Rain Bird 32ETI Easy to Install In-Ground Automatic Sprinkler System Kit, Black

Set it all up which took over 4 hours- reading instructions, mapping out, laying tube, cutting, prepping and attaching sprinklers, connecting up. Tested one and worked ok, so I could gauge distances and adjust. Tested 2 and the sprinkler just flooded out water (didn’t spray it) soaking the immediate area. Tried all 6 and all but one flooded too- the same one sprayed ok. Now not sure if it’s my setup, faulty sprinklers or what? No Rainbird support option?! And timer attachment doesn’t seal to the faucet. Wasted me hours and know it’ll take me ages to pack it up to return!

The installation of the pipe and sprinklers was straightforward. However when conducting the test, the automatic timer leaked every time the water supply was turned on, rendering the whole installation useless. The timer has been returned and I am awaiting the response as regards replacement of the timer or refund for the whole purchase. It is rare for me to be disappointed about an item purchased through Amazon, but this one certainly did disappoint.

The timer stopped working after 1 week of installation. I cannot find any warranty details or how to get the timer stopped. It fails to turn the water supply off. The rest is working as expected.

It says it covers 3000sq ft with 6 sprinklers, no way does it do that for me, pressure is good in my outside tap but still didn’t work, now we have connected two sprinklers on one tap and only 3 on another , set timers (which I had to buy another timer) at different times to gain full pressure on each in middle of the night, the two work well but the three don’t work at all, heads don’t pop up and just floods around the sprinkler,for me the whole process was a waste of time and money.

Un sistema básico pero funcional, lo instalé y funciona correctamente, tengo 3 meses que lo ocupo.

Love these, however if you have good water pressure the timer and plug find it hard not to leak. My flow valve also just broke when tightening so need replacement.

I’d been looking into having a sprinkler system installed for our front and backyard for a few years now. The thing holding me back was the cost (multiple quotes avg $3000-$3500). So when I came across this lot on amazon I figured why not give it a try. Right out of the box i saw it was well organized and packaged. The instructions were very user friendly. Make sure you check your water pressure at your house because according the manual, it needs to be a min 6 gallons per minute. This is where I was further impressed. Turns out my house runs at 5 gallons per minute. So I called Rain Bird customer service and found them to be very helpful and polite. I decided to go ahead and install. The easy part was putting all the parts together. The hard part was taking EXACT MEASUREMENTS of my front and backyard, then digging all the trenches to bury the tubing and sprinkler heads. Make sure your measurements are precise, otherwise you’ll spend hours of back breaking work just to realize that you have to start from square one. Other than that, the system was more than adequate for my needs, timers works great and is also very user friendly. Parts in this kit are obviously not the same quality as a professionally installed system (I compared with my neighbour’s professionally installed Rain Bird system, same model home and lot) and the differences were negligible. Overall, great bang for your buck if you’re willing to put in a days worth of blood, sweat and tears. Even if it only lasts a few seasons, I still saved thousands of dollars. Works great, would highly recommend.

Preis- Leistung ist absolut klasse. Schnell verlegt reicht das für die meisten Gärten

I've been really pleased with my Rain Bird system so far. I'm going to write a pretty extensive review, and will update it, if necessary, as the system ages. I purchased 3 of these systems to cover my entire yard. Square footage wise, I don't need 18 sprinkler heads, but I have a very uniquely shaped lot, and wanted to ensure 100% coverage. I got a number of quotes for professional irrigation installation, the lowest being $4,200, so buying three of these systems was a no brainer. I spent a LOT of time researching these and planning the system for my yard. I have two systems running out of a spigot on the side of my house with pretty good flow rate ~8 gpm during "peak usage" time, closer to 10 at 5 AM when I plan to run the system. The spigot on the back of my house, however, has a much slower flow rate of about ~5 gpm, with little improvement, regardless of time of day. What I decided to to was to separate one system into 2 individual three-sprinkler "runs" and have them both run out of a programmable 4 nozzle timer I already have. So I have a spare Rainbird timer in storage for when one of the ones in use breaks down (many reviews state those are the first parts to go). So, with everything installed, I have 18 sprinkler heads in the ground, divided into four separate zones that run at different times (5:00-5:10, 5:12-5:22, 5:24-5:34 & 5:36-5:46). Between 5 AM and 6 AM my entire yard is thoroughly watered (including shrubs, flower beds, etc). I have 2 zones with 6 sprinkler heads each coming out of my stronger spigot and 2 zones with 3 heads each coming out of my weaker spigot. Obviously, I set all this up prior to doing any digging, to verify that it would all work without any complications. I have been very pleased. So, I had to do A LOT of digging! In hindsight, I should have rented a trencher from Home Depot for 4 hrs and would have knocked this whole thing out a lot sooner. Because of the heat and the extensive amount of rocks under my lawn, I had to divide this project up into three days to get it done. The box isn't wrong, you CAN install ONE system in a day, but plan to put in some significant work! Some tips/tricks/notes from my installation: If you aren't able to soften up the tubing in the sun and don't have a heat gun, use a hair drier, like I did. Made inserting the connection pieces much easier. Measure twice, cut (hopefully) once - duh, I know, but careful planning made this a much more manageable task. Give yourself some "slack" - I gave each run a few extra feet of tubing (maybe ~3ft) to account the sprinkler heads needing to be buried deeper than the hose. To ensure the sprinkler head is straight, you'll need to gradually deepen your trench as it approaches the hole for the actual sprinkler. I know this sounds like common sense, but it actually took some trial and error to get just right. Be ready to buy "extras" - I had to buy an extra 50ft of tubing, some extra elbows, as well as a replacement regulator piece (I broke it by over-tightening it). I also purchased a bag of pea gravel to surround the drainage outputs underground. Ensure your existing spigots are in good shape and don't need to be tightened or replaced. I didn't typically leave my spigots on all the time before installing the system, so I found both of them had a slow drip. All it required was a simple tightening, but it's something to be mindful of and to check periodically to avoid any surprise water bills. All in all, I'm really pleased with the system so far. For under 500 dollars and 3 afternoons of hard work, I now have a pretty high quality irrigation system, complete with 18 sprinkler heads, that fully waters my lawn and surrounding beds.
