Introduction
Many people have a sprinkler system and sprinkler heads tend to break occasionally. This guide will help people accomplish the task of replacing broken sprinkler heads themselves. Broken sprinkler heads can be diagnosed by the observance of poor water flow, incorrect water distribution or water shooting out like a geyser. By following the steps laid out in this guide, this project will reduce water usage and brown spots by assuring broken sprinkler heads are replaced properly.
