Can you install popup sprinklers on 13mm irrigation pipe?

Hi All,

We have a 13mm irrigation pipe run which shrub sprinklers installed. We have 2 year old labradoodles that have pulled these away and chewed some piping. I am wondering if I can install low pressure popups (using the same 13mm piping) to hide these away when not in use? Recommend a link if these are available. Or do I need to install 19mm?

Hello @MikeLowry

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about adding sprinklers to your existing system.

There are low-pressure pop-up sprinklers such as the Toro 570Z 2" Pop Up Sprinkler VAN and the K-Rain 50mm Adjustable PRO-S™ Pop Up Sprinkler. Just to be on the safe side I suggest doing a water pressure test on your garden tap. I recommend having a look at this discussion - Garden irrigation system by @GardenerJohn. In regards to the pipe size, the 13mm there should be no issue as long as there is enough pressure to operate the sprinklers.
