I can't emphasize enough: YMMV. Those who irrigate with potable water likely have fewer problems. I have irrigation water that must be pretty clean. A lot of the problems mentioned in other threads were from those south of 44.

You are in a minority. Typically the non-potable water is full of sediment when the ponds are low and we don't have a lot of rain. For those who use potable water I wouldn't expect any problems.
Since I've installed an in-line irrigation filter, in the past 4 years since I've lived here I haven't had to replace any filters,
zero and when I check the spray head filters are clean. But I'm always sad watching my neighbors who don't want to spend the money installing an in-line filter but spend money having an Irrigation company come and
replace spray heads every single year.
