Controller
Hunter irrigation controllers help manage automatic irrigation schedules for landscape irrigation systems.
Spray Heads and Nozzles
Hunter sprinkler heads and nozzles distribute water over lawns, flower beds, and garden areas.
Solenoid Valves
Hunter solenoid valves are used to control irrigation zones in automatic sprinkler systems.
Hunter Wireless Valve Link
Hunter's wireless valve connection system allows for valve control in situations where wired connections are not the preferred option.
Sensors
Hunter sensors stop the irrigation programme automatically when rainfall or soil moisture makes it unnecessary, reducing water use.
Drip Irrigation
Hunter drip line and micro tubing deliver water straight to the root zone in beds, hedges and planting strips, cutting evaporation and overspray.

Hunter Industries has more than 30 years of experience in residential and commercial irrigation, with products sold in more than 120 countries. Hunter also develops irrigation solutions for agriculture, horticulture and industrial applications. For professional installers and irrigation specialists, Hunter brings together the core components needed to build and maintain automatic sprinkler systems.
The Hunter assortment at Bosta includes irrigation controllers, spray heads, nozzles, solenoid valves and the Hunter wireless valve link system. Visible product examples include the Hunter Irrigation controller X-CORE Indoor, Hunter Rotator plastic female thread, Hunter Solenoid valve diaphragm type PGV and Hunter Swing Joint plastic male thread black. These products are used to control watering schedules, distribute water and manage irrigation zones across a wide range of projects.

Top products from Hunter
Designed for controlled watering in demanding landscapes
Hunter irrigation products are selected for projects where water distribution, zone control and practical system design matter. In agricultural irrigation, Hunter products are linked to pressure management, uniform water application and reduced runoff. In residential landscape irrigation, rotors, MP rotators, nozzles, spray bodies and drippers help apply water where plants need it. For commercial landscapes, controllers, pumps and overhead irrigation components support larger systems with multiple watering zones.
System selection depends on the application. A controller manages watering times, solenoid valves open and close irrigation zones, and spray heads or nozzles determine the water pattern at the installation point. Spare parts are also available for maintaining existing Hunter systems without replacing a complete installation when only one component requires attention.
A Complete Water-Efficient Solution
Why Landscapers Build With Hunter
1. Hydrawise™ Controllers - Wi-Fi · local & remote
Smart control from the unit or the app. Weather data adjusts run times automatically, so the system responds to the season instead of the calendar.
2. Drip Irrigation - Surface & subsurface
Water straight to the root zone. The efficient answer for beds, hedges, trees and narrow strips where spray would overshoot.
3. Pop-up Sprinklers - Small areas to sports turf
Spray bodies for small areas, gear-driven rotors for medium and large lawns. Built for daily cycling and heavy site traffic.
4. MP Rotator® Nozzles - Low precipitation rate
Multi-stream technology delivers water slowly and evenly, so heavy soils and slopes absorb it instead of shedding it.
5. Valves & Fittings - Complete accessory range
Solenoid valves, valve boxes, filters, pressure regulators and swing joints – the parts that decide whether a system stays tight.
A Complete System - Part by Part:
Built for every site, from garden to field
Whether it's a residential garden, a golf course, or a sports field, Hunters irrigation range is built around the same core: controllers, valves, filtration and drip components that scale from a single garden zone to a multi-hectare field. Landscape and agricultural sites place different demands on a system but rather than changing the product range, we adjust the system design to the site, delivering consistent water from source to plant, crop, or turf.
Agricultural & Horticultural
Open-field crops, orchards and nursery or greenhouse growing areas need irrigation that holds pressure and flow uniformity across long runs, not just short garden zones. Hunter's agricultural range, built with Senninger pressure regulation, applies water evenly even on sloped or windy sites, cutting runoff and supporting consistent crop and turf development across the growing area.
Residential Gardens
Hunter Pro Spray bodies and MP Rotator nozzles cover lawns, beds and borders in residential gardens, while drip line and micro tubing handle hedges, trees and planting strips narrower than around a metre. Keeping spray and drip on separate zones stops beds from being over- or under-watered relative to the surrounding lawn, and drip keeps water off paths, walls and windows.
Public Green Space & Parks
Municipal parks and public green space combine large turf areas with planting beds and heavy foot traffic, which calls for zoning by surface type rather than treating the whole site as one area. Hunter Pro-HC and Hydrawise controllers let each zone run on its own schedule, with a wireless rain sensor stopping the programme automatically once rainfall has already done the work.
Golf courses
A golf course holds several distinct turf types in one project, fairways, greens, tees and roughs, each with its own precipitation and watering requirement. Zoning each area separately, rather than irrigating the whole course as a single space, is central to how Hunter systems are designed for larger turf sites.
Sports fields
Football pitches, running tracks and other sports turf need even hydration across the full playing surface to support consistent ball roll and reduce injury risk from patchy or over-saturated ground. Gear-driven rotors with matched precipitation rates keep water application uniform, and programmes can run in off-peak, night-time cycles so the surface is dry and ready before it is in use.
Built for Service
Valve boxes stay accessible, swing joints under rotors are rated for traffic, and drain points are planned in at the design stage rather than added in October. For landscapers and installers, a documented zone plan means the system can be handed over, serviced and extended by any contractor.
Frequently asked questions about Hunter irrigation
Yes. Drip zones normally work at a lower pressure than many other irrigation system types. Hunter offers 25 PSI and 40 PSI pressure regulation options. The 40 PSI system is intended for Hunter PLD inline emitter tubing, which is a pressure compensating system.
The coverage radius depends on the incoming pressure at the sprinkler head. Check the water pressure at the head. A Pro Spray PRS30 is used to maintain 30 psi for tight radius options, while a Pro Spray PRS40 is used to maintain 40 psi for range and performance.
Water may drain from the lowest head in a zone when water remains in the lateral pipework. This is called low head drainage. Water can also escape through the zone valve, often because debris is blocking the valve diaphragm.
A Hunter rotor can be adjusted by arc and radius. The arc changes the rotational pattern covered by the head. The minimum factory setting is 40 degrees for many Hunter rotors, with a maximum of 360 degrees. A Hunter adjustment wrench is used for these adjustments.
A rain sensor can interrupt automatic watering cycles after sufficient rainfall. This helps conserve water and reduces the risk of overwatering plants.
Even though a sensor is not required, it is a good idea to add one to your system. Rain sensors help save water by interrupting any automatic cycles set to run after sufficient rainfall has already fallen. This not only saves money, it also prevents plants from being overwatered.
Different soils yield different "wetted" patterns, so proper coverage depends on your soil type. Sandy soil does not let water spread laterally from the emitter, while clay soil is "tight" and lets water spread further. As a starting point: sandy soil typically uses 1.0 GPH emitters spaced every 30 cm, clay soil can use a lower flow rate (0.6 GPH) with wider spacing (45 cm). The chart below shows the values per soil type.
Soil Type | Sand | Loam | Clay |
|---|---|---|---|
Emitter Distribution | Narrow, deep pattern — water moves mostly straight down, little lateral spread | Balanced pattern — moderate lateral spread with even downward movement | Wide, shallow pattern — water spreads laterally more than it moves downward |
Saturated Rate | 19 – 32 mm/h | 6 – 19 mm/h | 4 – 6 mm/h |
Diameter Coverage | 0.3 – 0.91 m | 0.6 – 1.2 m | 1 – 1.8 m |
Available Water | 0.11 mm/m | 0.16 mm/m | 0.2 mm/m |
