You can cap irrigation by using a PVC pipe cap to seal off a sprinkler head.
Capping a Sprinkler Head: A Step-by-Step Guide
To cap a specific sprinkler head in your irrigation system, follow these instructions:
- Obtain the Correct Cap: Purchase a PVC pipe cap that exactly matches the size of the pipe where your sprinkler head is attached.
- Locate the Sprinkler Head: Find the sprinkler head you wish to cap.
- Remove Sprinkler Head: If necessary, carefully remove the existing sprinkler head from the threaded pipe fitting.
- Attach the PVC Cap: Place the PVC pipe cap onto the exposed threads of the pipe fitting.
- Secure the Cap: Rotate the PVC pipe cap clockwise to secure it tightly onto the system. This will seal off that specific sprinkler head and prevent water from flowing there.
By following these steps, you can effectively cap off individual sprinkler heads in your irrigation system as required.
