Contractor Preferred Irrigation Supplies

If you are installing or repairing reticulation one of the most important decisions you can make is what products you install in the ground. If you are not in the ‘game’ and installing reticulation and irrigation, then it can be hard to know what’s good and what is not good!

So, we thought we would provide a list straight from the contractor’s mouth of our favourite long-term products and why we like them. These are just a few products that we like and there are many more.

Although we are a business that focuses on overhauling and renovating poorly performing reticulation systems we can certainly supply and install these products if we are doing a job for you.

Note, we do not do ‘Supply Only’.

Hunter Pro-Spray pop-ups

One of the toughest sprinkler bodies out there with an extremely strong retractable spring this is one pop-ups sprinkler you do not want to sneeze at.

Available in a range of sizes we prefer the 100mm or 4 inch. Most people use 50mm or 80mm pop-ups. The reason we like a larger size is so we can sink them down a little lower in the ground making it less likely you will damage the sprinkler with a lawn mower, car or even your foot!

CO-MOLDED WIPER SEAL

CO MOLDED WIPER SEAL

The industry’s most rugged wiper seal is co-molded from two types of chemical and chlorine-resistant materials. This pressure activated, multi-function wiper seal reduces flow-by, operates at low pressures, and allows more sprinkler heads to be installed on the same zone. Its innovative design prevents debris from entering the seal when the riser is retracted, reducing riser stick-ups.

INDUSTRYʼS STRONGEST SPRAY BODY

Pro Spray

The Pro-Spray line incorporates a heavy-duty ribbed body and durable cap engineered to withstand the harshest environments, including the rigors of foot traffic and the abuses of heavy machinery. In addition, the buttress thread design provides superior strength in cap-to-body gripping capacity helping the head to withstand high inlet surge pressures.

OPTIONAL CHECK VALVE

OPTIONAL CHECK VALVE

Optional check valves eliminates drainage at heads installed on slopes, protecting landscapes from damage and erosion while reducing water waste. Choose from the convenience of factory-installed check valves or the flexibility of field installation.

HEAVY-DUTY SPRING

HEAVY DUTY SPRING

The strongest retraction spring for positive retraction under any condition.

INNOVATIVE SEAL DESIGN

Pedestrian traffic, landscaping equipment, temperature changes, and cycling pressures can often cause body caps to loosen. Most spray bodies utilize an O-Ring, which breaks the seal immediately after loosening. The Pro-Spray can withstand more than one full 360º turn and remain sealed at any pressure.

Hunter MP Rotator Nozzle

Hunter’s Legendary MP Rotator nozzle is our all-time favourite. In our humble opinion this is the best nozzle for residential sprinklers you can get. This comes from many years of experience in using them. Mp Rotators spread the water very evenly, operate under lower flow and pressure and their unique throwing pattern cuts through the wind. Perfect for those windy places! The water is applied slower than standard nozzles allowing all areas the chance to soak the water in. Standard nozzles apply the water at a faster rate which increases runoff. Mp Rotators are a tough durable sprinkler nozzle. Like all things common sense still needs to prevail if you want a nice garden and you need to ensure adequate coverage, proper maintenance of your lawns and gardens and the right amount of sunlight and environmental conditions amongst other things.

Retic Renovation Services

The revolutionary MP Rotator features a unique, multi-trajectory rotating stream delivery system that achieves water-conserving results. Rather than simply “spray” water onto landscapes, MP Rotators deliver multiple streams of water at a steady rate. This slower application rate allows water to gently soak into the soil and achieves an even distribution throughout the area being irrigated. This increased efficiency results in 30% less water use when compared to traditional sprays and significantly reduces wasteful runoff. The MP Rotator can be installed onto any conventional spray head body or shrub adapter, transforming them into high uniformity, low precipitation rate sprinklers with matched precipitation at any arc and any radius.

The MP Rotators are a great choice for new systems, as they provide immense range flexibility (from 2.5 m to 10.7 m radius), decrease material costs, and provide better system efficiency. MPs are also perfect for revitalizing older systems—a retrofit can solve both low pressure and poor coverage problems.

  • Lowest precipitation rate in the industry of approximately 10 mm/hr
  • Matched precipitation for simplified irrigation design and flexibility
  • Double-pop feature protects the nozzle from external debris
  • High distribution uniformity for a healthy landscape with maximum water efficiency
  • Additional Features:
    • Wind-resistant, multi-stream technology prevents misting
    • Adjustable arc only when running for vandal resistance
    • Removable filter screen prevents nozzle from clogging
    • Colour-coded for easy identification
  • Radius reduction up to approximately 25% on all models
  • Recommended operating pressure: 2.8 bar; 280 kPa
  • Minimum radius setting achieved at 2.1 bar; 210 kPa
  • Warranty period: 3 years
  • Pair with Pro-Spray™ PRS40 pop-up for pressure regulation to 2.8 bar; 280 kPa for nominal radius settings
  • Pair with Pro-Spray PRS30 pop-up for pressure regulation to 2.1 bar; 210 kPa for minimum radius settings

Rainbirds MPR Series Fixed Pattern Spray Nozzles

As far as standard spray head goes this is our long-term favourite. If you are looking for a quality spray head, you will not go wrong with these. Just make sure you set out your perth reticulation correctly with the right spacing and station size. Like anything the equipment still needs to be used correctly.

Subsurface Driplines

Subsurface dripline can be one of the most effective ways to irrigate your garden. The Dripline sits between the soil and the mulch greatly minimising evaporation and delivering water right to the roots.


There are several components needed to make sure these types of systems work well so make sure you get someone who really knows what they are doing. We mainly use Netafim’s range of dripline.

Pressure Relief Valves

If you have a bore we would highly recommend you consider a pressure relief valve. In the case of an irrigation solenoid valve failing to open the bore can continue to try to pump water through the system causing the pump the ‘dead head’ this can burn out the bore and melt fittings and pipes causing all sorts of issues. A pressure relief valve will release the pressure above the pre-set level. Generally, we would just plumb this back into the main supply line.

We use Bermad typically for pressure relief valves.

The Bermad Quick Pressure Relief Valve is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that relieves excessive line pressure when it rises above the preset maximum.

This valve responds to rises in system pressure immediately, accurately, and with high repeatability, by opening fully

Wire Connectors

We recommend and use 3M Scotchlok wire connectors. These are easy to use and far better than the old twist and tape technique used by many irrigators. Using a proper waterproof Gel Connector like these greatly reduces the chance of corrosion on the wiring.

Articulated risers

You have joints, right? Sprinklers need joints as well. Using an articulated riser to connect a pop-up sprinkler to the PVC pipe work is a must have in our opinion. These greatly reduce the amount of damage a car can do and protect the pop-ups, pipe work and connectors. They just move slightly when driven on.

We cannot recommend Luke & Retic Renovation highly enough! We only wish we had discovered them sooner as Luke solved all our reticulation problems so efficiently – his knowledge and problem-solving skills are something to behold and the quality of his work is top-notch.

We also appreciated his excellent communication, from the initial booking, his detailed quote, his onsite work, and video updates to the final itemised invoice. Everything is clear & transparent. His outstanding work and garden care advice have set us up for success this summer and beyond. Luke is also a very nice person to deal with.

Luke is passionate about Reticulation and getting the right coverage for all of the garden. He is hard working and doesn’t mess about (much) although he loves running through his sprinklers and showing them off!! I would highly recommend Luke for all your reticulation needs: quotes are detailed and his communication is Brill. Thanks, Luke for the rotating sprinklers – they are the best!!

Luke completed a full retic setup on our property this year in preparation for a new lawn and garden bed install. Came up with a tailored solution for what we had in mind, walked us through the whole install and sent me progress videos so I could keep track of where everything was located while I was away at work. Absolutely quality advise, knowledge and information. System will last a lifetime. If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right.

Luke provided a complete garden service in a total garden makeover. We found his knowledge and ability in every aspect of the makeover to be thorough and professional. His expertise is by no means limited to reticulation, and his general advice was often appreciated

Great job! Very impressive, he’s like Albert
Einstein when it comes to Retic system. He is
also sharing his skills and knowledge and I’m
grateful for that.

Have had a wonderful outcome working with Luke. Great knowledge and nothing was too much to ask.

He worked so hard over 2 days. 3 months later our rear lawn is transformed.

His weekly follow up and genuine interest in the end result is also brilliant.

Before and after photos – better watering & overall top dress with some new turf blended in. All in 3 months

Found Luke on FB, the information provided on his page really is a true reflection of him. Once we made contact, he worked together with us on several proposals, and we agreed on the one that best fit our budget. We were pleasantly surprised when the final invoice was much less than the initial quote. Communication was always prompt and clear. He even put us in touch with other specialists to get the pump and controller replaced. He is a genuine down to earth guy with a wealth of knowledge which he happily shares. He works really hard and his passion shines through. He is a true professional. We had fun watching him make his slow motion video at the end of the day. Thank you so much Luke.

Joyce Fernandes

After putting up with issues created from a landscaper for too long I engaged Luke to address my suffering lawn and help with bringing it back to life.

Blake Constantine

After years of mending our reticulation as amateurs, without ever having the success of keeping all areas of our large garden looking fabulous, we finally called in the experts.   Retic Renovation exceeded our greatest hopes for lawn redemption.  The owner Luke was prompt in meeting with us and in an unbelievably short time, found the all important retic isolation valve that in years of digging had never been located.  Luke investigated all sections of the reticulation, repaired all faults, and tidied up all areas that had been worked on.  To finish, Luke provided us with helpful advice and recommendations for keeping our reticulation spot on.  We cannot recommend Retic Renovation more highly.

R and L Henley

If you’re looking for a precise job, with the experience to back it up, Luke is the person in Perth to contact. He’s passionate about making beautiful gardens in Perth for families to enjoy. We have relied on his experience and advice over the years to maintain an optimal full-garden solution. What we really appreciate is that he is upfront and honest, and provides all the details for his clients to make a well-informed decision. We will always return to Luke for our landscaping and retic needs.
