History
Developed in 2017 as a viable low water pressure alternative to our Impact Rainmaker, the DA Rainmaker was well accepted. We manufactured the body in-house and purchased the sprinkler heads from Moss - Australia.
2023 saw Moss close their doors and the supply of suitable quality Australian made sprinklers dried up. We decided to develop our own sprinkler and after 6 months we came up with the Drencher Sprinkler head, this head had a 1/2" thread instead of the 3/4" on the Moss so we used and reducer to continue to use the original DA body, we also change the name to the Aussie Drencher. At the end of 2024 we developed the new stainless steel body to suit our sprinkler head, this made for a more compact and uniform set-up. Late 2025 we added a inline filter to the body to help prevent any blockages. We are currently developing kits to help home owners protect their property during a ember attack.
