Sprinkler head cleareance from exterior walls

Anybody have any good articles on sprinkler installations.
I am trying to find distance sprinkler heads should be away from foundation. I would think water back splashing against exterior wall covering would not be good.

Report as such…you can tell them a licensed lawn sprinkler contractor from Arizona told you that they should be 6 inches away…:wink:

If you are in Termite/expansive soil/stucco territory, I would want sprinklers at least a foot from the home (if it was mine).

No sprinklers should hit stucco at all.

James,

Try this link and in the search box use “sprinkler”. You will come up with a good number of informative articles.

Here we go with that “what is wrong with stucco” thing again.
