Splash shields for sprinkler heads

[Big Lou]

We recently had our usual irrigation shop come in move sprinkler lines and change heads to minimize water overspray wetting our main deck. In theory the new placement is ideal. In use the deck is getting much more overspray.

Has anyone had to deal with such a situation and what did you do to resolve the problem?

Splash guards from home depot or lowes, green things you put between the water and the house or deck.

Are you referring to the Orbit brand guards? Have you used them successfully? Thanks.

I am not sure of the brand they are green with two wire legs to stick in the ground

They work great, keep the water off the house, we use them down in florida. I don't water up here, except the veg garden.
found it they are orbit

Thanks Addy. Yep, those are by Orbit. Glad to know they work as advertised.

Problem solved. Had the heads adjusted for the third time. I sat ther this time and had that zone tested for 10 minutes.
