Please don't use the term "mechanic" when referring to a person who repairs and/or installs residential sprinklers. The learning curve on this handyman job is about 4 weeks whereas a real mechanic ( machinery repairman ) typically goes through a lengthy apprenticeship of from 4 to 7 years including formal classroom education and progressive certifications before becoming a journeyman which includes ongoing education throughout his or her career. Mechanics also consult with and/or assist electrical and mechanical engineers with newer innovations, designs and field testing.
