Lawn sprayers are more durable than garden sprayers and are designed to perform many large-scale home improvement tasks. Most often, these sprayers are available as towed trailer sprayers, skid mount lawn sprayers, ATV sprayers, or stationary on baseplates. Lawn sprayers can be used for a variety of residential or commercial landscaping projects, including the spraying of lawns and turf, golf course grounds, orchards, or fire control. Lawn sprayers can handle a variety of heavy-duty products, including insecticides, fungicides, and fertilizers. 

Types of Lawn Sprayers

Lawn sprayers come in many types which can be used for a variety of different applications and jobs. They include:

• Tow-Behind / Trailer

• ATV / Four-Wheeler

• Broadcast

• Spot 

• Backpack

• Handheld

• Turf

• 3-Point

• Skid & Utility

Lawn sprayers all feature a durable tank suited to carry large quantities of chemical products throughout a lawn or field, and a powerful pump. From there, lawn sprayers can be outfitted with hoses and spray wands, or versatile booms with interchangeable spray nozzles and tips to suit the application. 

Large Capacity Tanks

Lawn sprayers have a durable and weather-resistant large-capacity tank. Many tanks have extra thick walls that are UV-resistant that are compatible with RoundUp and other challenging or erosive chemicals. 

Durable Materials

Most manufacturers choose the most durable materials for their products in order to ensure both the safety of the user and the longevity of the tank. This includes materials like Santoprene™ diaphragms or Viton® valves. 

Lawn Sprayer Booms

Booms are an important component of the lawn sprayer that allows for precise application of chemicals. Booms have built-in valves for flow control and for directing application to the left, right, and center sections. Many also include a pressure gauge which allows the user to finely tune spray pressure. This allows for the sprayers height to be adjustable for precision spraying in perimeter, narrow strip, or full broadcast applications. 

Sprayer Care and Considerations

You should always inspect your lawn sprayer prior to use. Check for wear or deterioration in all parts of the spray equipment including the pump, hoses, nozzles, axles, bearings, and boom.
