idea_small.gif Misters in a flowerbed

I need some help on some misters installed in 4 flowerbeds. I don't do irrigation but this is a small job for a church and they want the same person to be able to do the whole job. They already have water to the flower beds stub into a water-box. The beds are in the corners of a new parking lot and irregular shape but average around 15' x 20' and will be basically planted with evergreens shrubs ( i.e. dwarf yaupons...) low maintenance type plants. They want no zones just to be able to turn one valve on and water. I was thinking maybe 4 pop up misters per bed. Any insight on this would be very appreciative. I have to turn in the bed by the end of the week. Thank You in advance.

Thats an easy one. Install a manual anti-siphon valve, use some Rain Bird 1806 or 1812 pop-up spray heads and space accordingly. probably 15' nozzles and you're good to go. don't forget to istall your heads on triple swing joints, use SCH 80 nipples on the anti-siphon valve and make sure you have enough available flow and pressure to run everything on one valve before you install the system
