I have reworked and repiped my sprinkler system, and fixed all the leaks.

Now when I turn the ground water pump on, I have good flow and spray from
all the heads, except three heads. These three heads are not at the end
of the run - well, one is, the other two are in the middle of the run.

The only thing common between them, is that they are all for shrubs, so
instead of pop up heads flushed with the ground, I had 18" high risers
then the spray nozzle on top of it. All three of them have no flow
coming out, just droplets of water, while the rest of the heads sprays
perfectly.

I unscrewed one of them and water shoot out, over 10 feet in the sky, so
I have pressure there.

Is it because of the extra height of 18" in the riser causing the nozzle
not to spray?

Thanks,

Jesus Christ. It's almost December, it's snowing outside as I type,
and you're worrying about lawn sprinklers?????

To answer the question, they are clogged. Clean em, or replace em'.

See the "Miami" in the OP sig line? ) Dry season in Florida, not to
mention drought. No
worries about snow blowers here.......

Yeah, what snow? : )
