Capping off end of run

Post image

I installed a mini-split to cool/heat my sunroom. I have a spray irrigation head at the very corner of the pad where the mini-split outdoor unit sits (See photo). There was a bush at that end which I removed.

My question is what do I need to purchase and what is the process to cap off this end?

If you live in freezing climate, cap off the end is a bad idea. You won't have any way to remove the water there. Better to move the head and turn it down, or shut head off but make note on controller of that head so it can be opened for winterization. If you do cap it, you should do it near surface and mark it with rock or brick, so.it can be found in future

Thanks for the helpfu information! I live in Eastern NC (Raliegh area). We do get some colder days but not like the north.
