MP Rotator sprinklers are popular, effective and versatile
The MP Rotator is our most popular and widely used product, when working in homes around Perth here at Luke’s Landscaping and Irrigation services. It is the most effective and versatile sprinkler nozzle that we use. Whether we are servicing or repairing reticulation systems, or looking for an effective way to water our new lawns and gardens that we regularly install, then the Waterwise MP Rotator is the first sprinkler nozzle that springs to mind. There are many reasons to use this sprinkler in your home reticulation system in the hot dry summer that Perth provides.
Retrofitting to existing systems
Reticulation systems that have low pressure can greatly benefit from having MP Rotators retrofitted onto them. The nozzle of the MP Rotator will screw straight into most pop ups, making this an easy job for anyone to do. Because the MP Rotators have a slower application rate, run at lower pressure and use less water you can run far more heads per station. What this means when using them to fix pressure problems is that simply changing the heads from normal sprays to MP Rotators can dramatically improve coverage and water pressure. This can also hugely improve your lawns and gardens because of the MP Rotator’s water efficient features.
It can in some instances be cheaper to install MP Rotators onto a low pressure system to resolve the problem than it is to dig it all up, add extra solenoids in and split the stations up….
By using the MP Rotator on new reticulation installations you can use less heads as they throw further, less fittings and materials and less labour. It also means a smaller controller and fewer solenoid valves. And if you can do that while installing a superior reticulation system then it would be crazy not to!

Main benefits of using MP Rotator sprinklers

The MP Rotator has a slow application rate; put in short, it spreads the water slowly over a longer period of time, which allows the water to soak into the ground evenly. Traditional sprinklers in comparison spread the water fairly quickly. Different sections of the ground will absorb water slower or quicker than other sections, even if it is the same area or for example, the same lawn.
By using a traditional spray the sections of the ground that absorb water quicker are getting more water than they should and the sections that absorb water slower are getting less. The water runs off the less absorbent sections and gets soaked up in the sections that don’t need more, which could leave you with a patchy or uneven lawn! The MP Rotator’s slow application will result in the whole area having a gradual soak and giving those dryer sections of soil time to absorb it all in.
Other benefits of the slow application rate include reduced run off, which is perfect for hills and slopes and also ideal for clay soils that take a long time to soak in water.
Even application rate from start to finish of sprinkler radius
The MP Rotator has a very even application rate from the start to the end of its radius. Most sprinklers will let out different amounts at the start of the radius to the end, producing uneven watering. Not so with the MP Rotator.These are just a few of the benefits that come from using the MP Rotator. You can watch the Video on this page which will run through the benefits in more detail.
We have found this sprinkler nozzle to be the most efficient sprinkler on the market. It is tough and reliable. This product is good; it works consistently and we have tested it time after time, year after year.The best way to sum up the MP Rotator would be that it is efficient in the way it distributes water, and when working with reticulation in Perth’s hot summers efficiency is number one! Water is our most valuable resource and should be treated accordingly.
