Irrigation Popup
 
To the gentleman I spoke to today (2/12) {Brooklyn accent} about raising irrigation popup, I found a solution! Buy a 4 inch coupler and the shortest piece of 4 inch pipe. I cut the coupling about 1.5 inches wide, and the same for the pipe. I put the coupling on the popup, and the pipe into the coupling, and then inserted this assembly onto the pipe in the ground. Perfect fit and height.
Now, I have 1/2 of a coupling and several inches of pipe, so if this finds you contact me and I will make up an adapter for you.

They have pipes made for this. You adjust to the size you need.

Yes, ACE Hardware. You can adjust it in one inch increments to raise the pop-up height as needed.

Yes, if there were any in stock, they also make adapters that work well also not in stock, this is a work around since we could not find anything in stock at ACE, Loe's or Home Depot.
