SPRINKLER TALK FORUM - You Got Questions, We've Got Answers

RidgeRun05,
I must make a correction here. First off they are both not PGP’s. They are 1 PGP and 1 I20. Yes, cheap in the long run. I saw those parts last week online when I was looking. There are other place/sites too. The kicker is they have parts for the cheaper PGP and not the I-20…go figure.

As far as what you stated, “….Hunter, it seems as though they both already told you that you are out of luck”. This part is incorrect as to what I posted above a few times. Hunter Inc (the manufacture) states they (Auth dealers) are to replace the heads to the installer (me) since they are under trade warranty on the heads and I am the original installer. That I have in print, several times.

It is a closed story on here since no one can supply the correct answers. I do thank everyone for there opinions, but I want facts.

But I am going to stop down (while on my way somewhere else to order some loam) yet again with printed emails from Hunter and let them deal with it. I am going to call hunter while there. Either they honor the trade warranty or not. It is as simple as yes or not. If not, show me where it states these guidelines via Hunter documentation.

It might be a very small issue and not worth the time for some, but give me closure since this will impact what heads I use, where I buy them or might sign up with other local dealers, warranty issues for the customer, price via “what I get” etc etc. It is not as simple as “just suck it up”….If they own dealers can’t figure this out from what hunter has outlined in print………...

Not starting a war, but this is flat out crazy.

Again wet boots, opinions are like _____ (fill in the black)

Again, post something this is of importance.

**Just some FYI here since I got an answer after stopping and ordering some top soil. I talked to the owner, since the clowns at the counter know zero, stated he can replace the heads, no big deal after I gave him the emails from Hunter in front of him. Go figure..

So you need to fight for a warranty issue....so sad.

Sure we toss it around for a “finalist for Stupid Thread of the Year” but what about few posters that are intergral to it! Even better. Maybe a ignoramus with the most posts in that very same thread.[:o)][]

The point was, if you did not get it, was that the dealers are playing a cat and mouse game. Again, some go the extra mile and some dealers can’t even spell dealer. Either follow the rules per Hunter or do not sell Hunter products. When Hunter themselves spell it out, even people with a GED can get it. Again, no wonder most local dealers do not make it. Time to wake up. If they have a Chap 11 sale, there closing sale is the normal price.

When online places are making money and cheap, go figure...when some dealers wholesales is very very low, go figure. That does not justify the huge markup nor the attitudes nor the games.

I would pay about 10% of my price on a PGP ($1 more) or 20% on a I-20 ($1.7 more). No more since my guy is pretty cheap, no attitude and works with you or anyone; or online places if I choose to. Anything more it is not worth the warranty here I personally think...aka a joke.

Example, if my guy went up to $20 per head and I select Sprinklerwarehouse at $9.95, the warranty is called a throw away head.

If you want to bash Toro go right ahead but post the facts and not opinions.

<h2>Please post knowledgeable and factual info not childish remarks. If I want people to ramble on and on without facts, I will go back to some Hunter Dealer or installers. </h2>
