Sprinkler fitters have busted their rears to build a segment of their industry that is finally about to bear fruit. Plumbers, with all due respect, have no right to it. This is our livelihood and I for one would appreciate it if you respected that. Before we all wip em out and see who’s a better fitter, lets take a moment to look at the core issue.

We have made sereral thousand joints and not had one leak or even had to cut out one joint. Sorry Mr. Sprinkler Fitter you would do well to get the facts the joining method for these systems are so dependable that the system pressure test is only required to be done at actual line pressure. The plumbers are not the problem the plumbers are the solution! Sprinkler fitter is wrong on both counts
