MP Rotators and standard spray nozzles apply water differently. Hunter HydroTech generally prefers standard spray nozzles for ordinary spray zones.
When an MP Rotator may make sense
An MP Rotator may be useful when a rotor zone contains a smaller area near a porch or structure that still needs coverage. A rotator nozzle can help serve the smaller space without introducing a standard high-precipitation spray nozzle into the rotor zone.
Why Hunter HydroTech avoids unnecessary mixing
Standard sprays and rotors normally have different precipitation rates. Mixing them on one zone can cause one area to receive too much or too little water.
Use the right product for the zone
Standard sprays are preferred for normal small-area spray zones. Rotator nozzles are reserved for situations where their application rate and pattern better match the existing zone.
