Precision Watering Starts Here: Hunter Sprays and Spray Bodies for Australian Landscapes
At hunterirrigation.au, we believe that effective irrigation is about more than just delivering water – it’s about precision. That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of Hunter Sprays and Spray Bodies, the foundation of countless efficient and beautiful landscapes across Australia. These industry-leading components work in harmony to provide reliable, consistent, and highly customisable watering for your lawns, garden beds, and challenging landscape areas.
Hunter spray heads are defined by two key components: the spray body (the pop-up mechanism that connects to your water line) and the spray nozzle (the interchangeable part that dictates the water pattern and distance). Together, they form a highly versatile sprinkler system, perfect for smaller, intricately shaped areas where consistent coverage is paramount.
Why Choose Hunter Sprays and Spray Bodies for Your Australian Property?
Hunter Industries has engineered their spray heads to perform flawlessly in Australia’s diverse environmental conditions, offering a blend of durability, efficiency, and flexibility that sets them apart:
- Robust & Durable Spray Bodies:
- Hunter Pro-Spray™ Series: Renowned as the industry’s strongest, the Pro-Spray body is built with heavy-duty construction to withstand the rigours of Australian conditions, including foot traffic and machinery. Its innovative co-moulded wiper seal prevents leaks and “stick-ups,” ensuring reliable pop-up and retraction year after year. Available in various pop-up heights (e.g., 5cm, 10cm, 15cm, 30cm), it’s ideal for a wide range of turf and shrub applications.
- Hunter PS Ultra Series: A compact and slim-line spray body, the PS Ultra is perfect for residential installations and tighter spaces. It features a reliable two-piece ratchet and durable cap, often coming with a pre-installed nozzle for quick installation. Both the Pro-Spray and PS Ultra accept all female-threaded Hunter nozzles, as well as industry-standard alternatives.
- Optional Check Valves: Crucial for sloped Australian terrain, many Hunter spray bodies offer optional or factory-installed check valves. These prevent “low-head drainage,” where water empties from the lowest sprinkler heads after the system shuts off, preventing puddling, erosion, and significant water waste.
- Pressure Regulated (PRS) Options: For ultimate water efficiency, choose Hunter Pro-Spray PRS30 (210 kPa) or PRS40 (280 kPa) bodies. These models maintain a consistent, optimal water pressure to the nozzle, eliminating misting and fogging caused by high pressure. This drastically improves distribution uniformity, saves water, and extends the life of your nozzles.
- Versatile & Efficient Spray Nozzles:
- Wide Range of Patterns: Hunter offers an extensive selection of spray nozzles to precisely match any landscape shape. This includes:
- Adjustable Arc Nozzles (Pro Adjustable): Easily set the spray pattern from 0° to 360°, offering maximum flexibility for irregular shapes and corners.
- Fixed Arc Nozzles (Pro Fixed): Provide highly accurate and consistent full-circle, half-circle, quarter-circle, and various strip patterns for reliable coverage in specific zones.
- Specialty Nozzles: Including bubblers for deep watering of trees and shrubs, or side strip nozzles for narrow garden beds and pathways.
- Matched Precipitation Rates: Many Hunter spray nozzles are designed with “matched precipitation rates.” This means that regardless of the arc or radius of the nozzle, all nozzles in a series apply water at roughly the same rate, ensuring uniform coverage when mixed on a single zone.
- Easy Adjustment: Hunter spray nozzles feature a simple adjustment screw to fine-tune the spray radius, allowing you to “dial down” the throw to prevent overspray onto paths, buildings, or other non-irrigated areas.
- Wide Range of Patterns: Hunter offers an extensive selection of spray nozzles to precisely match any landscape shape. This includes:
- Simplified Installation & Maintenance:
- Female Threaded Nozzle Compatibility: All Hunter spray bodies feature male-threaded risers, making them compatible with Hunter’s wide range of female-threaded spray nozzles, as well as many other brands. This offers excellent flexibility for new installations and retrofits.
- Durable Spring Retraction: Heavy-duty springs ensure consistent, positive retraction of the riser back into the body when the system is off, preventing accidental damage from mowers or foot traffic.
- Directional Flush Plug: Hunter spray bodies come with a flush plug that allows you to easily flush debris from the line during installation, ensuring clean operation from the start.
Popular Hunter Spray and Spray Body Series Available:
- Hunter Pro-Spray™: The gold standard for residential and light commercial spray applications. Known for its robust construction, superior seal, and optional PRS (Pressure Regulating Stem) and CV (Check Valve) features for maximum efficiency.
