Hunter MP Rotator MPSS530 Side Strip - 5ft x 30ft Irrigation

Overview

The Hunter MP Rotator MPSS530 Side Strip introduces a distinctive multi-trajectory rotating stream delivery system that promotes water efficiency, providing multiple streams that rotate to cover the strip evenly. This approach helps soil soak-in more gently and supports uniform moisture along narrow edges, making it ideal for side strips and border irrigation.

Designed to improve how water reaches the root zone, the MPSS530 Side Strip works with precision rather than a single, broad spray. The result is a more controlled application that can help landscapes establish even moisture levels across the targeted area without pooling on the surface.

Key benefits

• Estimated up to 30% less water use compared with traditional spray heads, helping conserve water while maintaining coverage.
• Distributes water at a steady rate across the target area, reducing wasteful runoff and surface oversaturation.
• Retrofits easily—it can be installed on most conventional spray head bodies or shrub adapters, simplifying upgrades.
• Offers significant range flexibility, making it a strong option for new systems with varied layouts and future expansion.

Practical use cases

• Ideal for side strips, narrow borders along walkways, walls, and garden beds where even coverage matters.
• Works well on irregular landscapes or slopes where traditional sprays may over-water some areas and under-water others.
• Suitable for upgrading existing irrigation setups without a full system overhaul, thanks to easy compatibility.

Design tips and maintenance

Plan the layout around plantings, soil type, and sun exposure to maximize efficiency. For slopes, consider staggered placement to improve infiltration and minimize runoff. Keep nozzles clear and verify pressure stays within recommended ranges to maintain smooth, rotating streams.

Seasonality and soil absorption should guide placement and run times. The MPSS530 Side Strip delivers a balanced, multi-stream distribution that supports healthy soil moisture without excess runoff.
