I installed my own 6 head Rainbird sprinkler system. I put in two self draining attachments that came with it but I was not particularly careful about how level the lines were in the ditch I dug. We live up north were it gets extremely cold so I thought I would blow it out as well. Some where I read that you should take out the nozzles which I did. I used a 2hp compressor and set it to 50 psi and attached it to the line. Only one head came up and some water sprayed out.
My concern is that there is still water in the lines?
Should I have left the spray heads in?
Is a 2 HP compressor not enough?
Will the lines have drained sufficiently with the self draining lines I put in?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, new member, Randy
