Pop-up sprinkler irrigation in Kenya

A pop-up sprinkler isn’t just a collection of sprinklers; it’s a full irrigation solution. It includes:

• Pop-up sprinklers
• Pipes and fittings ( reducing sockets, elbow coupling, tee coupling)
• Pressure regulators
• Timers or controllers
• Filters and valves

Pop-up sprinkler irrigation system works through a combination of pipes, pumps (depending on the number of sprinklers), pressure tanks, and a timer. It can either be automatic or manual.

When the system is activated, water flows through the underground pipe into the housing of the sprinkler. As water fills the sprinkler housing, pressure is generated inside, causing the sprinkler to pop up above the ground level, exposing the nozzle openings that spray water in a circular pattern.

After the water cycle is complete, pressure inside the housing drops causing the sprinkler head to lower back into the housing, this prevents the sprinkler head from damage and also tripping.
