PVC Sprinkler Line
PVC sprinkler line is a common choice among
professionals and is often used in large irrigation
projects.
Here are some reasons why you would should choose
PVC:

  • High Gallonage: If you need sprinklers far away
    from your pump, you don't have to run as many
    main lines because you can run bigger lines that
    have a higher gallonage
  • Widely Available: Most hardware stores and
    home improvement centers stock PVC lines and
    fittings
  • Lays Down Easily: PVC doesn't come in rolls, so
    when you lay it down it doesn't try to roll up
    again
Here are some reasons why you might want to avoid
using PVC line:

  • Cost: PVC is much more expensive than black
    plastic line
  • Durability: PVC grows brittle over time and can
    crack in the cold, or if you plan on driving
    something heavy like a tractor or a large truck
    through your lawn
  • Fittings: in addition to purchasing the lines you
    have to purchase fittings and the epoxy to hold it
    together
  • High Gallonage: if you have more gallonage you
    need a bigger pump
