A sprinkler [[irrigation]] system is a [[Pressure|pressurized]] system, which means it needs water under pressure to work. There are many different types of irrigation sprinklers. Some are used in home gardens, and some are used on farms. ==Permanent systems== A permanent sprinker system is made of a [[pump]] to take water and create pressure, and a network of [[pipe]]s leading to the sprinkler heads. Usually the sprinkler head is on a small pipe that comes out of the ground. ==References== {{unreferenced|date=December 2011}} {{tech-stub}} [[Category:Gardening tools]]
