Pop-Up Bodies for Irrigation Systems
Pop-up bodies form the foundation of sprinkler irrigation systems, housing the internal mechanisms that control water flow and spray patterns.
This collection features Hunter HCV check valves, PRS-30 and PRS-40 pressure-regulated bodies, and standard Pro-Spray bodies suitable for various turf and landscape applications. The pressure-regulated models help maintain consistent water pressure across irrigation zones, whilst check valves prevent water drainage and maintain system pressure when sprinklers are not operating.
These components are designed to work with Hunter sprinkler heads and nozzles, providing reliable performance for both residential and commercial irrigation installations.
