawn.
oh no! we want to avoid those trenchers
@@PrincessCutLawnCare I used the link in your video description to get connect with potentially 2 new companies I’ve not tried so thank you for that! Hopefully one of them can do it like they did in your video!
If everyone giving you an estimate is using a trencher it's likely because your ground conditions in your area are too rough for a polar to actually work. Hard ground means trencher loam soil little bit of clay you can get away with a puller
@@kevinbattistoni5404 was told today that usually no one recommends a puller because of the shallow pipe it lays that could be hit by a core aerator.
Can I get Kevin to come over to NJ? Great job guys!!!
Hell yeah, I can travel, hmu
All your vids are so cool…
Thanks Tom, always appreciate ya stoppin by 🙂
Nice work my man! I see green grass all summer long in your future lol! Kevin is a natural on TH-cam wow!
Thank you, sir!
@@kevinbattistoni5404 ROCK ON my friend!
You've got my system! Love how I can run multi modes and cancel system runs! AA+++
Great to hear!
Maaaaan, you're making me jealous! Would be so awesome! How do the pipes do during winter? That's the only part holding me back, worried I have to change pipes every winter.
Nothing to worry, we winterize all the underground components in the fall to ensure no freeze damage to any heads, lines & valves.
Amazing video thank you!
Glad you liked it!
