Cost effective
A major advantage for the cranberry grower is that the Hunter
1-20 High Pop-up Sprinkler is permanently installed underground and will save
the expense of installing heads in the spring and removing them in the fall.
When the l-20s are not in operation they descend below ground level so bog
equipment such as weed wipers, weed cutters, herbicide machines and harvesting
equipment can pass over them without having to remove them or having to avoid
those areas.
Hayward Y-Strainer
 Each Hunter 1-20 HP System requires filtration on the
main line. The Hayward Y-strainer offers excellent filtration at an affordable
price.

Hunter
 The Hunter 1-20 HP is a 12" pop-up rotor sprinkler featuring full arc
or adjustable arc and can be used with or without a check valve. This commercial
grade sprinkler out performs traditional impact sprinkler heads that are used
in the cranberry industry. It is also backed with a 5 year warranty.
We, at Hayden Manufacturing
Co., Inc., have been supplying the Hunter I-20 Sprinklers to local cranberry
growers over the past few years and they are very pleased with them.
Raymond St.
Jacques, of Hayden Mfg., along with several others, has been attending meetings
headed by the CCCGA to move this cost sharing plan forward and bring it into
effect.
Hayden Mfg, Company can provide you with the Hunter I-20 HP
Sprinklers and all other supplies needed for your cost sharing renovations.

Proven
In the fall of 2004 the CCCGA hired the Center for Irrigation
Technology (CIT) at CA State University to evaluate the Hunter 1-20 High
Pop-up Sprinklers performance. The results were surprisingly good and found
that the co- efficient of uniformity can be as high as 91% in some cases.
The results met the USDA, NRCS standards, in doing so, cranberry
growers will be eligible for cost sharing of these labor saving-cost effective-high
performance sprinkler heads.
