Newbie to sprinklers here. I am considering adding a 16'x16' vegetable garden to one of the back corners of my property. This means I'll have to re-route the sprinkler head in the affected corner. After seeing how easy (and expensive it was) to have some heads replaced by a pro last fall, I was thinking about saving money about doing it myself.
I would have to re-locate the existing head and would also like to add a head inside the garden as well (if this is recommended). It would of course have to utilize the same zone.
I need suggestions for all material and tools involved to make this happen. This includes heads, connectors, fittings, pipe, and any tools that are required to make all the pieces of the puzzle come together. Assume that I have nothing to start with. Also if anyone knows a DIY video on how to make connections that would be great.
All I know is that I have black flexible water lines that feed all my heads. The previous (and original) owner of the house did not have a sprinkler zone or water line layout map for me so its all guesswork. All of my zone valves are buried someplace as well.
Attached is a before/after map that shows my intentions. The colored sections represent the coverage areas for each head. All of the ones pictured are (or will be) on the same zone.
