Abstract:
A riser assembly for an irrigation system, including a first riser segment attached to a supply line and a second riser segment attached to the first riser segment at a first end and to a sprinkler at the second end. The riser assembly also includes a control valve which may be inserted between the second riser segment and a sprinkler gun. The various segments and the control valve and sprinkler are all coupled employing mechanical couplings which permit a degree of flexion at the coupling or joint. The first riser segment is formed of a section of PVC pipe and the second riser section is formed of a segment of copper alloy pipe.
